I'M IN THE MOOD FOR SHALLOW ADVICE
 
You wouldn't go to your local greengrocer's and ask for protection from online identity theft, would you? You wouldn't pop to the sexual health clinic and expect to walk out with a bunch of grapes, would you? (Hmm, come to think of it…) So why would you ask Colleen Nolan for advice on your lesbianity? Or, indeed, on anything? This is a woman whose career peaked 30 years ago with an excruciatingly annoying disco track - and whose recent cultural contributions include countless, unforgivable hours of twaddle on ITV's Loose Women - "real men don't cry" - and managing to make Dancing On Ice even more crap. A feat which most would have said was impossible.

Well, one young woman clearly seems to think Colleen has all the answers, and wrote in to her for some girly advice. Colleen, what should I do about my lesbian lover who keeps messing me about, she asked. Well, said sagely Colleen: "The fact, is you've already given her enough chances and unfortunately this woman has used you. I think if you take her back, she'll just keep doing it." It's not bad advice really. It's rather dull, but props to the Mirror for including lesbos and that. If you want my advice though, you probably need advice if you take advice from Colleen Nolan...

BROTHERLY BIGOTRY

 

Ooh, well fancy this: turns out that the leader of the opposition in Australia has a lesbian sister. And this is significant because..? Well, said leader, Tony Abbott, is not exactly what you'd call homo-friendly, as evidenced by his opposition to gay marriage equality. So he's been left in the rather shameful position of arguing that his own sister shouldn't enjoy the same rights that he does. And it seems sis has been trying to change his mind in "spirited discussions". Wonder if mum and dad have had to step in yet? Be interesting to see how this one plays out…

ARE YOU IN THERE LUV?

Bisexual pop princess Jessie J released her video for Laserlight on Monday, earning her mixed feedback. Fans tweeted the star to say, ever so politely, that her new video was a bit, well… fake. One fan tweeted: ""Not going to lie @jessiejofficial I don't really like the laserlight vid, I can speak for a lot of heartbeats we don't really think its 'you'".

"And what's 'me'?", asked Jessie, "Different is good, change is normal, growth is important."

When fans suggested she was being a bit defensive, Jessie responded with: "I was asking genuinely. Why is everything made into a HUGE thing. I respect everyones opinion ut I will always do what I love. Doesn't mean everyone is going to like it. Life isn't like that. But I am me. Always me. :)" (Groan at the grammar, but smile at the sentiment.)

And that's why we love you, Jessie, you big mouthed, big voiced big lipstick fashion-fiend. What do you make of the video though, folks?
