The Subways 'Wake Up' Glastonbury Festival

The Subways’ singer Billy Lunn claimed his band’s Pyramid Stage performance was the alarm call the festival needed.

Speaking straight after his lunchtime slot, he said: “We’ve been an alarm clock for everyone, it was quite early. Wake up! I think we managed that, everyone was singing, oh what fun.”

In 2005 their Pyramid Stage slot was cancelled because of lightning, so it was an emotional occasion for the three-piece to finally play on the Pyramid Stage.

“In 2005, I think it was an omen for the whole year, so today was a bit of a homecoming, an amazing moment.

“I love everything about this place, just the whole aesthetic of the festival,” he shouts, beer in each hand, clearly enjoying the aftermath of a career-highlight permrmance.

“We’ve gotta shoot off now, more shows to play. But I wish I could stay, you guys enjoy yourself.”

Stay tuned to Gigwise for all the gossip from the festival.

The study was conducted by HCD Research during June 16-17, to obtain
Americans' perceptions of the new McCain Girl music video, produced by
Barelypolitcal.com

While viewing the video, participants indicated their levels of
positive and negative feelings by moving their mouse from left to right on
a continuum. The responses were recorded in quarter-second intervals and
reported in the form of curves. Participants were also asked pre- and
post-viewing questions regarding their support for John McCain. To view
detailed results and negative and positive curves, go to:

Among the study findings:

-- Among political parties, the emotions most felt by Democrats while
watching the video were "irritated" (27%) and "entertained" (27%), compared
to Republicans, who reported "irritated" (30%) and "entertained" (23%) as
the emotions most felt, and independents who reported "entertained" (28%)
and "irritated" (27%) as the emotions most felt.

-- There was little change regarding which candidate respondents would
vote for after viewing the video.

-- When asked if the video would help, hurt or have no effect on
McCain's campaign, 52% of Democrats reported that it would have no effect,
compared to 62% of Republicans and 58% independents who reported it would
have no effect on his campaign.

-- Nearly half of Democrats (48%) reported that the video was produced
by "a separate organization unrelated to any campaign", compared to more
than half of Republicans (51%) and independents (67%).

Fired Apprentice Star Is Nudist Loving Domantrix

The best pal of sacked Apprentice star Jenny Celerier has revealed the red head is regular nudist who loves being in control in the bedroom.

Letitcia Doyle tells the News Of The World that Jenny - who was booted off the hit TV show this week - visit’s the name nudist resort in Spain each year, and loves showing off her body.

"She is a control freak and an exhibitionist - and is happy to parade around nude,” she says.

"It's just one of her little quirks. She's got a great figure and doesn't mind showing it off, and she reckons her bottom is her best bit.”

Doyle also reveals Jenny indulged the domineering ways she showed off on The Apprentice on an older businessman she had an 18 month affair with.

She says, "She used to dress up in high heels to spank and whip him.

"He was about 15 years older than her but she used to verbally humiliate him and make him crawl around the room.

"He worked in the sex industry and this is what he liked. And to be honest, Jenny enjoyed playing the role - after all she was the one in control."

But that isn’t the only innovation Jenny’s embraced - she even went home with a girl who reminded her of her Basic Instinct screen heroine.

Leticia explains, "We went to the gay Club X because we wanted to dance and not get pestered by guys. Jenny ended up chatting to a very pretty Welsh girl called Claire, who looked like Sharon Stone.

"Jenny really likes Sharon's movie Basic Instinct, because of the domineering role she plays.

"She brought the girl back then the next day she told me the girl had snorted cocaine off her thighs - but that she was going to stick to men in future.“
