PINK BLOG POST: VICTORIAN FIRES
In a statement released through her representatives in Australia, P!nk has expressed sympathy with the victims of the fires.
I’ve been really affected by the media images of the tragic bush-fires in Victoria.
My heart goes out to all those who have suffered so much in these circumstances.
There’s little anyone can do at such a long distance away but I wanted to make a tangible expression of support.
I will be donating $250,000 to the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal, and hope that this, amongst all the other outpouring of charitable support, will help the rebuilding of lives and communities in the areas affected.
I’m looking forward to returning to a country I love so much.

DBLOG – HEAR IT FIRST
Australian Idol winner Guy Sebastian has posted an announcement on social networking site Twitter saying he was threatened with a knife in a street mugging in LA.
“Oh my gosh, I just got mugged at knife-point no kidding!” he wrote. “Got a meatball subway and was met outside by two thugs who wanted cash! $150!”
News Limited reports the attack took place outside a Subway restaurant on the streets of Hollywood around 3am on Saturday.
“It was after working late in the studio and he didn’t have his wallet or phone on him, so just gave them the money he had,” his agent Titus Day said.
“He threw the money at them to distract them and when they went to get it, he ran and jumped in his car and went back to the hotel.”
But Sebastian did not contact police over the incident because he was not worried about the money.
“He said they were young and seemed like homeless guys, and that he didn’t feel like he was in serious danger,” Day said.
That’s a little daft, Guy. Not reporting it leaves them free to try it again.
