I Knew I Was Right About The Black Eyed Peas
08 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
When I watched the World Cup opening concert last year I couldn’t believe how bad the Black Eyed Peas were live.

07 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
I came across this rather grisly story while watching the pilot of Boardwalk Empire this morning, which (by the way) is blaaaady marvellous viewing. Robert Kubica, the Formula 1 Renault driver, was badly injured in a rally crash in Italy on Sunday. And by ‘badly injured’ I mean surgeons had to reattach veins, tendons and muscles in his arm to save it.

Gary Neville: Loyalty, Bum Fluff And Scousers
03 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
In an era of fickle Spaniards it seems appropriate to hail Gary Neville as a model professional. Jamie Carragher is a similar figure at Liverpool: a man you loathe unless you support the club he plays for. Either way you cannot help but admire his allegiance.

However, Sky might consider changing their pundits, Richard Keys and Andy Gray, after the pair, under the impression their mics were off-air, ridiculed a female linesman for being, well, a woman. The audio is after the jump.
