There is justice in the world. Artificial boy/girl group "Scandal'us" were the winners of last year's Popstars show in Australia. After the TV series was finished, their number one single (the name of which escapes me) was a certainty.

This morning, I saw an advertisement on TV. "Scandal`us" are performing live, but they are now second billing to Dorothy the Dinosaur from the Wiggles. Not all the Wiggles, just the dinosaur. It's nice when Andy Warhol is proved right.

Adults at children's prices. *snicker*

Slightly more unsettling is the advertisement from McDonalds that's on now, complete with a singing Ronald Mcdonald. The subtext of the advert seems to be "if your mother loved you, she'd buy you a hamburger".
