Madonna Isn’t Happy About New Track Being Leaked

THE music industry isn’t the same as it once was. The main difference is that the industry itself isn’t in control of what is released, how you obtain it and where you listen to it. Basically, it’s watching the rug being pulled from under its own feet and some of the old guard just don’t know what to do.

The most recent example of this is Madonna and her leaked ‘Give Me All Your Love’ demo hitting the internet this week. And she really isn’t happy about it. And of course, you can hear it below to anger her further.

Madonna’s manager Guy Oseary has said the singer was “very upset” that a demo had leaked, spoiling the ‘surprise’ of new material from her upcoming album.

“Madonna told me this morning ‘my true fans wouldn’t do this’… whoever is responsible for this leak, we ask that you please stop!” Oseary wrote via Twitter. “I’m very happy with the positive reaction to the demo, but we are very upset with whoever leaked the song!!!!!!!!” he added.

The Adventures Of Tintin Censorship: Belgian Detective Upsets British And Lebanese Racism Police

MORE often than not these days the name Tintin is followed by “racist”. Sure enough, in Tintin in the Congo, written in 1930 by the Belgian George Remi, Africans are depicted as submissive and simple minded. They often come across as not half as clever as Tintin’s companion, the dog Snowy. To contemporary sensibilities the cartoon character’s derring-dos in Africa are expressions of deep bigotry and typecasting.

Now, with the release of Steven Spielberg’s 3D-animated film The Adventures of Tintin: The Secrets of the Unicorn, the cartoon racism debate has intensified again, with renewed calls for censorship and bans. British stores recently moved Tintin in the Congo from children’s shelves to adult graphic novel sections, and the publisher Egmont has wrapped the book in plastic and added a warning sign about its “offensive” content.

Over in Lebanon, there have been some strong reactions to Tintin, too. But here the cartoon has been deemed as unpalatable for very different reasons. In one cinema, Spielberg’s name was blocked out from film posters. Apparently, Lebanese movie-goers need to be shielded from knowing that a Jewish man has been involved in the film they’re about to see.

Michael Jackson’s Reckless Death Is Pinned On Conrad Murray: Who’s Really Bad?

SO, Michael Jackson’s personal ‘feelgood doctor’, Conrad Murray, has been convicted of involuntary manslaughter. This apparently provides closure for those who have tried to make sense of the pop icon’s death in June 2009. Because for many, the idea that Jackson died a tragic, accidental death as a troubled star who was under a lot of pressure, that he was simply an afflicted man who finally dug too deep into the medicine cabinet, apparently just won’t do.

The six-week trial didn’t only lay bare intimate details of MJ’s life and death, beginning with the distribution of gruesome images of his body in a hospital gurney and a photo of his naked body at the autopsy – it also revealed that, today, the idea that tragedy sometimes strikes, for little explicable reason, has limited traction.

Image: Michael Jackson’s sister La Toya Jackson leaves the Criminal Justice Center, Monday, Nov. 7, 2011, in Los Angeles, after it was announced that Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson’s physician when the pop star died in 2009, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.

Kim Kardashian Butts Into OK!: National Enquirer Said She Wore Kris’ Engagement Ring In 2007

KIM Kardashian and her Konglomerate have built a fortune on a a big butt and a self-made sex tape that accidentally “leaked” onto the internet like a faulty Justin Bieber pull up. Kim Kardashian has no obvious talent. Her porn was mundane. But her mummy saw a chance to get rich and famous. We met lots of other Kardashians – daughters and more daughters emerged before us.

But Kim was the star. And it was decided that she needed to marry. So, she married a 90-ft high mouth-breather named Kris. He had a name that started with ‘K’ and hardly spoke. With any luck only his chest would ever appear on camera. Viewers would not be able to see his eyes rolling and glancing sideways as Kim and Ko. talked about their journeys.  But the wedding enver worked out and Kim and Kroom are getting a divorce. As lusk has it, the split chimes with the release of a Kardashian book is released.

Now, Kim is on the cover of OK! magazine, She wants to talk to you about her marriage split. The National Enquirer says it has proof the wedding was a “sham”. It claims to have “found photos from 2007 of Kim flashing the extravagant 20.5-carat sparkler designed by jeweler Lorraine Schwartz that Kris supposedly ‘gave’ her!”

Kill Keith: SAW Meet Richard & Judy

KILL Keith is Keith Chegwin’s new film. It’s described as “SAW Meets Richard & Judy”. We  can only hope:

The year is 2010 and hidden away in a damp dark and blood stain cellar is a stranger, a man, a figure in the dark, someone we’d rather not know. He sits through the small hours torturing himself watching Swap Shop on fast forward over and over again. Cheggers Plays Pop posters decorate the cellar walls. The stranger moves slowly around his memorabilia filled shrine; terrifying equipment of torture fill the cellar together with several slabs of dead meat hanging from meat hooks. In the corner a man is bound and gagged in a cage while being subjected to archive TV clips of Keith Chegwin. The stranger is on an evil crusade. What is this unhealthy obsession with Keith Chegwin? Is the stranger plotting to kill our much loved Keith? Innocent victims from around the country slowly start to disappear. The damp cellar accrues more bodies. The news headlines build of reports of a serial killer. Cheggers continues his daily TV show while the nation lives in fear of evil roaming the country. Body parts begin to surface hundreds of miles from where they disappeared. How safe is Keith? How long before the stranger fulfills his obsessive desires.

Jimmy Carr’s M5 Death Joke Makes Him Look Like A Coward And A Bullying Cock: He Can’t Win

CAN Jimmy Carr make a joke from the deaths of seven people in a crash on the M5 near Taunton? Some may have been burnt to death.

The TV funnyman tweets:

”An (sic) couple married for 66 yrs died within 3 days of each other. That’s nothing. My grandparents died on exactly the same day…. car crash.”

Carr then says it was not his intention to be offensive and make fun of the deaths of Anthony and Pam Adams, who were on their way home after visiting their family in Taunton:

”Very bad timing by me. The joke was obviously not about recent tragic events. Apologies if any offence caused.”

David Hasselhoff And Katy Perry Star In The Photo Of The Year: MTV Awards Face Off (Literally)

WHEN David Hasselhoff eyeballed Jesus stumpet Katy Perry at the MTV Europe Music Awards, cameras clicked. Hasselhoff, a man famed for slow-mo running, taking orders from a snarky car that lived in a mute truck and helping to decide what the Queen must spend three minutes of her life watching, looked like he was having his face tied on by a dwarf sat on a goat with wayward horns. Unless that is The Hoff’s new expression fixe, in which case we commend his efforts in what has become a tired area of human evolution…

Justin Bieber Wears No Pull Ups In A Display Of Moist Love For Selena Gomez: Photos

ALL eyes on Selena Gomez, china doll-headed sex interest in Justin Bieber’s life, at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Belfast. Well, before Mariah Yeater claimed she parted Bieber’s fringe (now an official euphemism) and popped out his love child, Gomez was the only woman linked to the perky star.

She was hosting the event at which Bieber was performing. Would the lovebirds put on a show of unity for the cameras? Would Justin dry hump and grope Selena without his no-leak pull ups and prove the 30-seconds allegations wrong? Would Selena come dressed a crocheted toilet roll cover?

And now, Bieber has finally come out and spoken about the claim in explicit terms. He said, to Matt Lauer on Today:

“Never met the woman. I’d just like to say, basically, that none of those allegations are true.”

“I know that I’m going to be a target, but I’m never going to be a victim.”
