Anyway, I'm wondering who's going to take on (and most probably over-sing) the "...Have you beggin' please, beggin' pleeeeease" line.

Scott, are you needlessly exposing yourself to libel by suggesting that Eric Clapton's infant son was *thrown out* of the window? I could have sworn the rugrat fell accidentally -- but hey, if you want Slowhand to sue the bejeezus out of you, carry on regardless...

Wasn't that the song he wrote when his son died unexpectedly by falling off a balcony? I understand that tsunami relief funds dictate that something really syrupy and cheesy be used (mmm, syrup and cheese... kidding!), but don't you think he'd protect his own song from such an awful idea?

And how DOES the music industry come up with these kind of stinkers so easily, anyway?

Interesting music news from this side of the pond? Hmm. Supermodel Kate Moss and erstwhile Libertine Pete Doherty are said to be "all over one another" these days. A BBC poll says The Bravery is music's hottest new act. I must have had my head in the sand, because apparently they're from New York and sounds like The Cure and New Order. Not so interesting, then. What else? Portishead have almost completed their third record. My friend's band 'The Culture Industry' split up, dumped all their old songs, got back together and have decided to head in an entirely new direction. But they need a new name. Any suggestions welcome, though I suspect pretentious references to German philosophers are a little passe...

Somehow I can't comprehend Weiland and Ozzy being on the same record as the male Celine Dion aka Josh Groban and being produced by Simon Cowell!

I'd be willing to donate a good sum of money towards tsunami relief efforts to get them to cease recording this travesty.

I'm wondering if Simon is going to tell Kelly, Gwen and Pink that they are fat.

I thought that the Osbourne's didn't like Simon Cowell?

Kelly O's enormously fat face makes me feel very blessed that I dont look like that. People should be bashing her the way they do ASimpson, cause she is a terrible fucking celebrity in her own right. Why wont she just go away? Cant we ship her back over the pond?

Kelly is proof that talent isn't inherited.

LOL, I think her head and face weigh more than the whole rest of her body. Jack is also an ugly bastard, but he is more tolerable than that Kelly.
