as to the identity of Liz Jones mystery rock star lover? Apologies if I am repeating a thread but just read today's 'wingefest' and can't believe its anything other than a work of fiction.

OP posts:
kittya · 26/11/2010 09:42

her own generation? how old is she exactly? nearly 50?

So, I would guess early 80's, late 70's.

Johnny Lydon? he did wear odd clothes.

Sting fits the criteria but he is happily married, although they say its an open relationship.

No RS worth his salt would touch her with a barge-pole, unless he's not a DM reader!! anyone sane would not want their lives read about in a weekly rag.

Unless it is the kind of RS who would do CBB or, Im a celebrity. Boy George?? (joking!!) but maybe its someone from a band of that ilk. Did she say he was a singer?

Someone from Status Quo would be more like it!!

I found this thread by chance but I am DYING to know who it is. I just have this horrible feeling that she is making it up because it's a small world and some journo somewhere would know and then it would get out, surely. I want it to be true, if there is hope for her there is hope for us all. But she is also such a weirdo that I can't help but feel she is totally manipulating us and that the reveal will be that she made it up cos no one loves her etc etc.

kittya · 26/11/2010 10:17

god, I hope not!! I wonder if she reads these kinds of threads? probably.

You are right though, it is a small world she moves in and someone wouldve grassed her up by now.

He probably isnt a real life rockstar, just some drummer in a tribute band!

can you imagine her dealing with groupies?

VivaLeBeaver · 26/11/2010 19:32

Alice Cooper?

VivaLeBeaver · 26/11/2010 19:35

Apparantly Suggs has a home in Italy.

mumtoted · 26/11/2010 20:42

How about Paul Young?

KatieScarlett2833 · 26/11/2010 20:43

No

saorachd · 26/11/2010 22:16

He might not be a British rock star.

PrincessRollo · 26/11/2010 23:43

Russel Mael! Brilliant. Two black haired, pursed lipped, mad eyed staring bi*tches get together.

Anyway...

How about Bez?

PrincessRollo · 26/11/2010 23:44

Non brit?

Jean Michelle Jarre

PrincessRollo · 26/11/2010 23:46

Sorry to add another post...but I bet SHE does read this page. Someone as self obsessed must google her own name all the time.

kittya · 27/11/2010 09:07

I thought he had a farm here? that would make him more likely to be British. It cant be Suggs as hes touring like mad at the mo and, still happily married from what I hear.

It will be some Z-lister.

Are we sure he is a singer?

saorachd · 27/11/2010 09:39

So far, we know he is very skinny (which rules out Jim Kerr), minted as he owns hotels and farms so must have done well during his rock stardom (and the royalties), likes animals, has grey hair, possibly a late 70's early 80's heyday, is single/divorced(?) and actually sounds quite sweet.

He might be a guitarist or drummer.

I like Liz Jones.

kittya · 27/11/2010 09:47

he mustve wrote the songs if he is that loaded.

The chap on the keyboard with Yazoo?!! he was skinny!!

Howard Jones?

It could be anyone
Smile

where did she meet him? and, why does she fascinate me so much???

saorachd · 27/11/2010 10:04

I think she is fascinating and very eccentric but sounds like she had a bad deal with her previous men.

Right, a few more suggestions.

One of UB40. There were millions of them in the band. The Campbell brothers have plumped up a bit so not them.
One of the Kinks
Eric Stewart of 10 cc
Tommy Lee Grin

kittya · 27/11/2010 10:17

One of the kinks is a possibility.

I read about someone opening a hotel recently, I cant think who though!!

Mind you, it could be a wild goose chase. She maybe twisting the truth abit because, if he has any sense, he wouldnt want revealing to the nation.

saorachd · 27/11/2010 10:33

Robert Plant also fits all the criteria....

GreenButton · 27/11/2010 11:31

Howard Jones - he's a veggie (he once had a veggie restaurant in New York), so I would imagine he's the type to invest his money wisely, not to fritter it away, and I see on Wikipedia that he lives near Taunton, not a million miles away from Ms Jones...

ricketyrock · 27/11/2010 14:27

oh yes howard jones does look like how i imagine RS to look, with his odd aging rocker hair and everything

dracschick · 27/11/2010 14:41

Paul Mcartney?

kittya · 27/11/2010 17:14

I said Howard Jones earlier. Do you think we are on to something??

Im not changing my mind!!

Hardly a rockstar though.

saorachd · 27/11/2010 17:24

I am now firmly convinced.

I do get him mixed up with Thomas Dolby.

kittya · 27/11/2010 17:54

It came to me this morning and, I dont know anything about Howard Jones!!! I went from Yazoo to him.

Yep, I would say deffo.

Now, without googling lets try and think of his hits.

Wouldnt it be good???

I never liked him.

saorachd · 27/11/2010 17:59

The Very Best of Howard Jones Confused
