Deaf mum sues Little Mix promoter in sign language row.

Her solicitor Chris Fry, managing partner of Fry Law, believes the action shines a light on a wider point.

"People with sensory impairment actually want to attend musical and sporting events just as anybody else does," he says.

I actually rather like the idea of the sign-language person coming up on the big screen at Villa Park while the Holte End belts out My Old Man.

It's better than being inspired by dying cats like the Cocteau Twins were.

Ant jinxed them.

"Singer Mariah Carey chose this week to speak for the first time about her 17-year battle with bipolar disorder and the "positive people" who have helped her "get back to doing what I love".

"Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me," she told People. "It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn't do that anymore."

I bet they were.

Dr Drai, a TV gynaecologist, says he doesn't want to be linked to the rapper as his lyrics are "offensive" to women he works with.

Dr Drai wrote:Published in the documents, the gynaecologist added: "I cannot be associated with anyone that has any kind of misogynistic speech because it's a bad reflection on me as a doctor. It's bad enough dealing with cunts all day."
