Looks like Paloma's next single has been accidentally revealed:

"Despite admitting that she was 'cream crackered' from the Smoke & Mirrors video shoot the day before, the singer played up to her reputation for being one of pop's most colourful characters during her half hour-long set."

Im... pleased? It should have been Stargazer, but I guess I shall live with Smoke & Mirrors.

I love Billie piper too. Your the first person i have come across to admit they like her and of course not slag her off

A fifth single. I thought the era would be over but each time she releases a singles, her album shoots up the charts

Smokes & mirrors isn't a good choice but i do like it. Just not single material.

^ I agree, I do love Smoke & Mirrors, she opened with it when we went to see her in Southampton but its just not single material, I bet it will flop but the album will go back into the top 20, as always! I'm actually really looking forward to seeing the video for it.

Saw Paloma on BBC1 tonight singing with a member of the public (from the John Barrowman show). Amazing singer!

I like Paloma's 'Do You Want The Truth ...' album. Not a bad song on the album at all.

She's also on Twitter, so I'm looking foward to future news about a follow-up album as and when.

Just seen this on her Facebook page "I do read these sometimes! I am in LA working on album 2!"

Very excited! Possibly a January release after her tour, what do we think?

Wow! I love it. That now has to be one of my favourite videos from Paloma. I just love her. She's true talent and am glad her album has done really well.

Smoke and Mirrors has been C-Listed by Radio 1... which isn't bad for a last single from an album. I cant see it being top 40 however. The album may get a rise.

Smoke & Mirrors now B-Listed by BBC. And the album is climbing again on iTunes, at #26 at the moment. Really pleased for her. Oh and her tour kicks off soon!

I have had the album for a month or two and there is not a single track I don't like but the sheer fun of "Upside Down" is the stand out track for me. The girl has got so much talent, I hope she goes on to be a top singer although in my mind she already is. I look forward to her next offering.

Smoke & Mirrors isnt one of my favs- prefer BOTH Romance is Dead and Stargazer over that!

On a more positive note- going to see her in 3 weeks!
