  • Declan Donnelly’s trouser bulge was very very distracting on last night’s I’m A Celeb

    Viewers couldn’t concentrate on last night’s I’m A Celebrity semi-final because of Declan Donnelly’s huge trouser bulge.

    The unfortunate (or fortunate, depending on your viewpoint) wardrobe malfunction happened midway through the show when Declan, standing with Holly Willougby reviewed a huge bulge in the trouser area, with some even suggesting the presenter had a “male camel toe”.

    The mishap happened towards the end of the show when the presenting duo was letting viewers know how to vote for their favourite celebrity to win the final, but many viewers at home were too distracted by the huge outline in Dec’s trousers, with at least one viewer admitting that they “couldn’t look away”

    The biggest reveal happened when Dec crossed his hands over his private area and seemingly pushed down on his trousers causing the material to enhance the outline the lump in his underwear.

    Other asked what the male term for camel toe, to which some suggested “moose knuckle”.

     

     

     

     

     

     

  • Celeb deletes his 4 million strong Facebook account for “demonising sexuality”

    Celeb deletes his 4 million strong Facebook account for “demonising sexuality”

    Chris “Leave her Alone” Crocker has deleted his Facebook social media profile following on from the news that the social media platform has introduced a raft of puritanical bans on sexual talk.

    Chris Crocker has deleted his Facebook page, which had 4 million people following it, after the news that Facebook had enacted a brand new “sexual solicitation” policy.

    The policy could potentially ban gay, bisexual and transgender users from discussing whether they are top or bottoms on the site as it seeks to ban “sexual hints such as (the) mention of sexual roles, positions or fetish scenarios”.

    “Demonizes sexuality”

    Chris, who is an internet star, turned adult performer took to Twitter to say that despite the fact he had 4 million followers on Facebook, he would no longer “contribute content to a site that demonizes sexuality”.

    Facebook’s community standards say, “Do not post content that engages in implicit sexual solicitation, which can be identified by… using sexual hints such as mentioning sexual roles, sex positions, fetish scenarios, sexual preference/sexual partner preference, state of arousal, act of sexual intercourse or activity (sexual penetration or self-pleasuring), commonly sexualized areas of the body such as the breasts, groin, or buttocks, state of hygiene of genitalia or buttocks.”

    The policy change comes just a day after blogging site Tumblr said it was going to remove all adult content from its site.

    In a separate Twitter post, Chris wrote:

    The internet is becoming Anti-Sex.

    A long list of bans

    Facebook isn’t the first platform to take a stand on sexualised content. Earlier in December,

    Tumblr announced it was purging itself of sexualised content.

    Sex workers have seen files deleted or removed from their Google Drives

    Starbucks said it would be enacted a censorship tool for porn on its in-store WIFI

    Craigslist had its personals shutdown

    Reddit has banned all sex-work groups and

    Escorting sites such as Rentboys.com has been shuttered.

  • Concert Review: Ms Lauryn Hill: Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 20th Anniversary Tour

    Concert Review: Ms Lauryn Hill: Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 20th Anniversary Tour

    Lauryn Hill may have a reputation for being a difficult, and sometimes wayward artist but seeing her perform, even if it meant travelling to another country to do so, could not have been more comfortable or more enjoyable.

    Eurostar recently launched it’s direct service from London to Amsterdam.

    Their services has become one of the most convenient and pleasant ways to travel for a lot of my European jaunts, and the process of checking in, clearing security, scanning tickets, and all the other rigmarole associated with travelling abroad seems much smoother than most airports I have experienced.

    This journey was more than just a live gig, it was the 20th anniversary of Ms Lauryn Hill’s iconic album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The album was written in exasperation and hope after the dissolution of the Fugees and documents the relationship between Ms Hill and her bandmate Wyclef Jean. Soon after making this defining album she left the music industry to raise her children.

    Her returns to the live arena have often been marred by stories of a difficult personality and a reputation for lateness, but tonight nothing seems to be further from the truth. Many fans have commented on such tardiness as being disrespectful to those who buy tickets to watch her shows, but I would say that it is more disrespectful to loyal supporters if they turn up to find their favourite artist lip-synching through the performance. Not that Ms Hill would ever need to resort to such cheap tricks and by contrast, her vocal delivery is both impressive and sublime.

    The arena was full with a crowd made up of all ages, parents and children, family and friends, fans from back in the day, and those who have come to the artist more recently. They were all united by one common cause. As Ms Lauryn Hill reminded us just why this album and her performances had become the stuff of legend, the audience had only two real choices; To stand and stare at this iconic artist; To dance along, and stare at this iconic artist. She is known for freestyling through her set, often meaning that singing together is not the easiest thing to do, as she delivers unique takes on her music and wanders from the lyrical script. But as the better-known numbers occurred towards the end of the set, the whole arena could be heard singing the words to `”Killing Me Softly” and “Ready or Not”.

    Ms Lauryn Hill proved that all she needs is a stage, a collection of sublime songs, and her awesome vocals. The Dutch crowd lapped up every moment. Ms Hill carried the audience through memories and nostalgia, a tribute to 20 years of this fantastic album, and the equally amazing women who made it and proving that music, like fine wine, can also age gracefully.

    After such an inspiring musical experience, the last thing I wanted to do was jump on a train and rush home again, so I stayed at The Toren Hotel.

    The hotel seems to be stuck in another world, a mixture of the elegance and opulence of the past, a blend of original features and modern convenience. A few humorous touches to keep things exciting and offbeat, it works! A perfect place to compliment Eurostar and my comfort needs.

    Livenation lists a string of dates for Ms Lauryn Hill: Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 20th Anniversary Tour, including Wembley SSE Arena on 17th December 2018.
