Defamer Australia Would Like To Issue A Retraction

To our incredibly switched on readers, and also, Dido fans.

As Editor of Defamer Australia, it is my duty to not only keep you informed of pointless rubbish from the world of entertainment and shove pop cultural nuggets down your virtual throats, but also to ensure I deliver nothing but the facts to you, our beloved audience.

After all, if you can’t trust Defamer Australia to give you hard hitting news and current affairs in a timely and meticulously researched manner, then who can you trust?

Therefore, I would like to apologise for yesterday’s “piece” regarding Dido’s latest album release. In my post, I made a grievous error and in doing so did untold damage to our relationship.

I wrote:

Dido has sold eighty billion albums around the world and helped clear the way for coma-pop artists to truly blossom in the Noughties (James Blunt sends his thanks, and a cat), but where has she been for the past couple of years?

The above statement is untrue, and thankfully several commenters stepped up to the plate and pointed out that Dido has not actually sold eighty billion albums around the world.

My sincere apologies.

I obviously meant to write she has sold eighty trillion albums.

Thank you for keeping me real, commenters. Without you, we’d have no chance of winning a Walkley.

    Hmmm. I’ve told you a hundred thousand times you shouldn’t exagerrate.

    Wow. Hyperbole is just an unpronounceable word to some people.

    At least you’re keeping up the cats, though.
