It appears Brian Burke has asked about Roberto Luongo

To contact us Click HERE


Here is someone we haven't heard from in a while.

Brian Burke was on TVA in Quebec and had this to say about Roberto Luongo: "There has not been significant discussion (with the Canucks) on that player."

Interesting Burke made the comment in order to calm the speculation regarding the Canuck goaltending. The comment may have the opposite effect. Partly because Burke did not say he hasn't had any discussions with the Canucks just that he had no significant discussion. This leads one to believe that there have been some discussions then.

Leafs Nation is all over the map when it comes to Luongo. Some believe that Burke should give up just about any asset to acquire Luongo. Some would like to see Luongo in a Leafs jersey if the price is right. While others either hate Luongo or the contract and don't want to see him here.

I think Luongo has been a streak goalie throughout his career but overall has been very good. His play has declined somewhat and the question is how rapidly will his skills diminish in light of his long contract. Steve Yzerman has told the media that he is not looking to trade for a goalie which would seem to eliminate the Bolts as a possible location for Luongo. That said if the Canucks will take back some bad Leafs contract (like Mike Komisarek) then a deal should be made.

Still my first choice would be Tim Thomas if he became available and if the Bruins would trade him to a divisional rival.

If you mailed a human foot to the Conservative Party HQ, please come pick it up

A police officer removes a package containing a human foot from the Conservative Party headquarters in Ottawa on Tuesday.

Canada's governing Conservative Party headquarters received a "bloody, foul-smelling" package containing a human foot in the mail this morning. They probably didn't order it, but they also can't figure out who sent it.

The Ottawa Citizen reports that police initially thought the box might contain a human heart which kind of makes sense because Prime Minister Stephen Harper doesn't have one.

Anyway the heart that might have been intended for the PM turned out to be a human foot, meaning, as police sergeant Bruce Pirt noted earlier today, in a stunning a-ha moment, "There's a body without one." Those cops don't miss a thing.

So, if you just cut off your own foot and mailed it to Tory headquarters, the police are looking for you. And they know just what to look for. Yup, a person with one foot.

45 years of Maple Leafs frustration: 1982-83

To contact us Click HERE
In Gerry McNamara's full season in charge of the team one would have thought he would use the opportunity to rebuild not just the hockey team but the hockey operations. The Leafs at the time only had 3 full time scouts (Johnny Bower, Dick Duff and Floyd Smith) while most teams had at least 10. Coach Mike Nykoluk only had one assistant while other head coaches had several assistants. Doug Carpenter who had a very successful career as a junior coach at Cornwall was coaching the Leafs' AHL affiliate (St. Catherines Saints) but was not brought back in 1982. He would have been an excellent replacement for Nykoluk but McNamara decided to replace Carpenter with ex-teammate Claire Alexander. Even the Saints were a disaster. To save money McNamara didn't sign their top two scorers from the previous season, Bruce Boudreau and Mike Kaszycki, which further weakened the Leafs' depth.

The 1982-83 season featured the short career of Paul Higgins. Higgins played with McNamara's son at Henry Carr and was signed by the Toronto Marlies. He was continually getting into fights and in trouble with the law. He even got into a fight in a softball game during the offseason. The Marlies eventually traded him to Kitchener and drove him to his new team to make sure he got out of town. None of this mattered to McNamara who had the Leafs draft him in 1980 (10th round) and employ him as a goon.

The Leafs did not send scouts to the World Championships because Harold Ballard refused to sign Europeans. So the team that opened to door to Europeans by signing Borje Salming was now ignoring that continent. Meanwhile the rest of the NHL was going European (Jarri Kurri in Edmonton, Kent Nilsson in Calgary, Peter Stasny in Quebec).

Rick Vaive registered a second 50-goal season but that was really the only bright spot. Despite a terrible 28-40-12 record the Maple Leafs make the playoffs by finishing in 3rd place in the Norris Division. However the weak Leafs are quickly exposed as they are knocked off in 4 games of a best of 5 by the Minnesota North Stars. A total of 46 players dressed for the Leafs that season.


Drunk driver drives right through house ends up in backyard

A boozed-up driver tore through a 96-year-old woman’s Long Island house on Monday, spinning such a devastating path of destruction that the stove wound up in the back yard, police said. Sophia Anderson, 21, was behind the wheel of a red convertible Mercedes at about 4 a.m. when she failed to turn at a T-shaped intersection and slammed into the Huntington home of Helen Indiere.



