Beyonce's Blower

Britain and America, two countries divided by a common language, or summat. For further evidence of the gulf between us look no further than the choices Samsung made for flogging their new phone in the US and UK. Those pesky yanks got Beyonce, boring but the epitome of cold-eyed professionalism. We get the musically much mightier Girls Aloud who, alas, still look a bit Primark by comparison. Our national pride swelled though when the Girls, who don’t have Beyonce’s dad negotiating mega-squillion deals for them, proved they didn’t really give a shit. While Beyonce posed with the phone, Samsung in the UK just slapped its logo on the Sexy! No, No, No promo shot. The US phones include a ditty multi-talented bum-grinder Beyonce composed at the age of 10. She simpers that this ‘gives fans that buy the phone a chance to know the real Beyonce’. Meanwhile the Girls have just slapped Sexy! No, No, No on their mobies. Quite right too. Who the flip knows what Cheryl Cole was singing at the age of 10? Come And Have A Go If You Think You’re Hard Enough probably.
