Holy shit. How are the Aussie media going to handle this? Is he going to be called on it? I haven't read anything quite so assy in a long time.

Oh man, I need to catch up on my Australian gossip! So much is happening.
What a disgusting thing for Newton's solicitor to say. One thing I hate about Aussie and NZ culture is the whole 'boys will be boys, she asked for it' mentality. Isn't Brooke Satchwell popular in Australia? I HOPE she gets a fair hearing in the court of public opinion. rant/ what does a man have to do to be held accountable? /rant
Things like this really piss me off.
On a happier note, any other Kiwis as pathetically excited as I am that NZ Idol has been axed, and we now get American Idol again? And only a week behind! I know, very sad.

NZ Idol has been cancelled? Oh HOORAY!
Not fussed about American Idol though, all the Idol/Popstar shows are painful to watch. Ever since the very first one that launched True Bliss upon us. Ugh ugh ugh.
Mind you, the thought of watching Paula Abdul fall to pieces really does appeal.

Yeah, God bless Paula and her chemical dependency. Everyone wins.

"Sure it was an assault occasioning actual bodily harm, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, but at least the Defendant hasn't killed any Iraqi children".
Surely, the Newtons could afford a better solicitor than Chris Murphy? He seems so sleazy.
Also, Lauren Newton: she's engaged to Matt welsh. Bitch!

Jessica Rowe had a baby girl called Allegra. So I guess they chose not to name her Edwina after Eddie McGuire, huh.

Allegra? Isn't that an allergy medication? Either that, or it was the name of a stupid puppet on Nickelodeon back in '97.
Regardless, what a stupid name.

Damn it! Now I have that "Allegria" song stuck in my head (former roommate was obsessed with Cirque de Soleil and played it all. the. time).
Edwina would have been cruel and unusual, though. I would never be able to hear her name without thinking of "Chicken Run".

I agree that it's a pretty name. Isn't Donatella Versace's niece named Allegra? I went to the Australian open tennis last night and watched Fernando Gonzalez make a meal of Lleyton Hewitt...and I was glad. Although kudos to Lleyton for keeping himself together, there's just something about the guy I do not like.
