G2’s transformation into the Daily Heat has reached it’s apotheosis with four pages dedicated to lukewarm talent-vortex Alexa Chung. After that unbelievably dire show with Ben Elton we’re amazed she’s still getting work but G2 dutifully tell us all about her “plethora of television shows” (er, she’s only presenting one at the moment as far as we can see) “rock star boyfriend and jewellery collection (ethical, and skeleton themed.)”It’s the definition of a puff piece. What do we learn about the enigmatic and fascinating phenomenon that is the Chung? It’s shocking stuff:
- She likes dresses. Particularly those by Charles Anastase
- She had a pony called Pippi.
- She hangs around with Kelly Osbourne and some tart called Valentine Fillol-Cordier. They call themselves Team Evil. “You have to be obsessed with Nabokov to be in Team Evil” titters lady of letters Alexa.

Yet again, Andrew Collins' comment about Guardian writers having their cake and eating it applies. Honestly. I wish I was a fucking model, I might get to talk about books on Radio Four....
