We've done the nasty, horrid ones, who would you be happy to go down the pub with?

I can now add SARAH HARDING to this list!

Cos I finally met her!

hohoholepew · 11/12/2009 21:45

Ahhh the stalking has paid off.

TheCrackFox · 11/12/2009 21:47

Did she issue a restraining order?

Well...spill, what is she like?

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 21:47

She's luverly.

hohoholepew · 11/12/2009 21:49

When you say 'met' was it across a courtroom?

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 21:51

Oh ho ho. My sides. No, it was at an event.

hohoholepew · 11/12/2009 21:52

Is she very skinny?

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 21:53

LOL cocole!
UQD did you dribble?

TheCrackFox · 11/12/2009 21:53

That is nice that she was still likeable. Very often is is disappointing to meet Slebs. I used to work in an uber trendy hotel (10 years ago) and was often surprised at which ones were tossers and which ones were lovely.

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 21:56

She was smaller and slighter than I had anticipated.

It's odd - in the GA publicity shots she looks the tallest - here I know that could be heels, but then they all have heels.

But her dazzling blue eyes and amazing smile are absolutely electric. And she made time for everyone there and spoke to people nicely.

I have met Van Der Saar (sp?) from Man Utd and he is a very nice man. You wouldn't guess he was a celeb at all - very unassuming.

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 21:57

What was the event? Stalkers anonymous?

TheCrackFox · 11/12/2009 22:00

How tall do you think she is?

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 22:01

5'7" maybe?...

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 22:01

I'd say 5'4''. How tall are you UQD?

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 22:02

I'm hopeless at judging heights actually. I'm 5'10".

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 22:02

5' 7''? That's tall!

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 22:03

Maybe not, then. I don't know! Not Kyle-pint-size but not a strapping Amazon.

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 22:03

Kylie that should say.

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 22:06

Well I've just googled her (as I'm sure you have UQD ) and she's 5'6''. But get this she weighs 7 stone 7. That is so underweight.
Did she look skinny?

PavlovtheForgetfulCat · 11/12/2009 22:06

Have not read through, but...

Jools Holland. He was in a pub once at the same time as me, as a result of some sound studio being opened where a boyfriend of mine was a student and he was there to do with that.

He was at the bar next to me and he said hello to me. He was a really down to earth bloke who then went and circulated once he got a drink from the bar along with everyone else, and seemed to just talk to anyone and everyone and seemed like a normal nice friendly bloke.

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 22:07

I have heard tales of his friendliness in RL also. He is my unlikely celeb crush.

Bruce Springsteen! I was staying in the same hotel........met him a couple of times that weekend.....one of the times he was saying night to his son, getting into the lift I was in.....

Quote:

Bruce: "night son"
Son: "night dad, do you want me to come to the bar with you"
Bruce: "no, I'll be up in a minute, I'm just gona say a quick hello to everyone"
Son: "ok, love you dad"
Bruce: "love you too" then turned to us and said, so proudly, "that's my little boy" (son = about 18yrs)

I LOVE Bruce

cornsilklikeshumous · 11/12/2009 22:09

AW!!!

UnquietDad · 11/12/2009 22:09

Hell, he coulda taken Bruce Jr. to the bar!
