blind item
Flotsam & Jetsam
12:58PM Jess McGuire | So. On Friday I told you I was going to go to the Myer Music Bowl, check out the amazing RocKwiz concert, and see if I could wrangle my way up to the VIP after party. I made it to that party, and it was the beginning of a ridiculously boozy evening. For the sake of my dignity – and what’s left of other peoples, I suppose – I’ll keep most of the night’s stories to myself.
I will tell you that due to some champagne fuelled shenanigans involving a busty hot singer, a tube of lip gloss, the wedging of said lip gloss between impressive cleavage, and excitable screams of “DO IT! DO IT WITH YOUR CANS!”, a strange but authoritative man came up to a group of us and sternly announced “Judith Durham’s manager would like to know what’s going on here”. Words that will haunt me for the rest of my days, especially when I’m acting like a dickhead.
Here’s what I CAN give you. An amazing blind item I heard from an incredibly reliable (in the “oh-we-toured-with-them-for-over-a-year” sense) source. And I will give it to you in the most obvious blind way possible. JUMP! More »

SOMEWHAT RUBBISH BLIND ITEM!
10:35AM Jess McGuire | Which recently very-much-in-the-news Australian warbler has been joining the very Facebook groups that proclaim him to be a dick of the highest order? The hate group in question lists a variety of reasons why folks should loathe the critically acclaimed performer, including “His face is always shiny” and “His take on subtle observational humor is to find the stupidest person he knows and make them rhyme”.
And after joining the posse on Facebook, the man himself – he’s using a pseudonym, but it’s definitely him – offered up yet another reason to detest him while writing on the wall:
“He is also a total c— who fingers other people’s dogs. Don’t forget that.”
DUDE! Your current level of success means you don’t need to bother responding to hate groups with eight people in it (and that figure includes you), even if your contribution is amusingly sweary. Sure, some spotty teens make not dig your sense of humour, but as far as the critics are concerned? You’re perfect! More »
