More Hippie hypocracy..
SULTRY R'n'B star Joss Stone was left red-faced this week after it emerged she had asked staff to keep her car engine running while she did interviews at Live Earth Johannesburg.
The South African leg of the global concert to combat climate change had already run into trouble after poor ticket sales, which organisers blamed on the unusually cold weather.
Devon-born Stone was so chilly she allegedly asked her driver to keep the engine of her Mercedes bio-diesel limo running so the car stayed warm. It was quite a different story on the star's Myspace page, where she told fans: "We don't have to completely change how we live, we just have to be more thoughtful - simple things like turning off the lights when you leave a room, not leaving the tap running, recycling your rubbish, and, hey, if you've got a spare couple minutes, go plant a tree."
