Mark Ronson and Aaliyah, Circa 1999

Oh my god (or should that be “gold”? – GEDDIT?!). Just when I thought Mark Ronson couldn’t become anymore attractive, I found this Tommy Hilfiger ad from 1999. He is all wigga’d up with a shaved head. And he is modelling with THE Aaliyah (may she rest in peace). Who is wearing an amazingly bad […]

The Ultimate Star Spotting: Chasing Amy

When I moved to London from Melbourne, I wanted to see celebs – lots of them. It took me a while but eventually we were at a pub is Islington for our work Christmas dinner and who walks in but Jude Law (!!!). Sadie Frost was also there, as well as what I could gather […]

Howl Change “Un-Googleable” Name, Remain “Un-Googleable”

Triple J Unearthed High winners (2009) Howl have decided to change their name, because no one can find them on the internetz. “Howl may well be the most unGoogle-able artist name since [inaugural triple j Unearthed High winners] Is,” said a press release from management.

The Most Embarrassing Songs on the Internet

Last.FM’s Playground is a place where they test out fun new ideas and projects they are working on. My favourite one is the Most Unwanted Scrobbles section, which shows which songs were “unscrobbled” the most by Last.FM users. If you’re unfamiliar with the site, “scrobbling” is the function which uploads all the songs you’ve listened […]

Am I The Last Person to Know About Andrew W.K’s Sham Career?

Andrew WK seems to be enjoying a resurgence in popularity of late. He played at Meredith a couple of years ago (to be fair, he was kind of sucky though) and people seem to be pretty pumped that he’s coming to play at the Big Day Out next year. His early noughties party anthems are […]

The Best Midnight Juggernauts Interview of All Time

Midnight Juggernauts are one of my favourite bands ever. They come from Melbourne, where I come from. The first time I saw them was in a bouncy castle at a warehouse party at this place which is an old lingerie warehouse. It has a big sign out the front that says “Irene’s Lingerie”. People lived […]

Where is This Guy’s Publicist?

I’m pretty sure celebrities have whole teams of people dedicated to making sure they don’t fall out of clubs boozed out of their minds. Kid Cudi’s peeps must have been on holidays. This is what happened when he tried to leave a club somewhere in Hollywood the other night. Far from being shocked and embarrassed, […]

Things I have learnt about London

I’ve been in London for two and half months now so I should probably write something London related. Here is a list coz I’m feeling lazy. • Don’t stand on the left hand side of the escalator in the tube station. You will be punched in the head. • The tube is hot and gross. […]
