Why 27,586 people probably love Marks and Spencer a little bit more.

Famous for five minutes

Skittles, famous for 15 days?

How good is the new Britney come back?!

In my opinion it's in the so bad, it's good territory with an amazing video and yes, I unashamedly love it. How have I formed this strong and ridicule enticing opinion when it doesn't go on sale in the UK for weeks? It has been everywhere...
