Put a sock in it

Joss Stone. What a cock

La Stone is getting vocal again. There's a new single on the horizon, (a nation yawns, turns over and goes back to sleep again), so it's time to put on the faux-London accent which hides the faux-American accent for the wind bag to spout off about how the British press are to blame for the backlash last spring and the subsequent failure of her new album. Nothing about how the blame could actually be laid at her bare feet?

I suppose it's a symptom of being self-obsessed and surrounded by 'yes' people that when things go wrong, it is always the fault of outside forces. But it goes deeper than that. There is an ignorance and lack of dignity on display here. When everything went belly-up for Kylie ten years ago with a flop record and seriously bad press she quietly retreated, regrouped and came back stronger than ever. Joss, just take note.