The car tore through the kitchen and busted through the flowery wallpapered rear wall. It finally came to a stop when it hit a tree in the backyard garden. It struck with such force it shook neighbouring homes. “I never heard brakes,” said next-door neighbour Kimberly Steinberg, who called 911. The driver’s mother, Susan Anderson, was in shock when told her about the crash. “Oh, my God! This is not like her. I don’t know what’s going on,” the shaken-up mother said. “She doesn’t have a car in the city. I don’t know whose it is.”



Anderson, who grew up in the tony Connecticut town of Deep River, left for the city two years ago, her mother said. She moved from Queens to Harlem to her current digs in Bushwick, Brooklyn — all the while working and applying to schools. “She has her own life; she’s been away for a couple of years now. I don’t even know who her friends are,” her mother said. Anderson works as a waitress at the Union Square restaurant Kibo, and was informed on Sunday that it was closing, a friend and co-worker said.



She told colleagues she was headed to the Hamptons for the weekend, the friend said — though Huntington is nowhere near the Hamptons. “Nothing seemed wrong,” said the friend, who did not want to be identified. “She likes to have fun after the job, but nothing crazy,” the friend added. Indiere and her live-in caretaker were not injured, police said. Anderson and an unidentified man riding in the car suffered minor injuries. Anderson refused to take a Breathalyzer or blood test, police said, and was charged with driving while intoxicated.

Maple Leafs sign Leo Komarov but for the Leafs or Marlies?

To contact us Click HERE
Leo Komarov played 46 games last season for Moscow Dynamo of the Kontinental Hockey League.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed forward Leo Komarov to a one-year contract, the club announced Tuesday. The five-foot-11, 198-pound forward was born in Estonia but moved to Finland at a young age, was the Leafs’ seventh choice in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft. Komarov played in the KHL the last three season and had one year remaining on his KHL deal but his KHL contract appears to have had an out clause.

Every Leafs signing comes with a lot of fanfare but should we really be excited about this signing?

The book in Komarov is that he is a small, physical forward that racks up a lot of penalty minutes with a scoring touch. He likes to play dirty and can infuriate opponents. In other words a skilled pest.

Ron Wilson only had mild interest in players like Komarov but Randy Carlyle's philosophy is more consistent with Brian Burke's where you have skill forwards in the top 6 and grinders in the bottom 6. So Komarov has a chance to stick with the Leafs as a 4th liner but he may need to beat out some NHL regulars to make it. So I wouldn't be surprised to see him play much of the season with the Marlies.

"Cock" is Titillating—And in Just the Right Way

To contact us Click HERE
Some people are going to be drawn to the terrific new play that just opened at The Duke on 42nd Street because of its titillating title: Cock. Others may want to see it because of the refreshingly authentic way in which it deals with homosexuality. A few will even go because they know the play won an Olivier for its London run two seasons ago. And, as reviews start to appear for this production, some may want to see it for the marvelous performances of its four-member American cast.  But the real reason true theater lovers should see Cock is because it celebrates the essence of theater in its most elemental form. 
Playwright Mike Bartlett’s theater directions call for no set and no props.  The costumes are stripped-down versions of basic street clothes: jeans, shirt, a simple sweater, a slip of a dress. All that’s left are the actors, the text and James Macdonald’s assured direction which combine into a deeply gratifying evening of theater.
The story goes like this:  a young guy named John has been living with his slightly older male lover for several years when he meets a woman and unexpectedly falls in love with her. Both want John and each, M, as the man is called, and W, as the woman is, tries to force him to choose between them and to define who or what he is. 
It’s a romantic triangle with a contemporary twist but what really makes Cock enthralling is the way in which the story is told. The plot uncoils in a series of short intense scenes, each punctuated by the sound of a ringing bell, like the one that signals the end of a round of boxing or wrestling—or a cockfight.
In fact, the audience is arrayed around the actors in an arena-like seating space. In keeping with the show’s minimalism, the plywood benches have thin cushions and no backs, save for those in the last row. But even the people sitting there at the performance my theatergoing buddy Bill and I attended were leaning forward, drawn in by the unvarnished potency of the emotional combat on display.
It’s a real workout for the actors, who have nothing to hide behind and who, because they are performing in the round, must maintain intense focus.  It would be foolish to single one of them out and since there are only four of them, I don’t have to.
Ben Whishaw, a rising star in British theater, played John in London and Bill and I had lamented that he hadn’t come here with it, as he’d done with The Pride a few years ago (click here to read my review of that).  But I can’t imagine Whishaw being any better than Cory Michael Smith. 
The character of John could easily come off as a narcissistic pain-in-the-ass as he flips back and forth between his lovers but Smith creates empathy for John’s inner turmoil, his unwillingness to label himself as gay, straight or even bisexual and his quiet insistence that he just wants to love whomever he loves. 
Jason Butler Harner has a showier role as M and at moments his bluster feels too put-on. Until you realize that’s exactly the point: M is trying to insulate himself behind a façade of pretended strength and it’s wrenching when Harner lets it crumble. 
At the same time, Amanda Quaid makes it impossible not to agonize for W. In a finely calibrated performance, Quaid makes it clear that W is no stereotypical fag hag but a woman who deeply believes that she has met her soul mate and is equally convinced that she will never find another if she lets him go.
The smallest role, M’s supportive father, is played by the always-reliable Cotter Smith. This is the fourth impressive performance I’ve seen Smith give in just the past year and he’s never been better (click here to read a profile of him).
Now Cock isn’t perfect.  There’s some unnecessary repetition towards the end of its 90-minute running time. And the show isn’t for everyone.  I saw a couple of men across the arena from me who looked as though they wished they’d been able to talk their wives into seeing Rock of Ages
But Cock touched me. It made me think and it made me laugh (Bartlett leavens all the serious stuff with big heapings of humor).  And that's as stimulating an evening as any theater lover could want.


