Britney Spears has had her comeback performance panned, with critics seizing on her appearance. "Britney's Tum-Back" crowed yesterday's Daily Mirror, while the Mail's headline ran "The ballooning Britney".
Both ran the same unflattering photo. But watching the performance, I couldn't see any difference between Spears's current appearance and that of a few years back. If this is what "lardy" looks like, we should all be so lucky.
Armed and dangerous
A US company is marketing a silver ring with onyx stone that contains a high dose of pepper spray.
The spray conforms to "the industry's highest heat rating of 2m SHU (compared to a jalapeno pepper, which is 5,000 SHU)" and the ring is touted as "the perfect gift for someone you love". Will a mucuous-membrane-inflaming weapon replace roses as the ultimate romantic gift? Only time will tell.
