>> It's hip to CHiP! <<
Gay Ponch roleplay sweeps LA
There's an interesting new fad in the LA gay
scene. Partners get dressed up as California
Highway Patrol Officers, and cruise around
on Harleys. It's most commonly practiced by
Latino and Caucasian gay couples.
The behaviour is known as "CHiPing".

>> Big Questions <<
What people are asking this week
Which sports presenter shagged his friend's
17-year-old daughter on a sofa, while her dad
was in the next room?
Which pop pixie's on/off boyfriend has also
enjoyed man-love with both George Michael and
famous trannie Darren Pleased Wimmin?
-------------------------------------------------------
Kevin Backstreet gets his eyebrows waxed at the
Sager-French salon in LA.

>> Warren's robust scrotum <<
Duran penis now available to own
Last year we revealed that Duran Duran guitarist
Warren Cuccurrulo was having his penis moulded
in latex to produce a realistic "Warren knob" dildo.
Well, Warren fans, the "Rock Rod" is now finally
available. According to the advert, it's a "fully
detailed rock & roll thrusting cock with robust
scrotum". See the ad:

>> Big Brother: The Horror <<
House built on site of The Shining
The Big Brother house is this year at Elstree
Film Studios, and is built on the location
where horror movie The Shining was filmed.
Mr X writes:
"There is an area of land right next to the Big
Brother house which is enclosed and was
the set for the house in the hills where Jack
Nicholson went all 'Here's Johnny' on us. They used
some sort of salt lime to create the illusion of
snow and it has contaminated the ground ever since."
So when obvious lunatic Spencer goes mental and
kills the other inmates with an axe, you'll know
where he's coming from...

>> Das Jackass <<
Germany embraces pain-TV
Jackass has been re-made in Germany
(though under a different name, obviously)
One of its stunts involves a man climbing
to the top of a tree - and then some other
men cut the tree down. Ouch.

>> Goodbye pop, hello rock <<
Max Martin and Nick Backstreet go metal
The boom in pop music that has occured over the
last four years was largely a result of one
man: Max Martin.
Once the vocalist in Swedish heavy metal band Its
Alive, Max went on to write Britney's Baby One More
Time, along with her other hits and most of
Backstreet Boys and N Sync's big records.
But now Max is returning to rock. And the good
news is, he's taking Nick Backstreet with him.
Nick has always had a great rock voice, and has been
laying the groundwork for a rock career by getting
arrested in nightclubs and featuring heavily on
GroupieCentral.com for his snow'n'skank habits.
Now Nick is in Stockholm recording a rock solo album
with the great Max. Oh joy.
Want to see what Max looks like?

>> Encounters with Ozzy <<
Readers recall meetings with Mr Osbourne
Muggins writes:
"Ozzy walked in to a chip shop in Amersham (where
his UK residence is), in full goth rock clothes.
The assistant greeted him with 'Bat and chips
is it, Sir?"
"Ozzy looked at him deadpan, turned round and
walked out".

>> Appletons not the new Osbournes<<
Dumb and Dumber prepare to film their lives
The Appletons have defected to Polydor, who are
hoping that the switch will magically make the
lame ducks into pop swans - Sugababes style.
To celebrate, Natalie and Nicole are making a
documentary about themselves - to coincide with
their double autobiographies. They're currently
filming in Disneyland Paris.
FYI: Contrary to tabloid speculation, the Appletons
weren't dropped by Warners. They negotiated their way
out (paying back their advance) as their working
relationship with the label had become so appalling
(egged on by the Liams, thinking they should be treated
like stars - just like them). Plus they hated that Shaznay
and Mel Blatt are still associated with the label.

Wanky Craig, SAGAPO, Fuller-Kylie
David Hasslehoff is not the only Baywatch star with
an unlikely pop career in Europe. David Charvet has
just released his second album Jusqu'au bout (Leap of
Faith), and its set for an Autumn release in the UK.
Bryan Adams has been helping him write songs.
http://www.davidcharvet.net
Big Brother rumours no.375: Craig often used to wank
in front of the mirrors singing "It's only a game
show" - knowing they would never show it.
Greece's Eurovision entry rules! The man behind it,
Michalis Rackintzis, was the first musician in
Greece to use computers to write music. He studied
in Britain, and joined a UK reggae group in the 80s -
Scraptown, which had a minor European hit with Viva
Sahara. Michalis' greatest experience? Performing
on stage with Ian Gillan...

It's rumoured that Simon Fuller is looking to lure
Kylie away from her long-term management. Cathy
Dennis's songwriting (Can't Get You Out of My Head)
is being used as the bait.
