A number of media commentators have picked up on this story, but yet again only Mr Damian gets it right.

Contrary to popular belief, luxury jeweller Tiffany has not sued eBay over allegations that the online auctioneer has breached the Tiffany trademark by permitting fake items be sold on its domain.

Rather the online car boot site is being sued by former 80s pop star Tiffany. The flame haired songstress famous for her 1988 hit 'I Think We're Alone Now' and her terrible cover of the Beatles classic 'I Saw Her Standing There' has recently had a number of her bangles and oversize jumpers turn up on the site.

However upon closer inspection these items turned out to be fake. Tiffany, who now lives in a trailer park just outside Virginia Beach, is said to be frustrated that people are making money out of her name. "It's not on she says - these people are undermining me, my image and my music" she said before adding that "I never ever wore Pringle".

Tiffany is not as big in shopping malls as she once was.

The Greatest Hit of Tiffany will be released as a CD single in June 2008.
