Young Twinks Campaign: Get Involved!
4:08PM Jess McGuire | Young Twinks is the best idea we’ve ever had around these parts, even if we didn’t actually come up with it and instead stole it from our beloved friends ‘The Gays’. After reading Evie’s comment on today’s earlier post regarding how oddly drawn to the faces of The Virgin Three she feels, I began imagining the sea of photos featuring all three tweentastic faces which would begin appearing everywhere we looked once the triple-Hillsong-threat began releasing horribly overplayed CD single after horribly overplayed CD single.
And I have something to confess… I wanted to see them. Ima messed up, mamma! I knows it! I needs help! It’s like trying to encourage a poltergeist to appear in your house because you’re bored, but I don’t care!
As previously discussed around here, I have no Photoshop skills. But if you’d like to mock up CD covers for Young Twinks (and remember, this gives you the power to name the singles themselves! Disney World was right, imagination is wonderful!) please, please do. And then send the results, no matter how awful, to jess AT defamer.com.au with “Young Twinks” as the subject. It means when I’m going through my gay porn spam in my special alone time, I can take a peak at your magic too. Maybe we’ll assemble together a nice little gallery and really light a fire under the arse of Sony BMG!

Levi Kereama’s Family Deny Claims The Singer Committed Suicide
3:27PM Jess McGuire | When former Australian Idol star Levi Kereama fell to his death from a Brisbane hotel balcony over the weekend, newspaper reports indicated he had committed suicide, claiming Levi had been suffering from depression and finishing their stories (as we did) with contact details for support services like Lifeline and SANE Helpline.
But Levi’s family have now spoken out against claims the singer took his own life.
From TheMusic.com.au:
(Kereama’s) family has angrily denied media reports that he had taken his life, and had been depressed.
In a blog on the group’s website it said, “Amid false reports and exaggerated stories, on behalf of the Kereama family, we would like to set the record straight. Our beloved former Australian Idol contestant Levi Kereama did not leap to has his death, as reported. Investigations have revealed the tragic loss of Levi was an accident.

Anna Coren Is Leaving Today Tonight On Friday!
2:40PM Jess McGuire | Anna Coren has informed Ray Hadley that this Friday – yes, just two days away! – will be her last as the host of cutting edge current affairs program Today Tonight, which means Matthew White will begin his time breaking the big news stories on Monday. Exciting!
Today Tonight host Anna Coren has announced she will leave the long running Current Affairs program this Friday – citing itchy feet and a need to expand as her reasons to accept an offer at CNN Hong Kong.
And also too, the great Ronald Reagan.

Hmmm… Looks Like Tom Williams Would Be Rather Open To The Idea Of ‘Young Twinks’
1:41PM Jess McGuire | I realise Tom Williams was kicked out of Idol over a week and a half ago and referring to interviews he may have made at that time is taking our Two Day Old News Desk TM concept to ridiculous new heights, but bear with me.
After yesterday’s Defamer Australia request that Tom Williams, Dean Geyer, and Matt Corby unite to form the ultimate boyband of Idol cast-offs called Young Twinks, I read the following quote from Tom Williams in an article dated September 30th, and thought to myself “MY GOD! THERE’S A CHANCE YOUNG TWINKS COULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN!” More » Rex Hunt Charged With Beating Up A Cyclist!
12:28PM Jess McGuire | I liked Rex Hunt way better when he was paying his mistresses with a jar full of shiny coins, or whatever the hell he was up to two years ago. Now that he’s unleashing his furious anger upon poor cyclists? Not so much. Of course, ‘now’ is a strong word. It indicates that Rex beat up on a bike rider recently, like, during the past week or so… whereas in actual fact, he did it (or should I say, he ALLEGEDLY did it) back in July.
Flamboyant football broadcaster Rex Hunt has been charged with assault over allegations he bashed a cyclist in a road-rage attack in Melbourne.
Hunt is to face a preliminary hearing at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court this month over a July incident that left a cyclist with a broken finger.
More » Have A Listen: Kylie And Dannii Collaboration – Guess What They’ve Covered?
11:46AM Jess McGuire | I had no idea Kylie and Dannii were collaborating, but then again – my inner homosexual has been disappointingly quiet of late. Something I hope to remedy with some repeated listening of the Glitter soundtrack later this afternoon.
But until then, I wish to make those of you who were also living in ignorance aware of the existence of a Minogue sister’s duet, which was recorded for a new BBC2 comedy called Beautiful People. And as if the collaboration itself wasn’t a studio team made in camp heaven, guess what they’ve bloody recorded? More » 
New Images Suggest Britney’s Comeback As Slutty Lobby Waitress Nearly Complete
10:50AM Seth | Hot off the pages of Britney.com, we bring you these stills from the set of “Womanizer”—a new single that announces with a man-hating electrothump that the Queen of Pop is back, and for real this time, dammit. So productive has the New VMA-Festooned Britney become, she plays three separate vixens in this production. In the accompanying photo, Britney is a PVC-bustier-rocking hotel cocktail waitress delivering a snifter of Courvoisier with a snarl, presumably to whichever Timbaland protege produced this song. More stills after the jump! More »

Behold, Air Clooney
10:15AM Seth | Having just gotten over the grieving process of parting with Robert Downey Jr.’s world class facial hair and thinking we were ready to start seeing other celebrity moustaches, who should dribble along but George Clooney, rocking the dopest saltn’pepperpiller we’ve ever seen. Throw in some visible abage going down beneath his sweat-soaked T-shirt, and the Clooney Smile™, and we forgot Downey and the Bandit ever even existed. After the jump: Clooney gets air! More »
