More evil: skimpflation or shrinkflation?
The worse of all is when they change the formula of a product I use regularly, like makeup or shampoo or vitamins. At least if it's less it's still what you need. But if they change the whole thing to have worse quality than it's like you bought it for nothing. I'd rather pay for less than pay for something practically worthless. Like how Chanel sells cheap leather that starts to peel while the stuff from the 80s is still in tact. Or washing machines that lasted decades but modern ones break down in a few years. This is why it sucks when a company is bought out by a bigger one. They always start by cheapening the ingredients. (that's assuming I understood what u meant by this term bc I never heard it before)

It depends on the product but in general skimpflation. Quality >> quantity

So they are changing the theme or he is simply avoiding the event? I assumed the latter but surely the criticism is regarding the former?

Cheryl to join The Voice UK 2027 as coach, Alesha Dixon as co-host
This is so so true. Danii Minogue and Tulisa both tried to build off their X factor fame and literally nothing. Cheryl was (imo) more captivating than them in terms of beauty, but they were all gorgeous and talented performers with a good ear for hits. On the flip side, I feel that Hall of Fame got boosted a lot by will i am and that guy from The Script being on The Voice around this time. So it was possible. I think Tulisa also got Young boosted out of this era. But it never solidified into three albums worth of a successful career like it did for Cheryl.

Ooh this would've been tea. Idk why she turned down the traitors it literally had 1/5 of the country watching it at its peak, and is still going strong. maybe the interpersonal aspect scares her off.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle moving back to the UK
Goodness, the vile comments on here. Not to be surprised from seemingly progressive gays who get all their drama gossip from the bottom of the barrel hate train-starting media outlets they claim to despise. They are not "running out of money". Harry's trust from Diana alone is said to be in the 10s to 100s of millions, and with the Spencer family actively inviting him to stay with them when they visit the UK, it's clear he is not only on good terms with his mothers family, but that they are sending a massive F U to the royals. his uncle (Diana's brother) has expressed his full support for his nephew and niece-in-law, and is releasing a book on his sisters life which the royals allegedly tried to block. The Spencer's are the oldest noble family in the UK, older than the royals, and one of the wealthiest. Their hospitality alone will ensure Harry and his family is decently set up. This is almost certainly due to Charles rumoured terminal cancer. The same people slamming him would rip him to absolute shreds if he wasn't at the bedside when Charles eventually passes. They are saying Charles has 2 years left. This is likely a balanced decision from two overly hated royals to make sure their kids spend time with their grandfather before he passes. Why else would they keep their mansion home in the States instead of selling it? They very likely plan to move back.

Hoku announces comeback to pop music
I admire how she spoke up about perverts in the industry before it was acceptable to do so. Being a teenager expected to give blowjobs to old radio execs is a special type of evil. Yet people here are mocking her for never having charted? Or for publicising her faith which she needed to depend on through those times? Anyway. I'm ready for another Perfect Day. Platinum in my household regardless of its streaming numbers.

Why was there a version of Check it out with Cheryl?
Will had a rumoured crush on Cheryl, and had worked on 3 Words from her debut with her, and was a guest judge at her house on X Factor. While this version was never released in US, I think the studio execs over there were meant to see it and keep an eye on her as a potential investment, so it was still US promo in a sense. Artists like Selena Gomez and Rihanna were also hyping her up so she seemed ready to break the US with lots of celeb support. Nicki and Will were both very popular by the time this came out though. Black eyed peas were icons and Will/Ferg were the only ones we knew and Nicki had multiple hits including SuperBass so they didn't need Cheryl at all. I think Will wanted to support her before she became big in USA in the hopes it would pay off for him. I understand his logic, it was a good bet. If it wasn't for the accent, lack of talent, declining work ethic and the X Factor US blow, he would have made a very good investment as she seemed a sure bet for the US market at the time.
