Don't shoot Bambi!
Aussies are angry, yes we are. Or so all our major media outlets are telling us.

Over the last few days the news agencies have been going fast and furious with the Delta dumping scandal.

Delta Goodrem, Aussie actress, singer and all out 'national sweetheart' has been dumped by her boyfriend tennis player Mark Philippoussis for Paris Hilton (who does not require any introduction).

I've seen a bit of wank on LJ, but the best has come from the media, last night Channel 7 tracked down Mark's mother who refused to say anything bad about her son, fellow Aussies, wasn't that just a classy example of intrepid reporting?

Treating Delta Goodrem caddishly - if that is what Philippoussis has done - is emerging as a crime on a par with shooting Bambi.

Hi Delta, it's over, I'm off to Paris

The only leading character saying anything publicly is Paris Hilton, the 23-year-old heiress infamous as the star of a porn home movie.


Hilton reportedly declared over the weekend: "I've got a new man … he's so hot. His name is Mark Philippoussis."

a story about the golden girl of pop betrayed by the handsome but broody Philippoussis, who had fallen victim to the mesmerising charms of the bleached and perma-tanned Wicked Witch of West Hollywood, Paris Hilton.

One indignant fan writing on Delta's website wondered how Philippoussis could possibly trade a "sweet, beautiful caring girl" for a "silly rich bimbo who isn't exactly the brightest crayon in the box".

Ah, it's so sweet for them to report the wank online, I don't have to go look (because I'm lazy), but the news was better yesterday.
