Inside The Trial Of The Century

You know, it has been brought to my attention on previous occasions that I may be a little strange. For those people, I have never had much time.
Because it's player-haters like that who would tell you that deciding to attend the rivetting Brad Willis v Flick Scully case at the supreme court on your day off is sheer craziness.
Luckily I ignored such imagined poo-pooing and went anyway.
The session was due to start at 10am, and I got there with at least 20 minutes to spare. As I had consumed a 600ml bottle of Cherry Coke on the way, I visited the men's room .... where I was greeted by TV's Brad Willis, aka Scott Michaelson, aka Holly Valance's former manager, aka solarium salesman, aka the prosectution. It was all very weird.
Hanging out the front of the courtroom were Scott and his peeps (including his Dan'ielle Gaha look-a-like girlfriend with a scary perma-tan), Holly and her peeps in close proximity, and some law students I had taken the elevator with.
I hung out with the law students, because Holly (popstar that she is) and I were the only people there not in a suit or legal robes. Oops.
At this point I was rather uncomfortable and bored, and I wasn't sure if I could take a seat in the court or not yet.
Scott Michaelson gave me a greasy.
I decided to go in before their case was called, brushing past Holly (I hid my face from her as I went in - possibly not very well) on the way. But when I got in there, all the seats were full. There are only 20, and they have to house court reporters and supporters and "general public". I recognised the Ten reporter with the speech impedement. She seems a lot more demure on TV.
So, then I had to walk out of the courtroom - which was in session, btw - and walk back out past Holly.

[Me - with the bad hair - and Holly in happier times]
At this point I don't know what to do. The law students - who were evicted the day previous when even Holly couldn't get a seat - can't fit either.
So I go to a book sale.
Thankfully, seeing as I was there, at the court, I feel I am able to give you a full run-down of what happened.
For a start, Holly's clothes are apparently the most interesting thing about the case. At least, it seems to be what the papers and TV are pre-occupied with. She wore a black jacket and brown pants - she loves brown now - and it was conservative for her, being that there was no cleavage or anything. She also had her silly fringe I wish would go away. Scott was wearing a dreadful blue/grey suit and pinkish shirt, which didn't go well with his deeply-tanned skin and lemon juiced hair.
When Holly took the stand she said how passionate she was about singing, and although Scott had paid for her acting lessons, she had paid for her singing ones, because she was passionate about it. Acting, she was a bit "buh" about, but singing, that was her passion.
She also got in trouble from the judge for speaking too quietly.
I think it would have been a very funny moment, but I was at the book sale.
Stay tuned for more details ...

Sir Bob
How expolent is it that my mate Sir Bob AND my idols Duran Duran will soon be on these very shores ... and that I will be in row D. LOVELY!
Now if only we could trick Robbie into recording a decent album, we'd be sorted.

Slowsy does it

Those jokesters at the Kylie fan site Limbo are of the opinion that it is too soon for her to be releasing a new album. I say to them, SHUT UP. I am sick of having had to wait an entire two years. I don't think she should be allowed holidays or gaps between albums. I think she should just release a single every three months.
I am a little worried that her newbie, "Slow", is said to be all "whispery" and "mid-tempo". No whispery - no! We want proper singing and enough with the "Can't Get You Out Of My Head"/"Confide I Me" almost-dance-almost-asleep numbers.
Limbo also claim the new album will be called "City Games" and feature collaborations with The Neptunes (yay!) and Dannii (writing only, sadly). But the record company has told them the info is all lies. Which they would whether it were true or not.

Look at moiiiii

I'll be honest. I love Kath and Kim but the season return last night wasn't very good, and I didn't need to see quite so many wobbly bums.
I still love them, and I'm sure it will all improve in weeks to come.
Because, you know, they rule.

Idol
The Australian Idol wild card show was the best one yet, and showed what a bunch of losers most of the other finalists are. Except, of course, for Cle and Millsy.
I am glad Levi and Bek got in, and I'm sure Dicko will secretly sign Courteney up anyway.

Last minute surprise Star Wars goss!
Look, I am a huge Star Wars fan, but this kind of stuff isn't usually my forte. Only because there seems to be little point reprinting stuff on other sites that people have heard at conventions and stuff. Also, teasing stupid celebrities seems that much more fun.
But, anyway, I somehow stumbled upon somebody working on the Ep III set and they told me ultra secret stuff that I must share ... damn me ...
Apparently one of the final days of filming (they wrapped in Sydney this week) included Hayden Christensen (That's Anakin Skywalker to you, sir) dressed in full Darth Vader garb and exiting a ship by ramp, arms crossed, with another character.
I mean, it says a lot, and it says nothing at all. It says that he's dressed as Darth Vader, which is what we were all hoping, so that's awesome.
Also, in an effort to keep details secret, a lot of the set, props and costumes have been destroyed. Bit drastic, isn't it?
