Oh dear. Someone is a bit petulant and pampered. Cue video message from daddy telling him to "rock it" with an air kiss to send him on his way..... Bleurgh! He was rude to the woman interviewing him as well.

It is pretty obvious he has only got this far because of who his dad is. His singing was awful!

Wretched · 02/04/2012 09:29

Someone agree with me dammit Angry

Well what a charismatic fellow Grin
No talent either, I'm sure there are much more talented artists out there.

Wretched · 02/04/2012 09:34

He would be better suited following in mamma's footsteps... Chewy old sausage flogging.

That was so dreadful I do not know where to start.

He had the charisma of cold congealing porridge, and sounded utterly shite.

He reminded me of the character in the wheelchair off Little Britain.

SweetBabyJebus · 02/04/2012 09:34

Good god, wanted to start a thread too! Talk about lack of charisma! He looked so uninterested and bored by the whole thing. Why bother?! Crack a smile maybe? Miserable git!

Sirzy · 02/04/2012 09:34

Lol squeaky!

Gin30 · 02/04/2012 09:35

I was going to watch it but forgot. Doesn't surprise me though. I used to live in a town near to them. I remember years and years ago there was breaking news on the local radio that he had been airlifted to hospital. It turned out he'd hurt his toe or something :o

Wretched · 02/04/2012 09:37

"so James how are you going to conquer the expectations due to your heritage?"

"just by doing it"

Right.

Seen the clip now. His music is going to be a bit miserable as he said his influences include Nirvana, The Cure and Radiohead. The song is pretty bad and his singing voice is not the best in the world. He didn't come across too well here, but I've never seen him come across too well before. I love The Beatles and Paul McCartney, but maybe James should leave the music to his father and just play music as a hobby and not have us hear it on tv.

CroissantNeuf · 02/04/2012 10:52

I didn't see it but maybe the miserable, sour-faced, non-smiling look runs in the family?

I mean, has anyone ever seen Stella smile?

chipstick10 · 02/04/2012 11:28

Stella looks a complete pain in the arse ive always thought. She looks sour and flash. Cant stand Macca, with his naff dyed hair, denim jackets and thumb raising. I didnt see his son on Daybreak, saw him standing waiting to sing but forgot to watch as i turned over to Frasier. I remember thinking, oh dear hes got the same sour look as his sister, as though he was thinking "why am i flogging my music on Daybreak, im the son of a Beatle". The whole family are charmless as far as im concerned and both stella and her bro look like they need directing toward a shower for a bloody good wash.

mummylin2495 · 02/04/2012 11:49

I thought he looked a right misery guts,i wonder how he would look if he had not had all the pampering and finance behind him from his famous dad.Didnt like the song or the singing either

Gemtubbs · 02/04/2012 12:00

Mary McCartney seems like a nice lady. V grounded.

MaryAnnSingleton · 02/04/2012 12:03

ooh,is there a link ? I've always thought him a miserable looking sod,Stella too.

NunOnTheRun · 02/04/2012 22:06

player.stv.tv/programmes/lorraine/2012-04-02-0830/ See: Part III at five mins forty seconds in.. ......... Not sure whether Mini-Macca is chronically shy - or not. But I have no doubt that Dad's 'good luck clip' is one almighty cringe Blush

Mary aside, the whole lot of them are like up-market shameless extras.

SamuelWestsMistress · 02/04/2012 22:10

I've heard numerous stories about him being a pompous little spoilt toad. Very "Don't you know who my papa is?!?"

Could of course be a load of shit, but I doubt he'd have been on Daybreak if it weren't for his dad being in control of the entire music industry with his little pinky.

Wonder if he'll get through as many wives?

Mayisout · 02/04/2012 22:14

Poor bloke.

Dad's music wasn't that great (other beatles were better) but at least he was good looking at that age.
