Spotted @ Perez Hilton..
It's not the fact that Madonna is miming with a pink wig on, it's the fact that she's on TOP OF THE POPS that gets me..
What a flashback, TOP OF THE POPS was THE music show that EVERYBODY tuned into to see the top 40 in the UK.
Many a Thursday night did I sit in front of the television for the show, only to jump up and start imitating whatever band or artist "moved me".
Now THAT's a British institution..

The best buildings sculpted from sand require the skills of an architect—sudden structural collapse is a significant risk—and the details depicted by some well-packed granules rival the most ornate towers and palaces you'd find on terra firma.Any of the examples (link below) could be widely regarded as significant structures—if only they hadn't washed away hours after their completion.
According to Ted Siebert's 1990 book, The Art of Sandcastling, "Seawater is an ideal bonding agent for a sand castle. As seawater in a sculpture evaporates, salt crystals remain, forming a thin crust over the entire surface. If the sculpture is sprayed from time to time, an additional buildup of salt crystals will help preserve the piece."
Take his advice, and start digging before summer ebbs away.

Los Angeles (E! Online) - Someone has taken Kate Moss' role as fashion's golden girl rather literally.British sculptor Marc Quinn is ready to unveil his latest creation to the world, a nearly $2.8 million, 110-pound solid gold statue of the supermodel, hyped as the largest such creation built since ancient Egypt.
Quinn, the artist behind 2006's Sphinx, a painted bronze statue of Moss in a somewhat provocative yoga pose, has dubbed his new golden girl Siren.
And the British Museum has already heeded its call.
While the venerable London museum has so far only released a close-up photo of the statue's face, the work purportedly shows Moss, once again, in the same contorted yoga pose as before.
"I thought the next thing to do would be to make a sculpture of the person who's the ideal beauty of the moment," Quinn said of his fabulously excessive creation. "But even Kate Moss doesn't live up to the image."
The British public will be able to determine for itself whether the statue succeeds where Moss apparently failed, with the objet d'art going on display in the the same British Museum gallery that houses the institution's ancient Greek sculpture collection.
The statue will be on display from Oct. 4 through Jan. 25.

I don't know why I find this so funny, Hari Puttar indeed, LMAO...Warner Bros studios has taken legal action against an Indian studio which plans to release a film entitled Hari Puttar - A Comedy Of Terrors.
The Hollywood giant has recently commenced proceeding against Mirchi Movies, of Mumbai, over the film in question, feeing its name is too similar to that of the Harry Potter franchise.
"We have recently commenced proceedings against parties involved in the production and distribution of a movie entitled Hari Puttar," Warner Bros spokeswoman Deborah Lincoln told The Hollywood Reporter.
"Warner Bros values and protects intellectual property rights.
"However, it is our policy not to discuss publicly the details of any ongoing litigation."
Hari Puttar - A Comedy of Terrors, tells of a ten-year-old boy who moves to England with his parents and becomes involved in a plot concerning a secret microchip and is set for a September 12th release in India.
Munish Purii, the chief executive of Mirchi Movies, said he was unable to offer significant comment as the case is sub-judice.
However, he added: "We registered the Hari Puttar title in 2005, and it's unfortunate that Warner has chosen to file a case so close to our film's release.
"In my opinion, I don't think our title has any similarity or links with Harry Potter."
Warner Bros recently confirmed that the release of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, the sixth film in the franchise, has been delayed by eight months until July 2009.
The movie will now spearhead Warner Bros' lineup of summer films.
