Every time I think I've scraped the bottom of the pop trash barrel, along comes something even more tragic. Tonight's gem is the debut single from Jordan's cross-dressing Ex. Alex Reid re-defines hot mess. His career progression went something like this: Cage fighter > sexing Katie Price > famed transvestite > international embarrassment. Shake my fucking head. Anyway, the 36-year-old has extended his 15 minutes by releasing a song called "Stardust". His voice sounds worse than Cheryl Cole singing acapella but this isn't the aural rape I was expecting. A collaboration with Welsh producers Shelter, the harmless dance anthem boasts a sweet little chorus. If they had given it to someone less ridiculous, "Stardust" could have been a good record but even in its current state, I'm a reluctant fan. The video (below) is less successful. Alex looks like he's taken one too many blows to the head and the whole concept is unintentionally hilarious. On the bright side, this is probably the least shameful moment of the Brit's post-martial arts career.
