Britney
Britney is all set for a great year. In fact the mystics predict that 2006 will see Brit finally get together with the man of her dreams, and to help her along the way, she'll have drafted up a set of guidelines. These include:
Robbie Williams
They had to rub a lot of balls to get this verdict, but the mystics are adamant that Robbie Williams will be all smiles in 2006. This is mostly down to a clever cloning/PR campaign, which sees Rob win Celebrity Love Island, I'm A Celebrity, Strictly Come Dancing and Extreme Celebrity Snow Plough Derby simultaneously. Also, Robbo invents a CD barcode that hypnotises people into thinking he's a normal bloke, allowing him to walk anywhere he likes without being swamped by fans. Unless they're beautiful lady fans, in which case the bar code tags and catalogues them for pursuit at a later date. Muahahaha!
Pussycat Dolls
Tired of being accused of having only one actual singer, the Pussycat dolls decide to prove otherwise, with the help of cosmetic technology. With the release of each single, they swap faces around so that it looks like each Doll can sing as well as Nicole. Unfortunately, after three singles, the girls forget what they looked like originally, causing a massive face-off. James Blunt also suffers a series of slaps to the head as a result of numerous mistaken-girlfriend-based mix-ups.
James Blunt
As if the PCD face-swapping horror isn't enough for poor old Blunty, experts claim that James faces a career-threatening danger in 2006. Crystal balls were sketchy on the details, but James has been urged to steer clear of bike saddles, maurading toddlers, angry girlfriends and famished, short sighted squirrels. Failure to do so could result in the first ever testicular-powered sonic boom, which will result in the biggest dog riot the world has ever seen.
Indie Bands
Finally, a rum year is predicted for our beloved indie bands. The problems start when he of the most cleverest clogs, Ricky Wilson, announces the world's first indie-inspired science day. All hell breaks loose in Manchester, when a gang of hypothermic monkeys from the Arctic attempted to warm themselves on a man with a radio in his head. Meanwhile, an accident with a razor/light leaves one monkey in need of stitches, and sunglasses, and body hair. Further outcry results when a new child buggie, the Babyshambler, crashes into a fountain. Experts blame the near-tragic addicent on the buggie's BBQ griddle-based carriage, and the four different sized wheels, made of quiche.
