MYMU Scandal Part 413

So the MYMU scandals carry on in the UK - which is brilliant! All publicity is good publicity as far as UK Eurovision is concerened.

Today, Scooch were featured on the front page of the Daily Mirror with the marvellous pun "The Eurovision Song CONtest". This refers to Scooch having offstage backing singers. Apparantly they were "lying the flag" and they've been branded cheats and miming artists. There are a few flaws here though.

• There is no rule saying you can't have backing singers offstage, it's perfectly legitimate.
• Scooch didn't mime, they were singing too. You can tell because they were singing the verses.
• All 6 acts at MYMU were offered the chance to have offstage backing singers. All declined.

So there you are, mountain out of a molehill, no rules were being broken. It's as if people are implying that they're not allowed to do the same thing at Eurovision - but they are, you can have offstage backing singers there too! So why the fuss!

Well, it's old Justin Hawkins getting on his high horse again. Brian Harvey also complained. If only backing singers had drowned him out, it might have sounded like he wasn't dying whilst singing his song.

In Wogan news, he WAS given the right name down his earpiece. He just either misheard or wanted to muck it all up. Maybe he needs his ears syringing.

Anyway, out of all this, Cyndi seems to be the only one with any dignity left. Are we sure Scooch really won? Is it too late to send her insted?! It is? Oh well. No doubt there'll be more gossip tomorrow.
