The Celebrity Haiku Competition.</strong></p>
<p>Usual prize up for grabs: two whole packets of delicious Space Raiders crisps. The best intergalactic-themed corner shop snack in existence? Damn right. And you could be in with a chance of munching down on &#39;em within, oohh, a week or so. Possibly.</p>
<p>This week we&#39;re looking at pompous fashion-fascists <strong>Trinny And Susannah</strong>. But &#8211; before we kick off our festivities &#8211; let&#39;s just see who claimed victory last week&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-10840"></span> Seven days ago, we asked you to come up with the best haiku about the fact that<strong> The Queen </strong>had been voted one of the world&#39;s most glamorous women by<em> Vogue</em> magazine. The winner was a chap called<strong> Sparkymike,</strong> whose poetic ode ran like this:</p>
<p><em><strong>Elizabeth reigns</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong> Vogue thinks she is glamorous</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>(The Braille edition)</strong></em></p>
<p>Pretty good, sonny-boy. Send us your details and we&#39;ll send you your crisps.</p>
<p>As for the rest of you, why don&#39;t you take a look at this week&#39;s subject:</p>
<p><strong>TV fashion presenters Trinny And Susannah say they don&#39;t feel guilty about making their unfortunate &#39;makeover&#39; victims frequently burst into tears.</strong></p>
<p>All you have to do is remember the golden haiku rule: five syllables, seven syllables, five syllables. Technically &#8211; as someone called<strong> JBollocks </strong>wrote to tell us &#8211; you&#39;re not really allowed to split lines over verses, but we&#39;re a rebellious bunch here at <strong>hecklerspray</strong>, so we don&#39;t much care if you do that or not. An example would look like this:</p>
<p><em><strong>Trinny and her pal</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>want to change your clothes. Why not</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>tell them to fuck off?</strong></em></p>
<p>Think you can do better? Entries in the comment box, kids&#8230;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Fact: most revivals are bad.

Star Wars. The Happy Mondays. Chris Evan's career. In fact, take a look at any attempt to bring back a cultural milestone and you'll notice that the end result is invariably cack-based.

One thing that has long been overdue a resurgence, however, is hecklerspray's Celebrity Haiku Competition. Okay, okay, so maybe we're confusing 'cultural milestone' with 'something to do if you've got a spare five minutes to tit around on a Monday', but that's just semantics.

'Hold on a second,' some of you may be screaming. 'I'm relatively new to hecklerspray. What is this Celebrity Haiku Competition of which you speak? Tell me! Dear Christ, tell me, or else mother won't get her food parcel thrown down into the basement today.'

Calm yourselves. Details after the jump...

More... Basically, right, Celebrity Haiku Competition (or CHC, as all the cool kids call it, or will assuredly do so one day) does exactly what it says on the tin. Each week we take a topical celebrity story and ask you, dear readers, to compose your very own haiku about it. The winner receives a very special prize.

Two whole packets of Space Raiders crisps. 

So, then: if you want to be in with the chance to win a double-set of the finest alien-based budget snacks on the market, simply get your poetry-scribblin' glands on standby and compose an ode to this week's story:

Beehive-haired warbler Amy Winehouse has been dropped as the vocalist for the new James Bond film theme song.

All you have to do is remember the golden rule of haiku: five syllables, seven syllables, five syllables. An example - based on this week's topic - would look a little something like this:

Girl who sang 'rehab'

finds herself cast off from new

double-oh seven

Yeah, yeah - that was rubbish. We know. And that's why we're giving you the chance to do, like, six million times better. Entries in the comments box below, if you please...