"The Columnist" Is All Tell, Too Little Show

To contact us Click HERE
Maybe we should blame Joseph Alsop.  When the KGB tried to blackmail the powerful Washington columnist with a threat to reveal his homosexuality, Alsop marched straight to the U.S. embassy and confessed that the Russians had photos of him having sex with a man in a Moscow hotel room. If Alsop hadn’t done that, then The Columnist, David Auburn’s new play, might have had a plot.
The compromising incident gets The Columnist off to a great start but most of the play, which is now running at Manhattan Theatre Club’s Samuel J. Friedman Theatre through July 1, is simply a series of This-Is-Your-Life-style vignettes from the rest of Alsop’s life: the night of JFK’s inauguration, the afternoon of JFK’s assassination, Alsop’s years-long fealty to his hawkish views on the Vietnam War.
All that might be fine for a PBS documentary but theater requires more, well, drama. Alsop, who died in 1989, is nowhere near as well-known as he once was and so theategoers need to be wooed into caring about him or what happened to him. Even the grey-heads that make up so much of Manhattan Theatre Club’s subscription audience, and who might be assumed to have remembered Alsop in his heyday, seemed subdued the night my husband K and I saw the show.
Auburn, who wrote the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Proof, has said that he wrote this play to explore the subject of power and how someone who had as much of it as Alsop once did could be so little known now (click here to read that interview).  He’s certainly written lots of lines in which characters talk about how powerful Alsop is but the problem is that The Columnist is all tell and too little show. The play might have worked better if Auburn had focused more on the personal than the political.
There’s plenty of back story that could have provided drama, including Alsop’s marriage of convenience to his wife Susan Mary and rivalries with his younger brother Stewart and the then-up-and-coming journalist David Halberstam, who opposed the war.  Auburn’s script touches on each of these relationships but centering the play around any one of them might have made for a far more compelling evening.
Director Daniel Sullivan tries to make the best of what he’s been given with a cinematic approach that includes John Lee Beatty’s terrifically fluid set whose transformations include the Moscow hotel room, a Georgetown drawing room and a Foggy Bottom park. There are also stylish video projections by Rocco Disanti in which typewritten words from Alsop's columns flit across a scrim. And it’s all smartly lit by Kenneth Posner.
Sullivan has also assembled a powerhouse cast, who singly and certainly together, know how to command an audience’s attention. It’s lead by John Lithgow, who captures the smug intellect and WASPy swagger that made Alsop such a dominant figure in mid-century America and then Lithgow laces his portrayal with just the right suggestions of the vulnerability that Alsop clearly worked so hard to mask (click here to read an essay the actor wrote about Alsop).
Lithgow is matched toe-to-toe by Boyd Gaines as Stewart and Margaret Colin as Susan Mary, both of whom love Joe intensely but are deeply frustrated by him. And there is equally nice work by Stephen Kunken as Halberstam, Grace Gummer as Alsop’s adored stepdaughter and Brian J. Smith as the duplicitous Russian lover.
They keep the show from being a dull night in the theater but not even the combined force of their considerable talent can make it anywhere near as powerful as was the man whose life The Columnist attempts to portray.


