This article about Amy Winehouse clinching a gig to play for Roman Abramovich in Russia is fascinating and brilliant. And not because Amy is obviously the most interesting person in the world right now, nor because Abramovich apparently thinks she'll actually show up, and not even because it insinuates that she and Scabby Pete are having an affair (hope they're precautioning! for all our sakes) but because it is apparent that it took three entire journalists to write a 250-word article with a singular, straight-from-the-press-release quote. On a not unrelated note, the London Paper, substrate for that article, seems to have lost Rupes more than 17 mil in 10 months. Sweet as.
