Rock and Roll
Current mood: blah
Hello ,
Happy belated new year to everybody , as you know Maggie May is back although I am thinking of changing her name since I've heard that is going to be the name of Kerry Katonas new child . I am in Tokyo having played two shows here already and we are about to get on a bullet train to Nagoya , which is all very exciting . Before I left , I did a video shoot for the next single , which is Alfie , and that was quite alot of fun , Alfie was played by a puppet and the whole thing looks like an episode of a mixture Tom and Jerry and Roger Rabbit , you'll understand when you see it . The whole day was a pleasurable experience , except the Kerry Katona (ie unhealthy iceland stuff) catering left alot to be desired. The day after that I did a photo shoot for something I'm not allowed to talk about with an amazing photographer , who I'm also not allowed to talk about, but all will become clear in due course , we shot at Spring Studios in Kentis Town and the catering was lovely , just incase you were worried .
On Wednesday I left for Tokyo we dont know when we're coming back as we go to New Zealand , Australia and America after , so Emily ( my assistant ) and I stocked up on music and gossip magazines to keep us entertained over the next few weeks . As usual I feature in the circle of shame section of heat magazine this week , althogh this time not for walking to the shops without a couture dress , spray tan and piles of make up . Yes a lovely paparazzi got down on the floor and took a picture directly up my nose . The caption reads something along the lines of " glow in the dark bogeys " , now of coure like everybody else in the world , the inside of my nose consists of some moist matter that might shine when a huge fuck off camera flash is pointed at it , the same exact way that my lip gloss and forehead do in the same picture , I wouldn't like to speculate what the magazine in question were trying to insinuate but they were wrong .
The flight was highly enjoyable and empty so Emily and I were able to lie down and sleep all the way . I had a gig the night I got here which wasn't great due to my awful rendition of " litllest things" and jet lag, but the crowed seemed to enjoy it . I had a day off the next day so I went shopping , I bought a North Face camouflage jacket , which will come in handy at Glastonbury and other festivals and a hooded sweatshirt which is colourful and printed all over . According to the fashion blogosphere these type of hoodies are a huge no no in 2007 , infact there is quite alot of anger directed at them , I have more impotant things to be angry about , and besides I like the hoodie , so i bought it . Then i went back to the hotel and watched 5 episodes of the fourth series of the West Wing and went to soundcheck for a gig at the liquid rooms , the gig was much better than the night before and we did our versin of the Specials' Blank Expression , which went down really well .
I woke up at 3 in the morning due to jet lag and went through some emails , checked my forum on my website to see that my fans are angry I have been neglecting them , I havent posted on there in ages ( I'm going to, once I've finished this blog !) .And then I went to sleep again .
We had another day off yesterday , I did more shopping , ran into one of The Basement Jaxx in Tokyo hands ( japanese woolworths ) I bought a keyring shaped like an edemame ( soy bean) and a small remote control helicopter , which I now have to carry all around the world ,cause it wont fit in my suitcase ( this place makes you do weird things ) . Then I went for lunch with the boys and went back to the room to finish off The West Wing . I have given up booze for 2007 so I didn't go to the Dubliners Pub with evreyone for dinner and the Man Utd game , they said they had a laugh but I bet I had more fun watching Steve Jobs' (CEO of Apple Inc, formerly known as Apple Computers Inc ) Keynote presentation on the Iphone , it lasts over an hour , I want one , sooooooooo badly . God I'm Rock and Roll . Oh and just incase you were interested The Killers are staying in the same hotel as us .
EDIT , Can everyone please stop calling Kate Nash the new Lily Allen , Kate is a very talented songwriter and her music sounds nothing like mine , she exists i her own right and it must be really annoying for her to be compared to me the whole time ! thank you .