A Hard Look at Stage Diversity Dos and Don'ts

To contact us Click HERE
Another impossibly busy weekend is staring me in the face so I don’t have time to tell you about any of the recent shows I’ve seen. But I have managed to steal a few minutes to put together a different kind of post for today. It’s a little photo essay on two trends that really bothered me this past season.

In what I assume is an attempt to add some diversity to their shows, too many playwrights and directors are falling back on some old stereotypes: the big sassy black woman and the oversexed Asian woman. 

Nobody cares about diversity in the theater more than I do. It's important that we have people of color on stage and behind the scenes. So I try to applaud producers, directors and writers who include them. But this trend is diversity done wrong.
Now I’m going to be honest, it’s uncomfortable for me to talk about this because  (1) I don’t think it’s malicious; although I do think it’s creatively lazy. And (2) I don’t want to talk anybody out of work; I appreciate the eager-to-get-any-acting-job bind that these actors are in and the majority of them do as much as they can with the material they’re given. 
Still, I’ll bet they’d love to play some other kinds of parts. I know that the best of our showmakers are talented and imaginative enough to come up with some better ways to use them. And I’d really love to see what all of them can do once freed from these old clichés. 

In the meantime, here's where we are now:

 THE BIG SASSY BLACK WOMAN: Always there to belt out some big, brassy number
Clockwise from top left: Lysistrata Jones, Ghost, Newsies, Leap of Faith

THE OVERSEXED ASIAN WOMAN: Always ready to jump the bones of the nearest nerd

T.V. Carpio’s  first official performance as “Arachne” in SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark is one she will likely remember for the rest of her life.  She emerged from the stage door a star, with a giant bouquet of roses in hand, to meet a crush of news crews and photographers.  Everyone wanted to know what it felt like to land the role and if she had any trepidation in taking it on.  The bouquet was from co-star Reeve Carney.  It turns out T.V. goes way back with Reeve and his super-guitarist brother Zane Carney.

Onstage her character uses her powers of illusion to wreak global havoc, but off stage she is humble and demure. Earlier in the day, she told George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America,” “I have a great want to step into some big shoes and do the best I can do to service this piece.”

Leonardo DiCaprio tried to put on weight for J Edgar role so he wouldn't need a fat suit

To contact us Click HERE


Relaxing at the terrace bar on the patio of a Beverly Hills Hotel, Leonardo DiCaprio is his usual cheery, good-looking self.


This is partly because he no longer has to spend four hours every morning being made up to resemble the portly FBI director J Edgar Hoover whom he portrays in his latest movie, J. Edgar.


He wore a full bald cap with punched-in hair, false teeth, contact lenses, a “fat suit” and silicone prosthetics glued onto his forehead, cheeks, mouth, neck and hands.


“It was very claustrophobic and I wanted to put on extra weight so I didn’t have to wear a big suit,” says the 37-year-old. “I tried my best, but there weren’t enough cupcakes around to do it!”


One of Hollywood’s biggest superstars, since Titanic, DiCaprio has made a career out of risky choices, playing mainly unsympathetic characters in serious movies geared towards adult audiences. None of his recent films has been a blockbuster, and not all of them have even been successful.


As J. Edgar director Clint Eastwood notes, “Leonardo could make a lot of money making mechanical genre pictures, but he wants to be challenged.”


His latest challenge is probably the biggest he has yet undertaken – portraying the founder of the FBI from his 20s until his death in 1972 at the age of 77, in a remarkable performance which has earned him a Golden Globe nomination.


Hoover is the latest in a line of mostly tortured, unlikable characters DiCaprio has portrayed. These have included Howard Hughes in The Aviator, a Zimbabwean diamond smuggler in Blood Diamond, an unfaithful husband in Revolutionary Road, a psychotic detective in Shutter Island and a dream extractor in Inception.


