First, on Geri Halliwell:
Almost as if she knows how bored we all are of her now, Geri Halliwell is attmepting to fool people into buying her next single by dropping her surname. Even more amusingly, she's no longer going to use a dot on the i in Geri, but she's going to use a star instead. Which would look a little sad if a nine year old girl did it, never mind a 45 year old woman.
Then, to Beyonce:
Posted by Casper at October 18, 2004 01:34 PMIt's hard for Beyonce Knowles to overstate her influence on the world, but she has actually managed it: apparently Independent Women Part One apparently changed Japanese women's self-image overnight:
"This Japanese girl came to us and said, after Independent Women, that a lot of Japanese young ladies started being more proud to have their own jobs.
"Because before, they didn't, you know.
"That's culture we changed. In our own little way. A little bit."
What we like about this is you can actually spot the point where Beyonce realised she'd completely overstated her case and started to try and rein it back in.
