Royal PC ‘traded porn at palace’

Another story from the BBC:

An ex-royal protection officer accused of a £3m betting and property scam has claimed colleagues played poker and traded porn while at Buckingham Palace.

Paul Page, who allegedly cheated investors out of life savings, made the claims while giving evidence in his defence at Southwark Crown Court.

Mr Page, 38, of Grays, Essex, denies fraudulent trading and intimidation.

He is accused of taking from colleagues and others to set up a false investment scheme to finance a life of luxury.

Lady GaGa draws aces on US charts

Another story from the BBC:

Pop star Lady GaGa has become the only artist in nearly a decade to top the US charts with her first two singles.

Poker Face, the second release from her electro-pop debut album The Fame, climbed to number one this week after 15 weeks on release.

Her first single, Just Dance had the same success - and both tracks have also topped the UK singles chart.

The last artist to manage the feat was Christina Aguilera with Genie in a Bottle and What a Girl Wants.
