The Flip Side

Ashley Tisdale

I’m not the biggest fan of pop music (one can’t help but see Ashley Tisdale’s videos everywhere) but I have to admit that Ashley is a very talented pop singer and her songs are very addictive.  Have a look at “He Said, She Said” and tell me you don’t (if even begrudgingly) agree.  While I knew who she is from my horrific jaunt into Disney Channel’s world (specifically from HSM and HSM2 and “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody) I hadn’t realized what an accomplished pop star she is becoming until VH1 started airing her videos.  They have an aura of fun about them with an ever so miniscule amount of sexiness.  I think that suits tween parents and allows tweens to see how it’s done without being vulgar in any way.

Robert Plant and Jimmy Page

This was a great idea and they raised a lot of money for the Children in Need charity.

LONDON (Reuters) - A man from Glasgow paid 83,000 pounds ($170,000) for a pair of tickets to a one-off Led Zeppelin reunion gig in London on December 10, according to the BBC which organized the charity auction.

Kenneth Donell was the winner of Thursday’s sale held by radio host Terry Wogan for the Children in Need charity. Over the last four days, the auction has raised 894,000 pounds, the BBC added.

Several million fans tried to buy tickets to the Led Zeppelin reunion gig at London ’s O2 arena, which had to be postponed after guitarist Jimmy Page broke a finger.
The tickets went on sale at 125 pounds each, although they are trading at several times that on the online auction site www.ebay.co.uk.
