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.

Fuck.

EldritchCleavage · 17/08/2010 12:33

Bound to be very obscure-we keep thinking up lead singers and the like, but it's more likely to be the keyboard player from Level 42 or the bassist from Haircut 100 or something. i.e. yes, he made money, but he's dull and nondescript and his name won't ring any bells.

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 12:33

ooooh hold on

Billy Bragg?

The drummer from the Wurtzels.

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 12:36

[comes back]

Bill Wyman

the clue is in the lyrics to his fab early 80's smash "Je suis un rock star"

(iirc) "j'avais une residence
je habite la
in la south de France"

It's not Bryan Ferry - he's going out with my mother-in-laws neighbours 28 year old daughter (tenuous link to fame...)

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 12:39

isn't Bryan Ferry a proper tory squire type these days?

...or am I thinking of Jeremy Irons?

coolma · 17/08/2010 12:43

Bryan ferry is quite fat and old looking sadly:(

JaxTellersOldLady · 17/08/2010 12:45

whoever it is they have to be seriously rich, not just pop star, but rock star rich!!!

Bill Wyman... hmm possibly. I am going to do some digging as I am curious nosy cow and ask around the old skool rockers/actors

I do like her house, it is beautiful, could happily live there with my lot.

Grin

Mick hucknall?

Ooh ooh

PHIL COLLINS

coolma · 17/08/2010 12:49

Now listen sensibly - Phil is well over 50, and Mick is 50 at least, Bryan and Bill are in their sixties. We want a 47 year old!

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 12:51

he won't really be 47 coolma

I believe she sometimes uses poetic licence

[cough cough]

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 12:53

is Hucknall really 50?? good Lord it seems like only yesterday

Shock

[faints]

grumpypants · 17/08/2010 12:54

a bay city roller? a bee gee ? one of those tiger feet ones?

EldritchCleavage · 17/08/2010 12:56

The very funny-looking one from Slade?

semicolon · 17/08/2010 12:58

Hmmm

Tony Hadley?

Nick Rhodes?

Mick Jones?

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 13:01

one of the Rubettes

PawMum · 17/08/2010 13:07

it is apparently rick astley

SpringHeeledJack · 17/08/2010 13:09

what- reeeeeeally?

eaudevie · 17/08/2010 13:13

it is apparently rick astley

No. Shock

Really?

Rick Astley

Oh wait, is this a Rickroll? Grin

Indaba · 17/08/2010 13:18

I think we're hunting for someone very, very hard of hearing Wink

InThisSequinBraYesYouOlaJordan · 17/08/2010 13:21

I can't believe that that is the house. My bf bought me Liz's diary as a sort of ironic birthday present (we both howl over her diaries) and that is NOT how she describes it.

Daltrey was my first thought, although he is quite a bit older than that. Although surely she must be disguising him in some way, surely she has SOME respect for his privacy?

MollieO · 17/08/2010 13:24

Why would they have to be hard of hearing - because of Rick's singing or because of Liz's whinging? Sounds like a match made in heaven Grin.

oneofsuesylvesterscheerios · 17/08/2010 14:05

somebody disgusterous like Rick Wakeman? He is v.v.rich and has property in the Isle of man.

It is not Rick Astley so stop your dirty talk and wash you mouth out.

someone from UB40? that's the right age group isn't it?

Daltrey is too old but he does have a liking for old trout.
