Number One with 'Ruby'... please great God of pop give us an indie / rock chart-topper like we used to have before the cultural winter descended on us... Great record, Kaisers return with a jiggling off-beat indie production which I hope signals a battle... Top Ten at least.. please

This week's Goss ...

UK Top 40Sun 29 May 11
Half wooman half bike her new LP cover suggests and Lady GaGa has roared past all to storm to the top of the UK's Albums with her new 'Born This Way' set while Pitbull stays top of the UK's singles for a second week...

Adele gets a third week atop Billboard's Hot 100 Singles Chart in America while her album '21' is again topping Billboard's Top 200 long players...

Never mind our disatrous Eurovision Song Contest campaigns since 1997... the UK is now behind the USA and Rumania in the 'Pop Chart' stakes... the USA has eight of the UK's top ten and Rumanian Alexandra Stan's superb 'Mr Saxobeat' has moved up to 5... but at least the UK has struck back with one song in the Top Ten at 8, it's those "gangsters on the dancefloor" The Saturdays with 'Notorious' in at 8.

Two songs from the 80's are back with Jermaine Stewart & Tracy Chapman's 1986 and 1988 top tenners.

Two re-entries for Beyonce's 'Girls rule The World' at 22 and Chris Brown's 'Year 3k' at 34.

Dominatri X Factor
Posted Wednesday 1st June 2011 - Daily Mail

Simon Cowell has hired Tulissa to replace Geordie Cheryl Cole on X-Factor... he should hire La Roux's Elly Jackson to add the chance of a real riot producing fight... Elly's negative impression of women demeaning themselves in RnB has caused Tula some upset... I might even watch Money Factor if that Heavyweight Opinion Fight ever takes place...

Interestingly we haven't heard much of Elly Jackson since she voiced the views of the overwhelming majority, here's how Tula responded to the homely and highly aspirational notion of a fight between the two of them, who would win?
"Tulisa insisted that she would come out unscathed.
"Oh, definitely me. She wouldn't last five minutes with me. I've been sparring with Fazer and Dappy since the age of five," she said. "I don't have to tell you the amount of black eyes I've given. No doubt about that. She don't wanna go there." Jackson has previously claimed that Tinchy Stryder is "overrated" and The X Factor "f**ked up". Meanwhile, N-Dubz caused controversy after branding JLS "manufactured".
Here's the story from the Daily Mail
The sun has risen over Ibiza by 7am, but the clubbers are still chasing a good time in Pacha nightclub.
One group, fuelled by champagne and vodka shots, is more raucous than most, and includes a young woman with bleached hair wearing masses of gold jewellery, with a huge tattoo covering her back and shoulder.
She has put up her hair using knickers as a hairband – an act her pals find hysterically funny.
The partygoer is Tula Paulinea Contostavlos, known as Tulisa, who will replace Cheryl Cole on the X Factor judging panel.
Simon Cowell thinks she is ‘fantastic’, and has decreed that Tulisa, who has had three hit albums with hip-hop group N-Dubz, is what the show needs to give it more ‘edge’.
Her £500,000 deal has just been finalised and she will judge the first X Factor auditions in Birmingham today.
She is, though, a somewhat controversial choice for a prime-time family entertainment show.
Tulisa, 22, has not only admitted to frequent drug use in her past, but was also a member of a violent girl gang as a teenager.
Known as the ‘Greek Grenade’ because of her hell-raising tendencies, her PR people insist her bad behaviour is behind her, but only last year, she was asked to leave a hotel in Miami after trashing her room following a drunken night out.

Simon Spoonman returneth!
