• Playboy twins, puritans, what's the difference?

  by Frankie Mullin January 11
    What do Celebrity Big Brother Playboy twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon and this terrifying woman in the Daily Mail have in common? More than you think.   On the surface of it, the women are polar opposites: The twins made their name in the Playboy Mansion, famous for being hot, ge...

• Horoscopes are bullshit but I love them

  by Frankie Mullin December 16, 2011
    It's normal to live with a certain amount of conflict and inconsistency, I tell myself. For instance, on one level, I have absolutely no interest in what the latest eye-gougingly average celebrity is doing with their five minutes in the tabloids. And yet, week after week, I find myself che...

• Jeremy Clarkson 'shoot the strikers' comments: Big deal?

  by Frankie Mullin December 1, 2011
  I never thought I'd see the day I was defending Jeremy Clarkson but here I am, god help me.   Yesterday the ever-obnoxious Clarkson appeared on The One Show and shared his less than liberal views on what should be done with the strikers.   "I'd have them all shot," he said. "I would ...

  by Frankie Mullin November 23, 2011
  I plucked up the courage to visit my local swimming pool last night; the first time I’ve braved a dip in about 20 years.My lack of enthusiasm is, in part, because I can’t always be bothered to shave my legs, but mainly it’s due to my fear of lurking gore in what is essentially a la...

  by Frankie Mullin November 15, 2011
  I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here. I won’t be alone in stating my eye-gouging aversion to this show but, for me, the heightened blood pressure and mental anguish I feel when watching – or even thinking about – the programme has nothing to do with the contestants.I&...

  by Frankie Mullin November 4, 2011
  Did you see the Evening Standard’s fashion shoot at the Occupy St Paul’s protest? Taking inspiration from Vice magazine, which shot a fashion story during the London riots, the feature showed a journalist posing in the tent city, complete with bleached bob and peace-sign maxi-dress. The ...

• Justin Bieber not a virgin? Never Belibed him anyway

  by Frankie Mullin November 4, 2011
    As far as creating a quasi-religious cult goes, the marketing execs behind Justin Bieber should be awarded full marks. The fanatical devotion of ‘Beliebers’ to their demi-God reached fever-pitch last week when allegations that the 16-year-old singer fathered a child became publ...

• George Osbourne's wanker joke is insight into psyche

  by Frankie Mullin November 2, 2011
  The Eton set just don't get it. Here's why that matters.   George, George. You got it so wrong didn’t you? Now everyone thinks you’re a tosser. And that’s the economy aside. For those who missed it, last week the chancellor made such a stomach-churningly misguided attempt ...
