Welcome to our eighth prompt post.
As ususal, here are a few things to keep in mind:

"I once compared the men at the nexus of new Labour to a girl band: fiercely close but forever bitching at each other and threatening to split."
They worked as Gorillaz, but surely this one needs to be done, too? Girl band of auth-anon's choice.

Petra didn't look up from her hand-mirror. "Still at her Closer interview, I shouldn't wonder. You know she's never been less than twenty minutes late for anything."
Still pacing the room frustratedly, Toni snapped, "Well, can't we just start without her? You're here, I'm here, Gina's here - just about..." She glared at the brunette, who was hunched over a magazine. "Honestly, Gina, you think you're so fucking intellectual, don't you?"
"So long as I'm on a higher level than you," retorted Gina shortly, pushing her thick hair behind her shoulders.
"Well, that's great," Toni fumed, pausing to stare at herself in a mirror. "This is off to a really good start. One of us isn't even on time and you two are being a couple of bitches and I hate my life!" Picking up a pair of hair straighteners, she threw them into the corner and dropped angrily into a seat ( ... )

Warnings for: signs of serious disillusionment about NuLab policies and personalities.

So it looks like there isn't going to be a band reunion after all, campers. Well, at least not with any of the original line-up, though at the moment it's not even clear if the new lot still want to use the existing band name or not. Try not to cry. After all, we've now almost got the full set of dirty laundry, and one day Alison may stop teasing and give us her full, real, unexpurgated diaries. Regrettably, Gina's book looks like it actually will be, as announced, a study of recent trends in the music industry, and lacking in such tasty(ish) gossip and score-settling as we've become used to from the other three, let alone the various bits of entourage cashing in on the interest while it lasts. Still, in case you should be strapped for cash, we thought we'd do a quick recap ( ... )

Petra? Well, Pet's a clever little bitch, and we've got this kind of love-hate thing going, but she's a bit of a liability, too. Epic strops. And social climber? Don't get me started. And all the fretting about the media making her out to be evil - I said to her, you ( ... )
