Words About Things

Abbey Clancy takes a break from whatever her job is (looking hot? Going to the Gym?) to look hot dancing around at the gym in this new advert. The model and girlfriend of Peter Crouch lip syncs to Britney Spears’ Baby One More Time for T Mobile. The vocals are from T-Mobile’s Trafalgar Square sing along proving that they sure know how to milk that advert for all it’s worth.

See the clip below.

I yearn to go back to a time before I knew this advert existed. Somebody, somewhere decided that it would be a good idea to get Andi Peters, Melinda Messenger, Goldie, Johnny Vaughan, Lisa Snowden and some guy from Hollyoaks to mime along to a rap song about Chicken Wraps for Nandos.

This is apparently an ‘internal’ video for staff so maybe these celebrities thought that we would never know how desperate they are for money and exposure. Now that the video has found it’s way onto the internet their lack of shame will be noted for eternity. Watch the video below but remember what has been seen cannot be unseen…

Hmm, this post has had 240+ hits today with no referrer or from email addresses, would someone satisfy my curiosity and leave me a comment to let me know what this is all about?

Walking fashion disaster and reformed drug fiend Mickey Rourke has reportedly signed up to play a part in Iron Man 2. The star is due to play Whiplash who is based on the Crimson Dynamo from the original comic book. The Crimson Dynamo is an amour wearing Russian agent and not very subtle reference to Communism.

Rourke had originally turned down an offer of $250,000 to appear in the film as this would only just cover the cost of clothing his tiny dog. He has since been offered an amount more suited to his needs.

Emily Blunt was originally due to play the Black Widow AKA Natasha Romanoff in the film but had to leave the cast to to scheduling problems. Scarlett Johansson is now expected to play the part. This could be a big change for Johansson who normally seems to play a slightly self involved blonde tease.

Some have said that Olga Kurylenko would be better suited to the role of the Black Widow perhaps because she is from the Ukraine and bears more of a resemblance to the character.
