This week AILBHE MALONEis living on chocolate ice cream

TRACK OF THE WEEK: Chancesby Venus in Furs. The debut single from this London girl group is amazing. We'd leave it at that and encourage you to just go and listen to it, but that's not going to fill the word count, so imagine Kylie, La Roux and Ladyhawke covering I Will Survive. Like we said, amazing.

Will.I.Amhas decided that Justin Bieber needs to suffer for his "art". Defiantly, Will said: "Justin as an artist has to fight. Michael Jackson fought, Prince fought, the ones that stood around for a long time are the ones that are always fighting for something... He's gonna hurt. He's going to go through relationship drama and that will make him successful." We presume that in terms of "drama" he's not advocating a split with Selena, and is instead thinking of something smaller scale – like there being no milk left in the fridge when Justin's just made a cup of tea.

N-DUBZ WATCH: So, the dubs have left their American record deal "due to creative differences over musical direction". Their statement says that "This was 100 per cent the band's decision and they remain signed to Universal worldwide." Speaking to the Sun, Dappy explained that "They should've stuck with the band they came to see at the Shepherd's Bush Empire. We were never going to co-operate with them when they decided to change what we are. If we had co-operated we would still be signed. But I stuck my finger up at them when they wanted us to make another Being N-DubzTV show. Tulisa thought we should do it because we could make some money out of it, but I said no."

We'll closethis week with another example of Pop Corner's sterling investigative journalism. It seems that Rihanna needs chocolate ice-cream to function, according to her personal trainer Ary Nunez.

“Chocolate ice cream is her comfort food . She says to me, ‘I need my quota’. I believe deprivation leads to disaster, so I don’t stop her – that’d be asking for trouble,” he claims. Choc-Ices all round!
