Do you know any celebrities?

[FuckThatBullshit]

It's Sunday. I'm bored! Do you have any celebrity friends as in close enough to have them on Watsapp etc. Come on give us a clue, maybe some MNers will even be brave enough to tell us names!

A relative who has been on Pointless Celebrities. Made the head to head.

My very close friend's partner was a successful and well known musician in the late 90"s early noughties.

What do they do now? That's something I always wonder about

Yes, but I wouldn't call him a celebrity - just well know in the niche music industry.

Yes, I'm good friends with Fish from Marillion and we exchange messages weekly and chat

I realise most of you won't know who this is

My DP’s cousin was a member of one of the biggest pop bands in the U.K. in the early 90s!

Why not name them? You're not saying anything nasty?

A close friend was in a band that had a successful album in the late 90s followed by a string of erm much less successful ones. You'd probably have heard of the band but not her, though she was in Hello once. She made zero money but had a great time.

Yes. A few. But then I work in the entertainment industry.

Also, a good friends (not in the ents industry) husband was in a big 90s boy band.

Name change for obvious reasons..

I know a few (job related), for example - Orlando Bloom and Ron Pearlman would two I know best. I was friends with Heath Ledger too back in the day...

Anyone friends with Chesney Hawkes? He seems like a nice guy.

Yes, we’re good friends with a few Scottish actors.

Mind the ears Chesney Hawkes is lovely. Went to my school although he is a bit older. His brother Jodie also his drummer,was in my class. Alot of the tremeloes kids went to my school's.

Oh, that’s good to hear. He was in the radio earlier in the week and he sounded like a top bloke.

Yep. Several from different 90's indie bands and one other who is a very well known comedian

I used to fancy Fish back in the day 🤣

Yes. I know a few American actors, very famous but very normal, down to earth. One is the main character in a long running Netflix series.
Another was a more famous as a child actor but still does bits n pieces now.

What was he like? We rewatched the dark knight the other day and I’m still astounded at his acting. He was fab.

@iknowstuff Orlando bloom seems like a lovely and genuine guy but is he as La La Land as he comes across?

Can you all please name these big 90s bands your friends were in? Not asking for the names of the person!

Unfortunately, PPS who are being unnecessarily vague "Actor in a long running Netflix series"
You are making what could be a fun and interesting thread into a pointless one.

One of my closest buddies is Melanie Chisholm from the Spice girls.

I saw Marty Feldman in a bar in Brighton, but I wasn't able to catch his eye...

A friend of mine knows Damon from Brookside (Simon O’Brien) and says he’s not as friendly as you see him on TV. Quite aloof.

No.

@Justleaveitblankthen she was always my favourite! I hope she's as great as she seems ;)

I was a nanny for someone famous in politics in the 1980s.
