Read this just now on Popbitch and it made me laugh so much I had to share it:

Paul Weller bizarre-o goss
"Some time ago, Paul Weller was shagging this girl from Berlin. At an aftershow party, she was sat on his knee as they canoodled amongst the popping cans of Stella and dadrock faithful. Suddenly, Weller suddenly shouts at his bird to get up. "Come on! Get up, and start running around the room! Quick! Do it NOW!" Startled, she dutifully gets up and does his bidding. Weller chases her around the room making comedy grabbing motions towards her perambulating arse with his hands. She is very confused, being German and not used to the ways of the English, while the rest of the room fall about laughing. Why? Because the music playing was the theme tune from Benny Hill."
