Signing out of
Yahoo! Canada is always an exciting time. 'What will
Yahoo! Canada's homepage's errors be this time? Will I have enough will and determination to post them all? When will my legs feel okay after doing the Grouse Grind this morning?' Before leaving to do the Grind, I captured the above image. In the purple box on the right side, the text says, "Winner forced to sing jingles" (note the singular
winner), while under the main photo the text says "
Idol winners' cringe-worthy gig". The singular has become plural, as the apostrophe should have gone *before* the S for it to remain singular. Right below that, however, it's back to singular with "Host forces star" and not
stars. The photo is of just one individual - and two out of three times the text was singular - so I am pretty sure it is supposed to be singular, but just to be safe I click the link to be 100% sure.
Yup, one single winner: Kris Allen. However, the
Yahoo! Canada Music article,
"Kris Allen's Commercial Appeal, Alexa Chung's Commercial Flop" - which includes an embedded video of the gig - has its very own error. As
the commercial jingle makes clear, the bologna's second name is M-A-Y-E-R.
