Sophie Ellis Bextor found dead in French Footballer's hotel room!

Police say it's a case of 'Murder on Zidane's floor'.

That's appalling. Really, really, appalling.

11:57 / 16.10.03

...and really quite old. I got this on email on Monday.

Tryphena Absent

12:00 / 16.10.03

Not that old if you only got it on Monday. But appalling!

12:04 / 16.10.03

I did say "quite"! Two more people have sent me it since then, and now this! I just can't take it anymore! I have joke-fatigue.

14:57 / 16.10.03

I don't get it...

It's a pun on the name of her single "Murder On The Dance Floor."

21:02 / 16.10.03

Flyboy, I've just lost all respect for you.

22:07 / 16.10.03

Whereas mine has doubled.

06:13 / 17.10.03

Flyboy's gag made Popbitch this morning.

Jack The Bodiless

10:36 / 17.10.03

I just read that wrong, bizarrely, and thought you said "Flyboy plays pop, bitch!"

11:14 / 17.10.03

No, you read it right. It's a Noughties re-imagining of 80s telly classic "Cheggers Plays Pop".

11:15 / 17.10.03

Or possibly this morning someone's father was not very happy at Flyboy's joke.

11:16 / 17.10.03

So bad...

11:18 / 17.10.03

And before anyone else says it, I did not write "Flyboy's pop made bitch gag this morning", which would be so very wrong in so very many ways.

12:33 / 17.10.03

Just curious: Are any Barbeloids regular Popbitchers / L**h***ers?

12:52 / 17.10.03

Does Flux get irony?

I feel I ought to clarify at this point that Sophie Ellis Bextor is neither dead, not has she ever been linked to any French footballers in any capacity, to the best of my knowledge.

I think this joke is fantastic and I just someone who doesn't laugh easily and she laughed.
