Like, Peaches Geldof Likes Stuff. Like, A Lot. Like… Like.

4:48PM Jess McGuire | Hey kids! Remember how painful I found Peaches Geldof when I saw the horrendous ‘Fearne and… Peaches Geldof’ television special during my month in London? Someone has made a short video which may help explain to you why I want to slap her (emotionally – I don’t condone actual violence). More »

Stan Walker Is Your Australian Idol!

3:09PM Jess McGuire | I like to think you and I have a fairly honest relationship, so I am not going to bother pretending that I’ve been watching Australian Idol religiously this year, or that I was particularly invested in the outcome of last night’s finale. But as someone who claims to eke out a living as a commentator on Australian pop culture, it would be wrong of me to ignore the fact that we now have a new Australian Idol, and that person is Stan Walker.

Dan Sultan Is Definitely Some Kind Of Elvis

2:03PM Jess McGuire | It was an easy mistake for the Herald Sun to make, I suppose. In captioning a picture of the handsome and extremely talented Dan Sultan, they accidentally referred to him as the “white Elvis”. Given that Dan is (to put it in the Herald Sun’s own words) “the product of an Aboriginal mother and Irish father”, I am pretty sure they meant “black Elvis” – something Clare Bowditch called him a few years back. Traditionally, I believe Elvis Presley is considered the “white Elvis”. More »

12:02PM Jess McGuire | Given that I am an incredibly busy woman with many terribly exciting things to do during my working week, I simply don’t have time to read articles and interviews that involve people I am not overly familiar with. This is why I usually flick straight to the Confidential part of the paper so I can learn about what Bingle ‘n’ Pup got up to during the week without fear of challenging my brain or increasing my knowledge of important world affairs. That said, on very rare occasions I’ll somehow accidentally stumble across a story involving people I’ve never even heard of and I’ll suddenly find myself riveted. The story of the Rose, Shamrock and Thistle is one of these magical tales. More »
