A Year in Blog Land - Review of 2006
Brokeback Mountain was all the rage at the box office and the award ceremonies soon followed with gong after gone for this moving film. We even featured a picture of Heath Ledger naked.
Video Blogging was another prediction for 2006 - who would have thought YouTube would be sold for over $1b. Now everyone uses videos on their blog or MySpace.
February:
The controversial Islamic cartoons caused worldwide storm but raised the question about censorship. The Brits, NME, BAFTA's and Grammy's kept the blog busy with a celebration of British music and movies. Meanwhile news that Kym Marsh (ex- Hear'Say) and Anthony Costa (ex- Blue) were hopefuls for the UK entry in Eurovision was closely followed by Las Ketchup announcing they were entering for Spain................. none of them had need bother - neither Kym nor Anthony made it as the UK entry and Las Ketchup faired badly in the contest.
Ashley Cole kept the tabloids busy with allegations of drunken phone sex and two footballers performing oral sex on each other. The blog also had a sexy picture of singer Simon Webbe - topless!
March:
You could find out "31 Things About robmacca" this month and you were invited to "Spank The Monkey" at the same time. Eurovision got hot with some saucy pictures and video's of certain contestants doing the rounds!
The Commonwealth Games went to Australia and some interesting pictures followed, then Australia came here as one of my forum friends came to visit me in a mad 24 hour meet up.
Melanie C scored a #1 in Spain for 4weeks with "First Day of my Life", Melanie Brown dyed her hair red and Posh Spice looked darn sexy in black.
One unusual topic covered in March was the "Non- Uniform Day" that had thousands out in the streets................. erm naked!
Finally, it was time to get into the mood ahead of the World Cup, by posting a selection of sexy footballers pictures - just for the fun of it!
June:
'Definitely Maybe' by Oasis top the NME "Best Album of All Time Poll", 5 Celebs get pictured showing their knickers and the Ordinary Boys become popular. The video for "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira gets featured on the blog, then went on to spend 4 weeks at #1 in the UK charts. It was also announced that Top of the Pops would be axed after 42 years on the BBC.
Football fever took over the world as the World Cup arrived, along with about a million pop songs to milk that fact. Robmacca turned his hand to poetry when he wrote about being Prince Harry for the day, then seemed to turn into a James Blunt lookalike.
The end of June meant two weeks holiday in Cyprus - so to celebrate, new clothes were bought and a batch of pictures of guys in pants were published on the blog!
Love was in the air as Melanie Brown and Eddie Murphy started dating, it was announced love would be in your hand as Britain was to stage it's first "Wank-a-thon" and talk of a Spice Girls reunion surfaced once again to celebrate 10 years since they first exploded into the pop world.
August:
The nakedness continued even if the weather wasn't as good - robmacca posted some "bath time" pictures that whipped up a storm with Blog viewers. We had the Lynx man getting naked on our TV screens and 154 people sat around wanking in front of each other during the "Wank-a-thon" event in London.
Sex must have been in the water as a survey shockingly revealed that Britain's teens were not using condoms during sex and another finding showed that 30% of teenagers lost their virginity before the age of 16.
In the music world - Madonna celebrated her 48th, The Brits are going live in 2007 and Boy George was reduced to cleaning the streets!
September:
Summer ended with a colourful collection of pictures from the garden. There were also pictures of friends past and present during a visit to London. New friends were made thanks to the Hospitality Club. Bjork announces she will reunite with the Sugarcubes for a one off event, Corinne Bailey Rae wins some MOBO Awards and Arctic Monkeys - "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" wins the Mercury Award. We didn't even mention the robmacca "bedroom pictures" (at least this time the clothes stayed on!) ....................
Victoria Beckham was constantly in the media spotlight as she teamed up with Katie Holmes for the Paris Fashion Week, later that month 3,000 turned up to her book launch at Selfridges in London. Posh and Becks topped the "Chav Rich List" published in the Daily Mail.
Prince Harry was reported to have got his privates out on parade, the Spice Girls reunion looked unlikely and we asked if the MySpace bubble was about to burst. October's blog also featured lads in pants and David Beckham semi naked.
November
Was the comeback month - with Take That launching their album at the end of the month, Simon Webbe was back with a new album (another good excuse to show pictures of him topless!) and Top of the Pops makes a return for Christmas.
