Yet another year in pop, Week 6

Hopefully Kat or anyone isn't doing this simultaneously, needed something to do whilst waiting to go to job centre. Might be a bit off because the official charts company hasn't updated yet so had to comb through the bbc chart instead.

[Poll #1346242]

Possibly I should have added this as a secondary poll question but when, if ever, did you last listen to the Chart Show, poptimists? I heard half of it last night, which is the most in about four years.

OMG OMG WHAT DRAMA?

Oh bvgger, I thought that was the one about his dad dying or whatever from ages ago still kicking around. Will have to put it in next week.

High Contrast remix of 'Hometown Glory' is very very good, possibly all judges had been raving around to that and mistook Adele for interesting popstar.

Arrested for smacking Rihanna up (allegedly)! dunno how reliable anything is until things settle down obv but he turned himself in and is being charged with "felony criminal threats". This seems (http://theybf.com/index.php/2009/02/08/grammy-drama-chris-brown-investigated-in-domestic-violence-felony-battery-charges/#more-7966) as good a round-up as any:

Ok, here’s the low down we got from an extremely credible PR source on the ground at the Grammys. Said source tells TheYBF.com that the “car accident” story is false and is being used to throw everyone off. Rihanna is DEFINITELY the victim of domestic violence and is now pressing charges against her boyfriend Chris Brown as we speak. Early this morning while leaving Clive Davis’ party, the two got into a physical altercation in their limo and he punched Rihanna in the face. We’re told that’s when he/the limo dropped her at Hancock Park in L.A., and she ran and called 911. He left the scene and hasn’t been found since. We’re told Chris has until midnight tonight to turn himself in to LAPD. Otherwise, he will be arrested as soon as he’s spotted by an LAPD officer. We’re told Rihanna is definitely in the hospital recovering as we speak.

I definitely want to check out the J-Hud, 'Tie My Hands' and 'Swagga Like Us' (with pregnant MIA) performances from the Grammys...
