Prediction: Charlotte Church Becomes As Popular as Britney

Charlotte Church as popular as Britney? Crazy? Maybe. But I have this feeling that she will be. If I’m wrong, I’ll look stupid. If I’m right, I’ll at least be able to say I said so.

Why do I say this? Well, she can sing. That always helps. She’s 16 and sick of doing her operetic stuff and wants to go pop. She is starring in a movie. She’s cute. She has an English accent. OK, so maybe some of those are stupid reasons.

Just remember, if it happens, you heard it here first.
