Earlier this year, after Joe McElderry’s big X Factor win, I finally had to admit to myself that I liked Cheryl Cole. I can’t exactly pin down why. It’s most certainly not her L’Oreal commercials, or even her style. I just find her a bit fascinating in a very simple way.

Women coming together and collaborating for a good cause could never be a bad thing, and Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper teaming up as the faces of MAC cosmetic’s VIVA GLAM campaign is 100% amazing.

I am not accustomed to agreeing with Liz Jones. Her writing is definitely typical of Daily Mail writers in that it seems designed to provoke and offend, and aside from that, she just seems slightly insane.This weekend though, she wrote an article containing something which almost resembled a good point. It was also deeply offensive, but this is Liz Jones - you’re supposed to get annoyed. Her basic argument was (I think) that the honour killings we hear so much about in countri...

While people have been running bake sales for a long time, it seems that the idea of whipping up and selling homemade baked goods for a good cause is all the rage.Schools in the UK held bake sales to raise money for Haiti, and now both UK charities Shelter and Bliss are asking for the good folks in the United Kingdom run week long bake sales and sell their own cakes to help raise money for both of their causes.

The collaboration is what ActionAid describe as being a “celebration of the resilience, humour and hope seen in the women it works with in some of the poorest countries in the world.”

The Haiti earthquake's brought out a number of massive campaigns to raise money for the victims who will clearly be affected for some time. Susan Porritt's just launched a female-orientated fund raising idea. In the same vein as the ad campaign that prodded you into not only giving money but also thinking by showing a picture of third world water source and asking the question: How much would you pay not to drink this water? For me the answer started as 'a fiver?' and then slowly wen...

"Oral sex" isn't a bad word. It's not a four-letter expletive; it's not even a nickname for a sexual part of human anatomy. And yet, because it has to do with sex, it MUST BE BAD.That's how some parents down in Menifee, California think, anyway. So passionately that a complaint about "oral sex" being in the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dicti...

When Lily Allen first burst onto the scene in 2006, I was in l-o-v-e. Her poofy bangs, her sassy attitude, her catchy tunes about nans being window shoppers and boys that ejaculate prematurely... She was a girl after my own heart.Sure, plenty of people didn’t like her. She talked shit about people like Amy Winehouse, Cheryl Cole, Kate Nash, and pretty much anyone else she didn’t like. She blogged about feeling inadequate. She Tweeted about what a dick Perez Hilton was. She was availabl...

While I am fully appreciative and supportive of the NHS, one of my biggest concerns with the system has been their policy to not give women cancer screening smears until the age of 25.
