💘 Jane Fonda held me in her arms.
🤠 Tenderly embraced Shania Twain.
🪩 Made Dannii Minogue's day.
🥩 I am not steak. You can't just order me.
Distracted myself from flat hunting by finishing this off. I enjoyed it, but had elevated hopes for something much more #booksky

Love to see my hometown in the news!! 🫥
The West Sussex seaside town that was hotbed of fascism
Oswald Mosley and the Blackshirts' visit to Worthing in the 1930s sparked a riot, a historian says.

I watched with a bitter taste in my mouth for the last two years, but I don't think I'll be able to stomach watching Eurovision 2026 while countries are actively boycotting it. What an absolute mess, ruining a fun tradition to appease Israel. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ce...
Netherlands, Spain and Ireland boycott Eurovision after Israel allowed to compete
They were among a number of countries who had called for Israel to be excluded over the humanitarian toll of the war in Gaza.

Not KT Tunstall hanging out with one of the most notorious Zionists there is, Eve Barlow. I thought KT following her on Instagram was just a hangover from Eve's music journalist days, but evidently not. So disappointing.

#GirlbandsForever was an insightful look at that era of pop, especially from Mel from All Saints, Natasha from Atomic Kitten, and Su-Elise from Mis-Teeq. Don't go into it expecting a comprehensive look at every notable girlband, especially with the Girls Aloud omission, but a great watch.

Laura Innes, i.e. Dr. Kerry Weaver, in the Strictly audience for Alex Kingston?! My Dr. Elizabeth Corday loving heart can't take this.

Just finished reading this and felt physically ill during her account of election night. It seems so long ago after the mess Tr*mp has caused since. Would recommend reading to hear about the intricacies of a truncated presidential campaign. Biden and his team have a lot to answer for. #kamalaharris

#TheLifeOfAShowgirl thoughts:
💚 Highlights are The Fate of Ophelia, Cancelled, Elizabeth Taylor, and Ruin the Friendship
🧡 Having Max Martin at the helm set expectations that I don't think this meets
💚 The songs don't match the title or theme - where are the songs a showgirl can dance to?

grotesquely comic to have high ranking politicians coming out swinging in defence of *Graham Linehan*. guarantee if you showed most normal people a selection of Graham's tweets from the last decade (and told them it's all he's been doing all that time) they'd agree he should be punted into the sun

The fact I am not seeing Ashlee Simpson's Las Vegas residency is truly upsetting, so soothing myself with a setlist playlist.

John Boyne: This is all I have to say, and all I will ever say, on the outcry over being included in an LGBT+ book award longlist when I am a self-labelled TERF.

Also John Boyne: Here's a wallowing, self-congratulatory article I have written now that the Polari Prize has been called off.
