He really does love his kids

He just told BBC Breakfast all about it.

And his dad.

And his appalling new album.

Can't we use anti-terror laws to stop him releasing shite music?

Mr Andre you are charged with inciting a normally rage-free ish mother of 2, to consider kicking innocent passers-by.

His punishment: not allowed within 80 miles of a recording studio (music or tv) and any gurning (a large Strictly) will result in immediate expulsion to a desert island.

Don't tell me IBU. I'm not.

Was just watching and had to leave the room. He is awful. So disingenuous.

ALickAndAPromise · 16/10/2015 08:57

Strictly seem to bill him as their 'big' name of the series. Don't get it at all. He'd sell his granny to get on it, he's no great coup. Confused

I watched most of the interview, for reasons that now escape me. I sneered all the way through.

My god that man is so smug and like you say, disingenuous.

I changed channel when he was on and, damn me, they were talking about him on the other side as well!

He's got dirt on people. He must have. It's the only possible explanation for the TV companies fawning all over him.

I agree - he's an awful narcissistic little twat isn't he?

He made an appearance at a shopping centre near me. I don't think many people went as looking at the pictures in the paper there were more staff than fans.

AnyoneButAndre · 16/10/2015 09:03

You are, of course, entirely correct.

My DD made me take her to see him switch our Xmas lights on a few years ago.

I went with the belief that seeing him in person would change my mind about him.....nope, just compounded my belief that he is in fact - an awful narcissistic little twat Grin

He reminds me a lot of Tom Cruise. He's another one.

Pooseyfrumpture · 16/10/2015 09:09

I thought that judge really took him down, called him a "an extremely unsatisfactory witness" - even the Daily Mail said "On some issues, Andre's evidence was 'not truthful' and some of his allegations were 'a complete fabrication', the judge said."

And yet, he still keeps on. Go figure Hmm

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 16/10/2015 09:10

I'm not a violent person, but I would love to slap his smug little face.

His wife seems like an intelligent girl, what on earth does she see in him? Her parents must be gutted she married him...... At least he loves his children.

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 16/10/2015 09:11

I wish the BBC reporters had brought his trial up, just to see his rictus smile waver.

He's just so pointless.

And all these women who think he's gorgeous. I mean. Have they never seen another man? A non-slimy non-cheeseball?

Verypissedoffwife · 16/10/2015 09:13

frank I'd like to see him slide tackled and land on his arse. Or kicked in the arse like Bishop Brennan in Father Ted.

HairsprayQueen · 16/10/2015 10:01

Sounds like the same interview as the One Show the other day. The other guest was Nick Knowles. i commented to DH that it was mumsnet's sofa of hell!

Sparklingbrook · 16/10/2015 10:05

I missed it. Sad but I can imagine.

Has he done Loose Women yet?

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 16/10/2015 10:14

I'm not normally so invested in a "celeb" but he needs to get his orange face off my tv.
I cannot believe that money from the TV licence is going to pay for his lifestyle.

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 16/10/2015 10:15

Brian, I can't stop laughing at your anti-terror law comment about his music....

IHaveBrilloHair · 16/10/2015 10:20

His costume on Strictly last week was quite terrifying, I just watch in the hope of getting a close up of Carby Claire in the audience tucking into her bag o mash.

Actually I rescind the 2nd part of my punishment, he would love being stuck on a desert island. He'd stand, waist deep in the sea, and sing.

What trial?? I have missed a chunk of seleb life.

He seems fake to me (I made this sweeping assumption watching Through the Keyhole the other week so I must be right. It was a serious documentation of his life and lasted 10mins too long)

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 16/10/2015 16:19

I particularly like how he claims not to be a liar..... Liar

NoArmaniNoPunani · 16/10/2015 16:25

I missed it too.

The mystery of his appeal on Strictly was solved in a conversation with my mum, who loves him. It's grannies in their 60's who haven't felt the touch of a man in 15 years who are keeping him in.
