Toe B Aspire in Spandex, Celeb Gossip Part 2

[iSayaPrayer]

Do we have anything else to add?

Ph looks nothing like JH the only thing they have physically in common is red hair but ,Charles Spencer has red hair ,regarding Pixie Geldof ,I went down a bit of a rabbit hole earlier with the Geldofs and Paula Yates etc apparently Paula had a long on off affair for many years with Michael Hutchence years before it was official.,she first met him in 1984 apparently ....

Oh! My former housemate used to work in an agency and represented a blonde presenter who likes to keep dancing. She was apparently known for docking 10 years off her real age.

Aaah found you all! So happy this thread lives on!

In response to the previous thread- yes Lynn Perrie (Ivy Tilsley from Coronation Street) licked a male stripper's nob on late night TV.

I saw it and I wish I hadn't.

PH looks incredibly like PC at times so i dont believe he is JH son.

@cravingmilkshake. I think towelling refers to Terry towelling.

Mark Speight and his GF dieing..
Was shocked at how she died. Kept hoping he would be found safe but not to be... 😔 😔 😔 😔 😔

Many news articles shocked me; Diana, all the popstars popping off too soon, always a conspiracy theory surrounding them, when the reality is very sad, its drugs, loneliness and no true friends around them. IMHO

I lived in an area with many actors/popstars etc and The Frosty one never helped in the local community - wouldnt open anything for schools. No security or anything, lived his life and didnt really mix with 'us' at all. Whereas some others you would see out and about, always said hello, let the kids have autographs/pics etc and were very nice.

Mark Speight was so tragic: that poor couple. A lot of MNers with late teen DC will remember those events vividly.

After Ant was found guilty of drink driving, he gave an interview saying that he has found out that he has ADHD. I wonder why it’s never been mentioned since and why he’s chosen not to create more awareness around a condition which caused him such distressed when it was undiagnosed?

Placemarking and catching up!

Elderflower14 my DH is a police officer and attended both deaths. Very tragic

Remember Tess Daly's husband (Vernon Kay) cheating on her? He's such a knob, I wonder why she has stuck with him.

Someone on here once wrote that they were at a party at the house of a certain chilly member of the Primrose Hill set when the aforementioned footballer and another well known footballer (think towelling) arrived. Both men promptly disappeared into the bedroom with the hostess!

I'm almost embarrassed to say, but I don't know who the footballers are?

It's not exactly gossip but Diana's death was probably the most shocking piece of celebrity news I've ever heard. It's hard to comprehend the extent of her celebrity if you weren't around in the 80s and early 90s. Even in this age of social media and 24/7 news coverage there isn't really anyone who gets the attention she did.

@QueenOfTheAndals Agreed. I'd not seen anything like it before or since, even with social media.

I remember exactly where I was when I heard she had died, I think most people do. I wouldn't say I was a particular fan but it was all very shocking and the weeks following her death were so odd.

Pmk - love these threads. I remember the last round of them, didn't it achieve 4 threads? Was disappointed when they were pulled.

So do I @SpiderCharlotte, I even remember exactly what I was wearing! I lived overseas and the news had an enormous impact there so I can only imagine how it must've been here.

A short Tale on how this thread has ruined my brain

I was pursuing a high brow website the daily fail and happened upon a story about Caroline Flack being coy with her hand, because rumours have it that she is engaged.

As one does, I scrolled to the comments and read the top comment:

‘She’s been engaged more times than BT’

BT? BT? My brain begins to whirl, Brain Tango, Britney Tomato, BT?

Ding...

British fucking telecoms

I don't remember Mark Speight or may be I vaguely do but my oldest is nearly 13 so he wouldn't really have been in my radar at time ,tragic though

I don’t understand the chilly primrose hill??!

Reading this on the bus made me miss my stop

Quick PMK

Princess Chilly Primerose.

There is lots of weather that makes it chilly. Snow, wind, Frost.

I don’t know the footballers though.

I think.morbid the footballers has been mentioned a lot on this thread and is a Brand? And the other towelling one first name begins with J and I think he played for Chelsea ?
