...little bones of glee.
As I sit in the warm glow of another episode of mocked-up, schlocked-up, Z-Factor farce. I'm reminded of what bizarre tosh this pop merry-go-round has become. The thin veneer of respectability has fallen away, the strings are visible, I can see cogs turning people!
The last two weeks has seen the return of two "legends" Robbie and Whitney. Who've both attempted to come back to the pop fold but both seem terrified and bewildered to be back amongst the merry throng. "Blimey it's a bit weird in here innit" they seemed to say through coked-up boggle eyes. I love Robbie and I love Whitney, FACT, but X-Factor has got too downright strange, it's not fair to invite the coked up dinosaurs to come round for tea. You'll only scare them!
Fictional pop and the real deal are no longer easy bed fellows. The transfer used to be seamless, but now it appears that we haven't just seen behind the wizards curtain...we live behind it!
FACT VS. FICTION
Lady Gaga - Love Games

The Mighty Boosh - Love Games
OR
Boy Better Know - Too Many Man
VS.
Flight of The Conchords - Too Many Dicks
Which of these acts will be singing for survival tonight?
The voting lines have now closed...your call may not be counted, but you may still be charged.
The truth is officially stranger than fiction.
