If you get your kicks from parading around in pop stars' old underwear (and who doesn't?) you should head over to Ebay. Because, Britney Spears is auctioning her grundies to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
But before you get too excited, our careful research suggests that most of the items are already too expensive to bid for. That's careful research as in typing "Britney's pants" into the ebay search engine for thirty minutes before giving up and watching the Toxic video.
Have you noticed how all the best new bands are, by pop standards, practically pensioners? Alison Goldfrapp, Alex Kapranos and Ricky from Kaiser Chiefs are all in their 30s. And that means they all have musical skeletons in their closet... To which end, Culturedeluxe have dug up a recording of Alex Kapranos's band "The Blisters" from 1997. Funnily enough, it's better than almost everything on the new Franz Ferdinand album.
Pharrell Williams and Gwen Stefani's "Can I Have It Like That" is streaming at contactmusic.com. As usual, the Neptunes backing track is light years ahead of anything else out there but Pharell is an awful MC and Gwen just sounds bored.
Meanwhile, Pharrell told Radio One that N*E*R*D have split up, but almost instantly changed his mind. It seems the poor boy is getting muddled up. Maybe he should stop smoking those funny cigarettes Snoop lends him.Labels: Britney Spears, franz ferdinand, goldfrapp, gwen stefani, kaiser chiefs, links, Music, n.e.r.d.
