I need to get out this evening, either that or I need to disappear into the bedroom. For if I don’t make myself scarce this evening, I will be subjected to two of the worst things to hit humanity since time began.

Tonight Holly is having a few friends round. I don’t have a problem with that, I quite like her friends. However, tonight, Holly is hosting a “Sing Star Night”. This is where they all come round, gossip for a bit and then outcomes this game called Sing Star.

For those of you who don’t know, Sing Star is a game on the Playstation. You have these microphones that you plug in and you sing along to your favourite pop hits. It is the one game where you can’t say “can you turn the volume down a bit?”. Holly has all, but two, of the Sing Star games.

The first Sing Star game that she doesn’t have, is the Bollywood edition, and to be honest, I can’t see Holly getting this. However, the other game she doesn’t have is, I’m afraid to say, right up her street… And tonight, her friend Joanna, is bringing it round so they can all belt it out.

The Sing Star game I am referring to is…… the High School Musical edition.

I really don’t get High School Musical. I just don’t understand what the big deal is about. It’s just a bunch of impossibly cute American kids singing their hearts out, about what to do with their lives - stage a musical or play basket ball – wow, what a tough choice – must be hard being a teenager these days!

Plotwise, that is it! Well, as far as the first one is concerned, I can’t be bothered with the second, I suspect it’s more of the same.

Thing is, I read on empire online (the film magazine), that a third film is now in production. Why? Didn’t they say (or sing, rather) all they needed to in the first two films? Where can they go with the plot?

Personally, now these kids are reaching their senior years, I am hoping that this third film is the “break down” years, where they sing about knife crime, gang culture and going to rehab. Imagine that, Zac Efron singing about going straight while going through cold turkey. It could be like a musical version of Trainspotting. And it would be giving a good message to the kids - "don’t do drugs or you’ll end up like Zac".

Sadly, I can’t see this happening and I suspect Disney will settle for something a little more heart warming. They’ve gotta keep shifting on those pencil cases and toys after all.

Anyway, yeah, as I was saying – I need to escape all this before they force me to sing "Get Your Head In The Game". Think I might disappear to the bedroom and watch the original Dawn of the Dead.
