Band Aid to lead new charity feeding single Posted: 15 Dec 2008 05:16 PM CST At this time of year we are reminded of the unfortunates, who have so little and that is quite right too. We all need to show compassion. Band Aid showed the way with their record breaking charity singles and concerts and so many thin, malnourished people were helped by Bob Geldof's campaigns. Following the wider audience x factor has been reaching, there are calls for Band Aid to come back with another fund raiser for the starving. Are we talking war torn Chad, or Zimbabwe or Ethiopia? No dear readers. This year, it seems the campaign will be targeted towards Cheryl Tramp Stamp Cole, who has left viewers gasping and almost running for the double chocolate muffins, as she appeared week after week visibly thinner. To such a degree that when she turned sideways, it was virtually impossible to see her. cheryl cole is a bad role image Only a few years ago when she joined Girls Aloud, Cheryl was a plump and curvy girl. As soon as her low self esteem issues took hold and her determination to snag a footballer player became her main purpose in life, she slimmed and slimmed down to frightening and dangerous proportions, until she is now nothing more than a bag of bones, and being quite tall, it makes her appearance more ghoulish and bedraggled. For a supposed role model to young girls, she is dangerously thin. body genocide from der furher Glamour magazines, lad's mags and fashion photos pressure young girls into losing weight and becoming shadows of the proportions they should naturally be. This is almost body genocide and the jackbooted storm troopers in our pop industry, march ever forward stamping their vision of a utopia filled with uber thin waiflets. Cheryl Cole is der fuhrer in chief with her Biafaran body size and blondening hair. cole needs help and fast Last Saturday's final saw her draped in a medieval cape style frock in a silver fabric. She looked like a tinfoil wrapped turkey twizzler.  Cherly Cole is too thin and hopefully, Sir Bob Geldof and Band Aid will be able to come  to her rescue quickly. Their original call was "feed the world". Now its more a case of "Feed the Cole". Candy Warhol “Forget the uncle … I’m anti celebrity” Share This

Alexandra burke halleluiah is fastest selling download song Posted: 15 Dec 2008 04:04 PM CST Fresh from her sweep to victory at Saturdays x factor final Alexandra burke has entered British records as the fastest download in history selling 105,000 mp3s in one day. She has now eclipsed last year's x factor winner leona lewis who previously held the record with 85,000 downloads in one day. Burke family press the button Years ago I remember it was a fantastic achievement to gain a number 1 single or break a record. Now, it seems anyone with a computer and a mobile phone can decide who tops the charts. I can just imagine Alexandra's family including her love cheat Dad sat around the BT Home hub frantically downloading the single all day in order to boost sales. This is some timely good news for alexandra, whose two timing husband stealing fetish hit the headlines yesterday. Especially since she has beaten Leona's second achievement and also clouded over her kinky sex tape scandals. Simon Cowell laughs all the way to the bank It is though, Simon Cowell who will truly be singing Halleluiah. With a large slice of any royalties that the finalists make, he is laughing all the way to the bank, on top of his £30m a year deal with ITV for the factor. This year's calls raked in over £4 million for the show headed by Cowell's own Syco TV. Leona Lewis is yesterday's old mashed potatoes Leona Lewis signed a five year deal and has so far earned over £6 million. But even Cowell has given signals he is bored with her and sees a short shelf life. He has vowed to make Alexandra burke a much bigger star than Leona. A source said "He (Cowell) thinks she can be an international star. He thinks she is better than Leona", signalling a bitter feud is about to break out between the two x factor soul divas. This is potentially part of another record, because if she hit's the Christmas number 1 spot, Alexandra burke will be the first artist to have had two number 1's in the space of a month. The other being the 'Heroes' charity single. But at least that was a real single rather than a cyberspace digital download. Poor Leona. She has had massive success, five times platinum album sales and it looks like Mr. Cowell is about to leave her standing. Perhaps she should record a version of judy garland's don't rain on my parade as her next song choice. Share This
