No, No, Nao

I don't follow so-called celebrities on Twitter but, luckily, I know people who do and I rely on those good people to point out their solecisms. Here's a good one from @annfirth.

It's Naomi Campbell attempting to congratulate the fabulous Malala Yousafzai on winning the Nobel Peace Prize last week. And failing miserably.

Close, Naomi, but no cigar. Not even a tobacco leaf.

Even more astounding was her attempt to explain her errors on Instagram.

Not good enough, Nomes. Probably best to stick to whatever it is you do.

And keep well away from writing.

SuBo boo-boo

According to Greg L, the question on many people's lips this week is whether the decision by Susan Boyle's publicists to use a certain twitter hashtag was a deliberate ploy.

They were throwing a party to mark the release of Susan's new album of songs and decided that the following hashtag would be a good one to use.

#susanalbumparty

Which is fine as long as you remember that she's called Susan. But those same publicists have already persuaded the public to refer to her as SuBo. So she's become Su.

Now take another look at that hashtag.

Exactly.

Whether that encouraged more people to come, ahem, we'll never know.
