Hero Face (without alien cat face)


What do you get when you mix blonde bombshells Charlotte Perrelli and Lady GaGa? You get this fabulous mash-up, as Lady Gaga sings 'Poker Face' over the backing track of Perrelli's 'Hero' from last year's Eurovision.

Number 1 is Number 1

Chart history has been made this evening, as 'Number 1' by Tinchy Stryder featuring N-Dubz makes number one in the singles chart.

Amazingly, in nearly 57 years of the UK singles chart, no song called Number 1 (or Number One) has ever become the self-fulfilling prophesy that the artists would have liked. The Tweenies and Goldfrapp came closest, both taking songs called 'Number 1' into the top ten, at #6 and #9 respectively. You won't be surprised to hear that these two and Mr Stryder's are three different songs.

Today's chart-topper is an all-London collaboration, as Tinchy Stryder hails from Bow in East London while N-Dubz are from St. John's Wood and Camden. Dappy from N-Dubz will be familiar to many TV viewers as 'that man with the stupid hat' on Never Mind The Buzzcocks. Their collaboration includes the line, "I don't understand how you're number one" and I'm sure many people will feel the same way.

Hopping off

Chig is hopping off with the Easter bunny for a week away from civilisation (but in a city) in a foreign land where he don't speaka da lingo. Guess where and he might send you a postcard. (It may be the only form of communication possible anyway, given that this place may not have t'internet and a mobile signal is unlikely).

192 seconds of My Time

Do you think we'll get away with 3 minutes and 12 seconds in Moscow? Twelve seconds too long is seriously pushing it.

Here's Jade Ewen's official video for 'My Time' (as they're calling it this week, at least), as revealed yesterday.