Christmas looming and Royal Mail stir up a fuss with their "non religious" stamps, Girls Aloud switched on the Christmas lights at Harrods, Emma Bunton did the Convent Garden Christmas Lights and we posted some Christmas gift idea's - including sheep that poo chocolate!
Spice news came in the form of Melanie B choosing wedding invites, Melanie C releasing a LIVE HITS DVD with a signing and singing at HMV Oxford Street, Emma released the single "Downtown". Victoria went shopping at Oxfam while her book went straight in at #2 in the non-fiction section. Geri was promoting safe sex in Zambia as part of her UN Goodwill Ambassador work as well as being on the cover of OK magazine with her baby.
It wouldn't be right to pass the month without some pictures of underwear and both Sarah Harding and robmacca were featured. It was Sarah though that got all the attention from visitors to the blog!
December
December was all about Melanie Brown and Eddie Murphy as news broke that they'd split in sensational style. As each day unfolded, the blog brought the latest twists and turns. Hundreds came to read the news as it became global. There were more rumours of a Spice Girls reunion and Emma Bunton released her album "Life in Mono" but it only charted at #65, selling 12,000 copies.
We remembered the Cheeky Girls and welcomed Take That back to the top of the album and singles chart. There was the quiet launch of "robmaccaEXTRA" that provided more pictures than the normal blog. The year wouldn't be complete without more Sarah Harding underwear pictures and finally the year was completed by Jesse Melcalf.
Hope you all enjoyed the Blog in 2006 and I look forward to 2007 - bringing even more randomness and extras. Have a great New Year!
Christmas - Highs and Lows
Highs: It was a busy social time catching up with friends throughout the month, some I hadn't seen for almost 10 years. An active social circle helps balance my "net" world, as real friends prove in so many ways just why they are my friends. It was also good to see one of my brothers in a more sober environment. As I said last year, I don't celebrate Christmas as such - yet I seem to be getting good at compromising!
It was a little treat to spend Christmas Day with Malcolm, Lorraine and Josh once again - it's become a mini tradition. Malcolm surprised us all as Lorraine and he pulled a cracker. Inside was an engagement ring, and after 12 years they are finally looking set to get married.
Here is the the only picture caught on camera as Malc got on bended knee to propose to Lorraine. I remember the days when they Malc lived at my house and they started going out, but that's a different story.............
Even though I don't send cards etc, it's still nice to get cards in the post, and friends and lovers from days gone by sent lovely messages/texts - which is a constant reminder that even if you can't see your friends, they still see you in their minds and hearts.
Lows, sadly also follow closely by as December was hard at the start as I had two weeks off work with depression (due to a whole string of events in November) and I had to battle against negative thoughts and feelings. Once again friends helped in many little ways, as did going to a counsellor!
Going out socially in Coventry can be an eye opener sometimes, as I found out during the festive period. When I was out with some former work colleagues at a crowded pub, the lads there were so rowdy and I was also scared to look anyone in the eye in case they hit me! As the night progressed it got rougher and several scuffles broke out and many drinks were spilt.
Talking of pubs and fights - I felt really ashamed of my city/country on Christmas Eve as I'd invited my 3 Lithuanian student friends (see September's Blog) out for the night. This was their first Christmas here and they were all away from family and friends , yet we were having a good night out. That was until some idiot bloke shattered any good image Coventry may have had. This drunken fool hit my friend - breaking his teeth, making his eye bleed and almost damaging his glasses and camera. For what reason? None other than my friend was innocently taking pictures of the pub and the people. It makes me sad that people feel the need for aggression once they have had a drink......................
While the season is a great time for caring and sharing, it can also be a time of thoughtless acts. The picture above was taken by me today while out on my post round, it shows how someone has broken all the glass panels in the telephone box.
So for 2007, may we be realists that see both sides to a story, yet are able to stay focused on the good. Even though we may stumble and fall at times - remember those friends around you that pick you up when your at your weakest. They may also need you to support them when they face hard times. Friendship can be in the form of a text or a call, a card or a cuddle but being a friend to others is what makes the world a better place..........................

