The Independent on Sara Cox’ sacking:
“The rejection of Cox’s brash style marks the demise of the ladette culture that emerged in the mid-Nineties.
Television and music stars such as Denise Van Outen, Zoe Ball, Gail Porter and Nicole Appleton embraced the tomboy image of hard drinking and hard partying, setting a trend that was followed by young women around the country.”
I get really irritated when lazy journalists write stories like this. Do they really think hundreds of women adopt entirely new lifestyles after reading Heat?
