In the good old days, a pop star from the 60s 0r 70s would have a few hits and have their time and be gone. It was the proper way of things.
OK, every now and then a relic from the sixties would pop up on Pebble Mill at One or one of those horrible Dennis Norden ‘Where Are They Now’ type shows. Usually sporting a ridiculous mullet to look ’80s’ and singing a bastardised synth ‘re-recorded’ version of one of their 60s hits. Other than that, they would vanish, and usually for good.
However, early 2000s pop singer, Sophie Ellis Bextor appears now to be everywhere. But, for what reason, I am struggling to grasp.
First of all, her ‘prime’ and her hits were at least 20 years ago. Secondly, she was always pretty crap anyway. Substandard disco, beloved by chavs and pooves.
But, she has recently appeared a lot on our television screens. This may be because of the cheapo BBC. For the New Year’s Eve celebrations on TV, did the BBC get a bit of modern and currently big and trendy pop fluff, like Taylor Swift or Dua Lipa? Someone to ogle while festively drunk? No, the BBC went to the bargain basement and spent the minimum on Bextor and got her to headline their show. She was (briefly) big two decades ago, for fuck’s sake. She should have been headlining in a St Alban’s pub on New Year’s Eve, not on national fucking television. Bloody hell, it’s like Twinkle (minor 60s pop singer) topping the bill New Year’s Eve 1985. Absolutely small time and laughable. Who will be headlining on the BBC New Year’s Eve 2025 Right Said Fred? Jive Bunny? Chesney Hawkes?
The BBC were once the big cheese in TV broadcasting. Now – apart from their woke lunacy – they are a joke. Doing things on the cheap, aiming low and paying end of the pier acts for what are supposed to be star studded events.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor might be everywhere, but she’s not, alas, in the one place I’d wish for her to be: in the VIP suite of my love dungeon with all its plush accoutrements…deluxe straw on the floor, a He-Man Masters of the Universe single duvet and pillowcase and a small radiator to keep the temperature at a toasty 6°C.
Nothing but the best for my beloved Sophie.
I’d ride her faster than a gatling gun.

You’d be better off taping her to the roof .
Marvellous reception from that utter moon-dish of a face.

Didn’t the BBC sack her mother from Blue Peter before she was born, for being pregnant outside of wedlock?
If that’s the case, she’s probably taking their money out of revenge.

They should have had fucking Lulu. I think Lulu is fucking great. Long live Lulu, Boom Bang-a-Bang, she’s a fucking tiger, that Lulu! Grrr! Fuck the BBC.
Good morning, all.

As my interest in pop music largely fizzled out in about 1978 I have no knowledge of Miss Ellis Bextor. However as any nomination of a musical theme seems to result in numerous cunters posting links to YouTube videos I’ll get mine in early.
This is an Australian cover band whose lead singer, Kat Jade, has a terrific voice and is gorgeous with it. I’m deeply in lust with her.

I believe she`s a tuppence licker, Geordie.
PS, that song* was voted the shittest song ever released in a recent “rock `n` roll” poll.

Nothing beats the sparkly costumery and sheer razzamatazz of The Black & White Minstrel Show (BBC, 1958-1978) …

Following the ousting of Dame Kweer Stalin following revelations about three young Ukranian ‘male models’, Prime Minister Lammy holds his first Cabinet meeting.

Sophie Ellis Bexter has not once appeared on my TV screen.
Probably because I don’t watch stuff on the BBC. Apart from the occasional Panorama or movie.
If you choose to tune in to the BBC you deserve everything you get.
Watching the BBC on New Year’s Eve… How fucking sad is that?

I’m surprised the beeb hadn’t chosen their now usual jet black Umbongo chanting fat cunt.

I’m in favour of her.

McCartney’s still loitering around after 6 decades and smells of piss.

Does she still look like that, Sixdog. If so I’ll be waiting in anticipation, with my trousers neatly folded, with cock in hand.

She’s still worth emptying a load into even at 46.

Especially as she has a few natural wrinkles and doesn’t appear to have had any work done, SV.
I think she’s fantastic.
Well, looking at least.
Boring as fuck singer, but I reckon I could extract a few loud high notes from her.

Sophie’s kitchen disco 😂
She looks like an alien, she could have been the star of V, definitely from behind, wouldn’t want that lizard tongue down my throat.

I imagine,as I try to avoid television as much as possible,that the never ending cunts at Al Beebazeera simply can’t make their minds up between inner city druggie rap shit by criminal dark key types and mumsy has been easy listening shite.
Anyway,fuck the lot of them.
I pray “dodgy” streaming services sink them without trace.
The soppy cunts.

Ive nowt against her,
Doesnt figure much on my radar and doesn’t impact my life,
But shes made a good career from one song!
Like that cunt Lenny Kravitz.
One record, still dining out on it 30 years after the cunt.
And that Billy Ray Cyprus.
One record.
Still line dancing on the red carpet.

And he is porking Liz Hurley.
Like Jesus meets Sons of Anarchy meets Randy Savage.