KARLA CASOS
Le dicen la Angelina Jolie peruana pero la verdad es que al margen del parecido, Karla Casós tiene un no sé qué que ella sí sabe qué es. La espigada joven acaba de lanzar un calendario que trae dos desnudos integrales, no frontales y sí de muy buen gusto.

Video of the Week - "Before I Fall To Pieces" - Razorlight
See if you can spot the famous actor in the video, I'll be watching it for the topless action of course!
Before I Fall To Pieces is out now on 7", CD and for the first time ever on DVD single featuring the videos for ‘Before I Fall To Pieces’ and ‘In The Morning’, as well as a link to exclusive Razorlight material including a computer game
Cheeky Girls Video Tribute
Cheeky Girl Gabriela Irimia has hit the headlines this past week for all the wrong reasons as it was revealed she has started a relationship with the flamboyant politician Lembit Opik. The Liberal Democrat MP recently ended his engagement to Sian Lloyd, the TV weather presenter. This is what has caused a cheeky stir in the media.
Here at robmacca we love drama and this mismatched relationship will surely end in tears, so why not get your tissues ready now as we pay a special tribute to the Cheeky Girls with a selection of video's to have you wiping those tears away................
1. See the Cheeky Girls twins interviewed by those cheeky ginger Irish boys Podge and Rodge:
2. It wouldn't be Christmas unless you have a "Cheeky Christmas":
3. The Cheeky Girls add some Cheeky Boys to the next song "Girls and Boys (Christmas Time Love)" and a video you'll probably never have seen before!
4. We move from forgettable to regrettable. This video launched the Cheeky Girls at #2 on the UK charts in December 2002 with "Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum)". If you had been out clubbing you may have seen robmacca dancing to this song - and yes, he even did the dance!
5. This is where it all began on "Popstars: The Rivals" auditions programme. See the Cheeky Girls perform before the judges and meet their mother!
You'll be pleased (or sad) to know the Cheeky Girls came to an abrupt end when the record label they were signed to went bankrupt and they disappeared from the public eye, until this week of course...................

Mel B: "I wasn't famous enough"
According to Closer magazine, Melanie Brown is said to have confided in friends saying that she wasn't a big enough star for Eddie Murphy - and that's why he dumped her. A pal is quoted as saying:
"Mel feels she's been given the push because she isn't A-list enough for Eddie in Hollywood.She may have been a big star in Britain, but in the States she's an unknown.
Mel knows that Eddie is desperate to make a movie comeback in Hollywood. She believes she has been sacrificed for the sake of his career."
The source went on to say: "She's totally devastated by all of this. Her world has been torn apart."
Eddie's sources are quoted as saying: "Eddie started dating Mel about two months after he divorced and he regarded it as a rebound fling. He thinks she took the relationship more seriously than he did and was stunned when she told pals they were planning on getting married."
The source concluded: "Eddie's family were wary of Mel because things had moved so fast. When she announced she was pregnant, they liked her even less."
So from weekend stories of Melanie apparently "cheating" we now see this story that claims Melanie "wasn't A-list" enough. get ready for the next chapter...............

Was Melanie Brown Cheating?
A while back robmacca reported how Melanie Brown (Mel B) was spotted arm in arm during a weekend out in London. Now the News of the World is reporting that Melanie was dumped by Eddie Murphy because he found out she went on a "date" while in LA last month.
Apparently, Eddie hired a team of detectives to tag Melanie. They then handed him a dossier showing Mel had been on secret date. Melanie hit back by saying:
"It just goes to show how desperate Eddie has got. I may have met another man for entirely innocent purposes, but I was always faithful to Eddie. He is the father of my baby and he knows it".
How true any of this story is, remains an unsolved case that even Sherlock Holmes might have trouble solving!