DiCaprio is currently filming The Great Gatsby for director Baz Luhrmann and is preparing to portray Frank Sinatra in what would be his fourth collaboration with Martin Scorsese.


“I don’t do a film because I feel it’s time to do a comedy or a science-fiction film or another genre,” Leo says. “I do it because I’m motivated, it interests me and I feel like I could be of service to the character. And I like complicated characters.


“Just like the Great Gatsby, J. Edgar led to a million questions I wanted answered and it got me excited to research him.”


Apart from reading everything he could find about Hoover, his research included watching news film, visiting one of his old homes, touring the Justice Department in Washington and talking to one of the few people still alive who worked closely with him.


J. Edgar treads carefully around some of the more salacious rumours about Hoover’s personal life and portrays him as a crusader who modernised crime fighting with fingerprints and scientific analysis, while at the same time snooping into the private lives of suspected Communists and some of America’s most powerful figures.


DiCaprio also dismisses the long-standing stories about Hoover being a cross-dressing homosexual who flaunted his transvestitism.


“People still think J Edgar Hoover dressed up as a woman,” he says. “But that’s completely ridiculous. There’s no way in a million years he would have shown up at a party dressed in a frock with lipstick on, gallivanting around as some people think.


“That story came from a woman whose husband had been thrown in the slammer by the FBI and she wanted to get back at Hoover. He knew about those rumours and they haunted him through his entire career.”


Like Hoover, DiCaprio has managed to retain a mystique about his personal life, politely declining to talk about his off-screen activities. When asked by male interviewers about his penchant for dating beautiful models he replies with the stock answer, “Wouldn’t you if you could?”


And he’s rightly proud of his acting achievements. “I’d regret it,” he muses, “if I looked back and said, ‘You were a little lazy. You didn’t seize the gifts that were being offered to you and you didn’t take advantage of how incredibly lucky you were’. But I’m not doing that.”

Keith Lemon to host Jim'll Fix It-style show for ITV1

To contact us Click HERE


ITV1 is making its own modern version of Jim’ll Fix It – with comic Keith Lemon making dreams come true.


The Celebrity Juice star will host Lemonaid on Saturday nights and producers hope to emulate the late Sir Jimmy Savile’s BBC1 success.


The new primetime show will run for six episodes from the spring. And bosses hope it could become a regular fixture in the schedules.


Dan Baldwin, head of makers Talkback comedy, said today: “We want to reflect the great ‘wish fulfilment’ shows from yesteryear but add a
very special twist of Lemon.


"Keith Lemon is about to demolish people's problems and make their dreams come true - and we should all be immensely happy about this."


Zany Yorkshireman Lemon, 38, aka Leigh Francis, shot to fame with catchphrases such as “Bang Tidy” on Channel 4’s Bo’ Selecta! before hosting ITV2’s comedy panel show Celebrity Juice. On Lemonaid he will be helped each week by a different celebrity.


He said: “I’m very excited to be in t’living rooms of the lovely ITV1 viewers with me new telly show. Solving people’s problems and making dreams come true, making me look nice like Cheryl Cole, like when she went out to t’troops.


"She’s lovely in’t she? Not as fit as Kelly Brook though! If anyone has ever dreamed of meeting her, let me know – I can hook you up, I know her in real life.”


ITV entertainment commissioner Claire Zolkwer added: “We’re absolutely thrilled. He’s been entertaining the ITV2 audience on Celebrity Juice for six series and his unique brand of naughty but nice is going to bring some colour and fun to family Saturday evenings on ITV1.”


Jim’ll Fix It ran from 1975 to 1994 and BBC bosses, who brought it back for a Boxing Day special with Shane Richie, are considering commissioning a new series.

Katie Price mocks Alex Reid for ‘turning into a woman’ and jokes about his sexual preferences

To contact us Click HERE


Katie Price had a good laugh at Alex Reid’s expense today, mocking the father-to-be for turning ‘into a woman’ while they were married.


Speaking at a press event which saw the mum of three officially signing protégé Amy Willerton to her management label, Katie cracked jokes about Alex before suggesting that he made her wear a ‘strap on’ in the bedroom.


When we asked Amy whether she had her eye on any celebrity men, Katie cut in and made a comment that was clearly about estranged husband Alex. She said: “Yeah, she likes men that are men who turn into women.


“Because I’ve been there done that, she wants to copy and get a taste of both sides.”

Watch Katie cracking jokes in the video above...


