A civil servant is being prosecuted for writing a lurid blog fantasising about the torture, mutilation and murder of Girls Aloud.
Darryn Walker, 35, posted the 12-page article titled Girls (Scream) Aloud on a fantasy porn website last August.
Internet Watch Foundation claims the blog about group members Cheryl Cole, Sarah Harding, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts was obscene.
The test case is the most significant on censorship since Penguin Books was unsuccessfully sued in 1960 over DH Lawrence's novel Lady Chatterley's Lover.
It was brought by Scotland Yard's Obscene Publications Unit after consultation with prosecutors. Police said it was an "unusual" case.
Walker, of South Shields, entered no plea at a hearing before South Tyneside magistrates.
He has been bailed to appear before Newcastle crown court later this month.