Emma Bunton - A week in Mono
It's been such a week of news for anyone who likes any of the Spice Girls. As robmacca has been reporting on Melanie Brown's very public split from Eddie Murphy all week, then we had the Spice Girl reunion stories last weekend. Melanie C was on "An Audience With Take That" and Victoria is never far from the media lens.
Behind the scenes "Baby Spice" Emma Bunton has been hard at work. She's been training for about 6 hours a day for "Strictly Come Dancing", then tonight will appear before 10 million people as she battles to stay in the show with dance partner Darren. Last weekend Emma returned to G-A-Y at London's Astoria for a special live show to launch the new album "Life in Mono". Packed crowds watched as Emma performed "Something Tells Me", "Maybe", "Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps", "Take Me To Another Town" and "Downtown" with some sexy dance routines.
Watch some of the performance here:
This week Emma went on breakfast's GMTV and dressed in a sexy yellow outfit, performed "Something Tells Me" with a very festive feel to it. You can check out the performance here:

Scary Bites Back
It's not only the press who have been in a frenzy about the story, but Mel B is said to be "furious" at the way Eddie made it public. The drama unfolded yesterday as photographers started a fight as Melanie was leaving a Beverly Hills restaurant. The paparazzi scrap was caught on video by TMZ.com and can be seen here:
Meanwhile the newspapers are full of stories that Melanie is prepared to bite back and is set to "take Eddie to the cleaners".
The Sun says that Melanie: "spent yesterday in Los Angeles locked in meetings with top Hollywood lawyers to decide who is best to represent her." She is reported to have told a friend:
"He's going to get a shock if he thinks I'm taking this kind of treatment lying down.
He's a cheating, lying scumbag - he's the father of my baby and he knows it."
The Mirror took a different angle with the headline "I'm Beyond Gutted" and a story that supposes Mel only found out when friends text her phone as she flew back to the US this week after a wedding in the UK at the weekend. A friend is quoted as saying:
"Mel's beyond gutted. She was set to marry this guy and now he's knocked the wind out of her."
On the net MSN News it is reported that Melanie's publicist, Nadine Bibi gave a statement on her behalf saying:
"There is absolutely no question that Eddie is the father."
The drama continues to unfold with new twists each day, we'll keep you up to date as news arrives.

Melanie/Eddie Story Continues.....
The worlds press have been reporting the break up of Melanie Brown (Scary Spice) and Eddie Murphy with quite dramatic headlines. But now the dust has begun to settle, will we be any nearer the facts?
First, we have Murphy's team denying he'd even said anything about DNA tests to prove who the father would be - but being proved liars as the video makes its way around the internet.
Second, it's been rumoured Melanie fell out with Eddie's live-in mother and his staff finding Melanie "rude and abrasive".
Finally, there is the whole dramatic headlines about Melanie not finding out she'd been dumped until Eddie and Tracey were pictured at this weeks premier.
All the headlines seem to be more speculation rather than fact, but now we find two camps. One camp exposing Murphy as the bad father who dumps the woman he was going to marry. The other, has Melanie Brown as the gold digger who got up the duff to force Eddie to marry her.

Eddie The Cheetah!
Turns out Eddie Murphy was quite the "cheetah" on leopard skinned Scary Spice (Melanie Brown), as it turns out he's been dating Tracey Edmonds for about 6 weeks. The love rat spoke out a few days ago saying he wasn't with Melanie Brown anymore and had no idea who the father of her unborn child will be, implying that Melanie was the one who slept around.
But as the story unfolds, it seems he is the cheating one as Melanie had no idea she had been dumped for Tracey(ex wife of "Babyface"). Melanie was quite loved up with Murphy and was looking forward to having his baby, spending Christmas with him and getting married. Now that dream is in tatters.
It's been reported today that Eddie's staff did not get along with Mel, finding her "rude and abrasive". Eddie is said to have "hit the roof" when he found out what Mel had allegedly been saying to them.
Watch this space for more news........................

Mel B and Eddie Split?
A few days ago we reported Melanie Brown was back in the UK and about 5 months pregnant. But now newspapers like The Sun are reporting Eddie Murphy and Scary Spice (Mel B) have not only split up but he is questioning if the baby is even his!
Murphy told an interviewer in New York:
"And I don't know whose child that is, until it comes out and has a blood test.
"You shouldn't jump to conclusions, sir."
The pair began dating in June, just two months after Murphy divorced Nicole, his wife of seven years. The romance quickly blossomed and they introduced the actor's five children to Mel's seven-year-old daughter Phoenix Chi.
In September, Murphy declared his strong feelings for Mel, saying: "I am madly in love with her."
Mel also cooed about her relationship with the Doctor Dolittle star recently.
"All the children have met and get on — it's like a great big happy family.
"I can't wait to spend Christmas with him or to have this baby."
