I watching Liverpool on the telly the other night, they were playing Marseilles in the Champions League. I was in Marseilles for a Liverpool match a few years ago (the French team won 2-1) but i was blown away by the attitude of the fans, who were really friendly and incredibly noisy in the stadium. At halftime they played poppy French hip-hop and the whole stand jumped up and down, it was brilliant. There was one song that they were all really going nuts for and I asked someone what it was. He told me is was “Diam’s”

Diam’s is a classic tough lass from the suburbs with cropped hair and mad jewelstudded hoopy earrings…she looks well hard. She’s also gone up against Le Pen and Sarkozy in the papers. Definitely a bit of a character. I like the idea in this video as well.
