LINDA PERRY REFUSING TO WEAR PUFFY-SLEEVED DRESS

If rumours are to be believed - and let's face it, most often rumours are much more fun to believe - Avril Lavigne is engaged to be married to Deryck Whibley, the brightest one out of Sum 41. Who still can't spell Derek. According to Us magazine, Whibley asked her at the weekend, and she said "I can't wait to be Avril Whibley."

Now is not the time for cynical sideline carping - we'll wait until the wedding before we give it nine months.