Katie then took the joke a tad further and laughed: “I’m going to show her how to put that strap on on. Getting her mature, you know, getting on with it.”


Naturally, at this point Kate’s publicist started getting a bit flustered, telling the glamour model to pipe down, which simply makes her laugh.


She shouts: “I’m joking, just banter!”


But it doesn’t sound like Katie will be in the UK bickering with her exes for much longer, announcing that she’s planning on moving to the US soon.



When questioned about doing another reality show, Kate said: “It looks like I’m going to America. It’s all about America.”


And when asked if that was the secret she’d been hinting at on Twitter recently, she denied it was, saying only: “It’s really good news I’ve been waiting three years for. It’s all about Amy today.”

Amy is Jordan's newest signing and will be represented by Black Sheep Management


However, as we were on our way out of the press call, we heard Katie giggle: “We love a scandal… There’ll be one soon!”


It may sound a tad sad, but we actually can’t wait to find out what she’s banging on about.

Katie Price dismisses Leo Penna and Michael Parnes rumours, before revealing her three-date plan on Valentine’s Day - video interview

To contact us Click HERE


Katie Price is getting bored of talking about men, if her reaction to our question about Leandro Penna this afternoon was anything to go by.


We chatted to the glamour model at the official signing of Amy Willerton, who won Signed By Katie Price (a show about getting signed by Kate’s management company, as the name more than implies).


And when we asked Katie whether it was nice to see Leandro Penna earlier this month (the pair were snapped getting off in a taxi after a night out), she replied: “Leo? What’s Leo got to do with today?”


We pointed out that we could see his name tattooed on our flesh right in front of us, but Katie joked: “I thought it was Mike I was seeing – I cant keep up with what you lot say.”


Kate was referring to the rumours about married millionaire Michael Parnes, who she hung out with while holiday in Miami last week. However, she has since insisted that the pair are nothing more than mates and she is very much single.

Watch Katie chatting about Leo, Mike and Valentine's Day above...


So single, in fact, that Kate told us she is planning to have three dates on Valentine’s Day. When asked about her plans for romance on February 14th, she joked: “Yeah I’ve got lots of plans for Valentine’s, with lots of different men.


“I’m really lucky, I’ve got one at five o’clock, seven o clock and ten o’clock.


“I’ll probably be sore by 12 o’clock.”



She will if her new protégé Amy has got anything to do with it, who piped up: “I’m sleeping with her, we’ll probably have the night in together nice bottle of wine.”


To which Kate replied: “Nah you need to give me a break, I can’t keep up with you Amy.”


What a pair of troublemakers.

Katie Price announces she’s off to America and hints at scandal during model press call - video

To contact us Click HERE


There wasn’t much point trying to make a press conference involving Katie Price in some skimpy clothes, not about Katie Price, but she gave it a good shot.


After appearing on This Morning with 19 year old beauty Amy, who she picked as the winner of her Signed By Katie Price model talent show, the pair head off to a press conference in Parsons Green, London.


They posed it up big time while both wearing identical spandex, rubber… whatever catsuits with cut away sheer panels to expose a suitably substantial amount of cleavage and matching sky-high red platform shoes.



Amy certainly seems to have learnt plenty of Jordan’s moves and pouts – the latter at one point whispered in her ear, giving her tips… or perhaps telling her she shouldn’t have eaten garlic before… probably not.



But Katie, with a wry smirk on her face, was keen to emphasise “it’s all about Amy” to the gawping paparazzi and journos and even shimmed out of the shoot at one point.

Checking out their pictures, while we check out their butts


But of course, we all love to know what oddities the orange one is up to now and in between answering questions about Amy, she revealed she’s outta here.



“It looks like I’m going to America. It’s all about America,” she said when asked if there would be yet another series of her reality show.



When asked if that was the secret she’d been hinting at on Twitter recently, she denied it was, saying only: “It’s really good news I’ve been waiting three years for. It’s all about Amy today.”


However, our mole on the ground (she's blind as a bat, but has great hearing) heard her say this as she left the press call: “We love a scandal… There’ll be one soon!”



Is it Pete? Is it something to do with her old management Can Associates? Is she marrying her brother? Tell us now, pleeeeeease Katie.

Formula is great, dry time is great... this thing is just overall great! I really can't say much more about it other than you should get it if you haven't already!

Thanks for reading, until next time!
