    It's ridiculous for the Daily Fail to complain about sexy ads when 50% of the paper is devoted to vag shots of D-list British celebrities.

    There's more underage sex, nudity, drug use and violence in any two minutes of the British TV drama "Skins" (aired here only in a censored version) than in all the American Apparel ads put together. So, perverts, heal thyselves, or something like that.

    Good Lord. I masturbate at least as often to the Disney Channel as I do to American Apparel ads, but no one seems to be concerned about that.

    The guy's got to be an excellent dancer, or he wouldn't be on tour with Madonna; he has the moves down pat, technically speaking, but compared to MJ he looks like a flailing amateur. Jackson had a completely different way of moving, far more controlled and yet full of ease.


    I think Janet might have come close in her prime, but only close. No one else compares.

    "Haig-Thomas has noted that he "doesn't necessarily share (Irving's) views," but he sure as hell doesn't condemn them." Foster, this is just a British thing. It's a way of saying no, without being so brash as to say it directly.

    Of course, the next photo in the sequence is the entire family lobster-red the following day, in the tradition of English families everywhere.


    I do find it interesting that the trunks in the photo are much closer to Daniel Craig Bondwear than Speedos. Hm.

    @Zapp Brannigan: @muppet_baby: I'm torn here. On the one hand, she clearly had good intentions. But isn't it insulting to suggest that some imitator in MJ drag is sufficient? A video clip would have been better. I mean, does she want Britney Spears someday saying "Give it up for the Queen" while some old lady in a wedding dress and blond wig dry humps the floor?

    Interesting Talk of the Town in the current New Yorker about Manu Dibango, a longtime African pop pioneer, from whom Jackson apparently cribbed -- without credit -- the "key Mama Se bridge." [www.newyorker.com]

    I mean really, in the 80's Madonna and MJ were like PB&(M)J. Save for maybe Prince and Bruce Springsteen, Madonna and Michael were the most important stars of the time. And they knew it. Glad to see there is still some camaraderie - even if Madonna is only stoked to get a glimpse of what kind of send-off she can expect when she kicks.
