Bush (Republican), the UK Prime Minister was Tony Blair (Labour), Pope St John Paul II was leading the Catholic Church. In that special week of March people in US were listening to Butterfly by Crazy Town. In UK Whole Again by Atomic Kitten was in the top 5 hits. Blow, directed by Ted Demme, was one of the most viewed movies released in 2001 while Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser was one of the best selling books. On TV people were watching Texas Justice.
