ITS AMAZING WHAT SPLITTING UP WITH A TART CAN DO FOR YOUR POP CAREER

Hard to believe there was a time when Saint Peter of Andre was known as a popstar. Back in 1996 , he and his admittedly wanktastic six pack scored two Number 1's with Flava and I Feel You.
And then like most of the pop class of 96 , obscurity beckoned. Since his appearance on 2004's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here , the media juggernaut of Peter Andre and Katie Price or Jordan to give the slag her real name have rarely been out of the papers. There were the awful reality shows , the cringey interviews . Quite simply the pair of them were one of the most grotesque couples in showbiz history. Admittedly the ratio of grotesque was emanating more from Jordan. She who seemed to wear the trousers. And little else.
Mysterious Girl finally made it to Number1 in 2004 at the expense of poor Jamelia. The follow up was of course , the Ivor Novello composition Insania , which somehow charted.

Now with the whirlwind of excessive publicity that comes with walking out on a marriage to everyones most loathed glamour girl , Peter Andre is relaunching his pop career. The peoples saint seems ike a nice guy etc. And god knows he must havehad the patience of a saint to marry that creature Price. But his whole comeback smacks of novelty. Nobody would've raise an eyebrow a year ago had Andre released a new single. But why should'nt he cash in on his new found popularity. New track Behind Closed Doors , with its accompanying video, is as expected all about Jordan. The voclas dont even sound like Andre. I'll be honest , I cant stand the track. And the thought of Andre making a comeback fills me with despair. The video was played hourly on The Box all day yesterday as if they were premiering some sort of long lost Michael Javkosn track.
The funny thing is , those that hate Jordan and have had Andre beatified will go out in their droves and send this hurtling to Number 1. Jordan will be seething obviously. If not Number 1 , then a definite Top 5 off the back of the mass coverage of the split.
His appearance as special guest at T4 On The Beach last weekend sent the crowd into a frenzy. Andre fell from the stage. It was the highlight of his short set. A shame that Andre was given exposure whilst Little Boots and VV Brown were ignored and left to play on the 4Music Stage.

Whether the newfound peoples champion Saint Peter of Andre can maintain any momentum to sustain a new pop career is questionable. But the whole Andre persona is cringeworthy and there are far more deserving pop acts who should be getting the type of airplay and support Andre and indeed Team Andre will be given over the next few weeks. Behind Closed Doors is the title of the track. But as we've seen throughout his shambolic , played out in public marriage , with Peter Andre , there were no closed doors. Or closed legs in Jordans's case. We saw and heard everything and we still are. As much as I hate Jordan , when and if this track hits the top spot , Jordan should be sent a bouquet of flowers and a magnum of champagne.
And the less said about the fllow up , Unconditional Love the better. Behind Closed Doors ? Somebody slam the door of Saint Petes pop comeback , for the sake of pop.
