TREND ANALYST CLAIMS “ROCKABILLY BIG FOR 2004″
So does this mean we have to give up our cowyboy boots, prairie skirts, and old Ryan Adams CDs, lest we be seen wearing the hottest trend of 2004 in 2004? Also “in”: suburbia, Germans, and being bi.

POP MUSIC RULES THE WORLD!
So like, did everyone watch the World Idol competition on Christmas day? Woah! UK Pop Idol, Will Young, is like the prettiest “Idol” ever! He’s come a long way in 2 years. We remember when he was just an in-the-closet gayboy with a dream! Now he’s got a fashion mullet! And he’s a class act. Yes, he still sings like a chipmunk, but a freakin’ cute one at that! If Will Young got any more attractive, we’d have to barf ourselves and go in for a sex-change operation.
We’re so moving to Norway. Not only home of our most favorite under-21 solo artist, the beautiful Sondre Lerche, but also home to loveable gap-toothed plumber/ “Idol”-winner, Kurt Nilsen! (We voted for him like 6 times!) If you saw the clips from Norwegian Idol, you would have seen that just about everyone in Norway is blond, fair skinned, and blue-eyed… and they all have amazing fashion haircuts and wear slick blazers and/or trendy army inspired clothing. We bet they wear Campers too. It’s like the indie version of Sweden, and how amazing would that be? Norway, officially our favorite country of 2003.
Oh, and the Polish judge? So busted for being Polish. Oh, and the Polish contestant, Alex, is a certified MIDGET!

SO YOU WANNA DATE A ROCK STAR?
He’s hot, he rocks, he’s a lousy boyfriend. Venus allows you to learn by reading, not by doing. (It might be too late for some of us.) Here’s a taste:
While I was carrying on a monogamous relationship, he was carrying on with any other little girl who returned his smile. I believed the stories of weekends away visiting friends and nights out with the guys. I did not know that many times he was not really out of town; he was shacked up in an apartment across town with one of many faceless females. We dated for two years (it’s been a year since the break up), and the final count of girls he slept with while he was my “boyfriend” ends up being around 17. For a girl who has always practiced monogamy and been very careful, this information completely disgusted me and was extremely difficult to get over.
Apparently The Wedgie has no problem with her rock ‘em sock ‘em man-friend, Jack White. She jetted off to Detroit (can you even use the words “jetted” and “Detroit” in the same sentence?) right after her Letterman taping. She actually looked sorta fab in her red satin number. Jack’s black pinstripe prison suit + The Wedgie’s lipstick red sausage casing = one stylish Christmas. Link from Whatevs.
