Poll: The biggest story of 2008 so far?

As July kicked off with a day of gloriously sunshine over Fametastic Towers, we’ve reached the halfway point in 2008 so it’s a good time to ask: what do you think the biggest story has been so far this year?

In terms of our statistics, Miley Cyrus‘ Vanity Fair photo scandal has been the biggest but that might be about demographics and, in some rather worrying sections, the thought of seeing a 15 year old girl without many clothes on - so website stats possibly aren’t the best indicator.

So what do you think has been the biggest gossip issue of 2008?

Our contenders:

• Britney Spears‘ custody dispute, hospitalisations and conservatorship
• Amy Winehouse’s smoking crack video and subsequent rehab
• Heath Ledger’s untimely death
• Ashley Cole cheating on Cheryl Cole (and her return to him)
• Paul McCartney & Heather Mills‘ divorce trial and settlement
• Miley Cyrus and the Vanity Fair pictures
• Coleen McLoughlin & Wayne Rooney’s wedding
• Sex and the City : The Movie (not really a story but huge recurring theme over the last six months)

VOTE AWAY!

(The poll will stay up for about two weeks if you want a bit of time to think about it!)
