Maybe you want to rephrase that?

Bearing in mind most of yesterday's papers carried the hideously swollen bruised eye of the woman punched in the face by Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Tweedy - the John Prescott of manufactured pop - maybe the spokesperson for Polydor should have thought before saying "There's more to this than meets the eye."

Polydor seem very keen to deny that there was any racial element to Cheryl beating the crap out of a toilet attendant, as you'd expect. They're threatening to sue someone, which could be quite an interesting court case. Popstars experiencing mood swings in nightclub toilets. Hmmm.
