Pete Waterman, one-third of the pop pap factory Stock Aitken Waterman, which gave us Kylie, Sonia and Bananarama, complained last week that The X Factor lacks discernable personalities. "The X Factor is a freak show," he said. "If you're a good singer with a happy home life, you won't get past the first audition. If you've got one leg, an ailing spouse and are living on a sink estate, you've hit the jackpot." [read the article]

“Latte is to coffee what Stock, Aitken and Waterman is to music,”
“Latte is to coffee what Stock, Aitken and Waterman is to music,” says Luciano Franchi, managing director of Caffè Vergnano 1882, a chain of three London coffee shops that has won awards for its quality. “A grown-up should not be drinking that much milk. Unless you understand the ratios of coffee you will never get the product as it should be — a 2oz cup for an espresso, 4oz cup for a cappuccino.” [read the coffee article]

2 Brave - Stop That Girl (TV-Performance)
This was norwegian pop music from the late 80's. It wasn't a Stock, Aitken & Waterman production, but I liked it very much. I think it's a wonderful song, probably it could be an evergreen.

‘rubbish’ says Waterman
But Pop Idol judge Pete Waterman poured scorn on the duo saying they were a forgettable flash in the pan destined to soon be forgotten.
As one third of production trio Stock, Aitken and Waterman, the pop guru helped launch the careers of Kylie Minogue, Rick Astley and Jason Donovan- hardly the least manufactured pop stars on the planet.

A new Stock, Aitken & Waterman production?
You can read it on Liverpool Echo:
Recording a music video - yesterday I did a video in Manchester for a song called Beautiful Dangerous People by a guy called Ellis. It’s being produced by Stock Aitken & Waterman and the choreographer for the day was Cheryl Cole’s, Beth Honan. It will be released after Christmas and the video is very James Bond - we were dressed as robots in silver catsuits and silver over-the-knee boots and it looked fantastic!
But... it's false! On Hit Factory Forum you can read about this topic. I don't like this new song and on Hit Factory Forum some of us didn't think it was a Stock, Aitken & Waterman production.
Mike Stock replies:
Hi Pete,
No, I know nothing about this stuff. It feels like someone trying to stir up a bit of media interest. I don't know if using our name really will help him, but I suppose its worth a try!
Kind regards, Mike.
