Optimism is denial, so face the facts and move on

An interview in today’s Telegraph with Il Divo in which the boys whinge about being called a boy band and try their best to convince readers that they should be taken seriously, puts Miss Mussel in an awkward position.

In this situation, poking fun is so easy its not even appealing. The boys’ own management even thinks their credibility has gone the way of the dodo. The most surprising part of that situation is that, apparently, this was news to the…erm…band. Beating someone when they’re clearly already down creates guilt that overrides any pleasure a victory might bring. Miss Mussel can’t bring herself to kick that vaguely handsome, mama-loving brood of puppies.

Well, at least not again.
