Dinner with a-list celebs, I am so not ready...

[25kilopumpkin]

My job, at times, can propel me into strange circumstances. I have just learnt that it is very likely i will be "spending the night" in the London home of a v famous celeb couple... I am not cool, have nothing to wear, and easily impressed... WTF do I do now?

OP said that work wouldn't be bothered though.

We are all saying its Johnny Depp but, why would Johnny have a huge mansion here? I can't imagine him lording it up. I think it was a borrowed house Or, it was Chris Martin, he wears nail varnish

you're a wee bit obsessive-y, aren't ya, kittya? get back to your Liz Jones threads and leave this poor woman alone...

Just try not to do a poo in their toilet.

Major Faux Pas, that would be.

I'm not hassling anyone.

'poo in their toilet'. God, that thread was .

I'm sure it's Johnny. He's been here filming, hasn't he?

I'm intrigued!

I read an article in the paper where the journo was driven to a secret mansion and it was where johnny depp was staying while he promotes his film in London.

I think the event was as winkle says a publicity junket. 25 journos turn up half interview him that day, evening soiree with mini yorkshire puds then everyone stays over and the other half interview him the next day. Makes sure the media have a lovely time and are more likely to write nice things.

I thought earlier in the thread that 25s job was to time the interviews and sling the journos out when their time was up. so she is effectively his protector from the journos nosey questions and ensures everything goes smoothly. She would need a watch but not a synchronised one. Unless it was to ensure the journos in the waiting room came up precisely when the last one had finished so none of JDs precious time was wasted?

But where does the "pro bono" work fit into that, and how much training do you need to be moving journos in and out of rooms (a runner usually does stuff like that). OP also said she had to travel lots and the work could be depressing. And that there weren't many people with her skillset.

I bet he slept in the shed

And no-one would invite 25 journalists to stay the night at their house. I just can't picture that. He's in London, not the back of beyond. It has to be because something was going to happen overnight - woo woo music...

I say exorcist.

Im telling you all. My money is on a a bunch of medium to prove spooky activities n a scientist to disprove, and provide scientific evidence. That would explain
lots of people
sleepover
food
watches to record time of events
security for verification
in a slebs house

Case solved hee hee

The OP said it wasn't anything 'woo' though ...
I like shoppingbag's suggestion that she fits slebs with prosthetics.

Didn't the OP just come back on and tell us

Would fitting prosthetics be classed as "dangerous" though? I thought maybe some kind of 'regression' therapy, although admittedly that is very woo and not really about security.

Oh, could she be some kind of stunt trainer? She did mention the celeb doing what he was told to do, and that could cover the dangerous element as well.

Not sure how the natural aptitude aspect would apply - although, thinking about it, I suppose anyone can train in martial arts/jumping out of windows etc, but to become so skilled and successful as to make it into a career you'd have to have some degree of innate ability.

wildstrawberry, did she?!?! [dim emoticon]

CamperFan, good point. Don't think it's regression therapy though ? as you say, it's a little bit woo ...

Neurolinguistic programming? Although I don't know if you really need to have a natural ability to do that.

I think its simply promotion. He's everywhere at the moment because of this new film infact, I'm almost sick of the sight of him. Almost

Actually, theres just been something on the radio that Johnny Depp is in this weeks episode of that awful Ricky Gervais's comedy about dwarves (Rickys words, not mine) so, Im wondering if its something to do with that? stunts? filming? I reckon they are linked.

Will have to watch it now and, I never really fancied it.

Late to the party again but think I have worked out what 25 does...

human lie detector!?!

Would explain training and a natural flair and would be security based too (think Tim Roth in 'Lie To Me')

I've got it... it's sting.

lots of kids, very into weridy beardy stuff.

Did he explain how to do the tantric sex as if so please share, as i find it a bit dull!

NeedToSleep, by Jove you've got it!

Barefeete, maybe op is a tantric sex instructor?!

Eurgh, Sting, Trudie, tantric sex. The thought makes me want to vomit.
