I would never Pikachu in the shower

It's difficult to decide at some of these events whether the celebrities are there for free goods or just to promote themselves. Based on the fact that this is a Pokemon launch, we're assuming it's going to be attended by various skint, yet famous, people just popping along to pick up a copy of the game for their kids. Of course, in the wild and wonderful world of non-sequiturs this means that everyone there is trying to pick up a game for their sproglets, so in conclusion, JLS ALL HAVE SECRET LOVE CHILDREN. 

 

...And that's how rumours start. You heard it here first.

Along with those naughty philandering JLS boys (see, we're already treating it as gospel and it only happened one sentence ago) we had a slightly unusual collection of C to E listers at the Nintendo launch. Gaby Roslin, of all people, was joined on that very tasteful cream carpet by Shingai Shoniwa of the Noisettes, Wand Erection, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Keeley Hawes and a very sheepish looking Matt Horne (does Mathew become Mat or Matt?) whom we suspect may have actually been there to collect the free goodies for himself, having quite a bit of spare time these days.

 

Also, Gail Porter and her daughta' turned up like they ought ta' (it was worth it), although poor little Honey Hipgrave seems to be about to come a cropper as she steps on her own shoelace. We know, you simply can't get this kind of news and insight anywhere else.

  • Keeley Hawes would show up to watch paint dry if it meant she'd get her photo snapped.

  • At least Gail Porter took her kid along. How come none of the others could be bothered to share the limelight(sic) with an under 12. Is'nt there some agency in London you can rent kids out as a fashion accessory then? Good marketing opportunity there for MR G Glitter seeing as he sells fuckall records now.

  • Wand Erection, second from left, he has a very strange face.
