At her Hammersmith Apollo show last night, Nelly Furtado treated us to a performance of a track that is being released in March. It seems her favourite producer has called in a few favours from some old friends. This is going to be a MASSIVE hit.

Also, I know it was posted here before, but since it was only in the comments to another post, it appears some Poptimists may have missed this, and it's had me in hysterics all week... Kelly Clarkson gives her reaction to Baldney's head shaving.

"Scandal-free" and "unobjectionable" aren't linked in my mind. (Not that they're necessarily linked in yours.) I can name one person she's dated: David Hodges. Possibly a rough story, if the 'bloids had been interested: "the lyrics are about an ex-boyfriend of Clarkson's who left her in order to marry his own ex-girlfriend". (Of course, Wiki also states that Max Martin co-wrote the song, and no one's corrected this, so we can't assume that Wiki's always right.) Hodges is the first person (or second after God, if He counts as a person) she thanks in the liner notes. More generosity, perhaps.
