Don't Stop The Pop! Dumb pop news for a dumb Monday
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver June 28th, 2004
Dunno about you, but my Monday has been pretty boring thus far. Thankfully, I stumbled across these pop-tastic nuggets! Chew on these...

COSTA LEFT IN THE COLD!
Antony Too-Cool-For-The-'H' Costa is my favourite member of Blue now that twat Lee Ryan's stopped blabbering on about whales and stuff, but it appears that his 'bandmates' don't think too highly of him. It was his birthday last week, but not even one of his Blue buddies came. Aww, poor diddums. No doubt he consoled himself in some Page 3 gal's chest.

Now, that's pretty funny, but this is plain weird...

PULP? WHAT A LOAD OF SHAT!
William Shatner's new album - produced by Ben Folds no less - will feature the ex-captain's take on Pulp's 'Common People'. Apparently it'll be a duet too, with Joe Jackson helping out. They met in a supermarket, you know...

...From weirdness to sheer stupidity...

SCOTT-LEE STEPS TO THE SOUND OF A NEW BOSS
Former Steps lady Lisa Scott-Lee has signed a new deal with indie label Boss. She'll have a new single out later this summer called 'Sunshine'... wait, do you really care about this? Thought not...

Finally, some really good news...

BRITNEY'S ENGAGED... AND BACK WITH JUSTIN (SORTA)
Yeah, so she's only just got divorced, so what!? The quicker that Ms Spears is hitched the better, as then she'll stop assaulting us with her dire new material ('Toxic' aside, obviously) for five minutes. Anyway, Britney go engaged to her dancer boyfriend Kevin Federline last week, according to BMG. Oh, and rumours are also doing the rounds suggesting that Britney has buried the hatchet with (rather than in) ex-fella Justin Trouser... sorry... Timberlake. He's meant to be writing a song with her, and the powers-that-be see such a collaboration as the perfect way to improve relations with her US fans, most of whom are pretty pissed at the star's recent tour cancellation.

Man, I'm all popped out. Back to the daily grind I suppose.
