Camilla’s Turkey Slap

Sunday, July 2nd, 2006

You can watch the video of Ash turkey-slapping Camilla at 4:30am.

My take?  Sure, it’s inappropriate behaviour but the way it’s been reported hardly represents what took place.  It was all in fun and Camilla wasn’t too horrified to stay in the boys’ bed after the big event.  She even exclaimed “I’ve just been turkey slapped!” to the rest of the housemates in the room.  Lots of hoo-ha for no reason if you ask me.

Wowsers, go back to your bland suburban existence please.

TripleJ Hottest 100

Thursday, January 12th, 2006

Voting is open for the annual TripleJ Hottest 100, ready for the countdown on Australia Day. So you should vote.

You can vote for ten songs, mine are:

  • Butterfingers Fig Jam
  • Cat Empire The Car Song
  • Datarock Computer Camp Love
  • Devendra Banhart I Feel Like A Child
  • Herd I Was Only 19
  • Lady Sovereign Hoodie
  • LCD Soundsystem Daft Punk Is Playing At My House
  • Jack Johnson Good People
  • Louis XIV Finding Out True Love Is Blind
  • System Of A Down B.Y.O.B.

Hopefully I won’t realise I’ve made a mistake and missed some song I love to death. That would be tragic.

I’d also like to speculate on a winner; no doubt I will be horribly wrong. One possible winner is Kanye West, Gold Digger, I would say, cause that song was pretty popular. But it might not be popular enough amongst the Jays crowd. Comments on my musical taste and further speculation are welcome.
