She doesn't offend me or make me angry at any other time apart from having a fling with David Bowie Envy but when I hear that "Weeellllllllllllll" shriek I want to throw bricks at the telly/radio.

AIBU or just grumpy?

I can't bear it either. Nothing more grating.

Just the thought of her botoxed to within an inch of becoming Bakelite face makes me want a gin and a brick!

She's firmly on the Titanic list with Twiggy and the Loose Women

oh Cilla is annoying. Especially that awful version of "Alfie" with her hideous shrill delivery. Cilla can't really sing - she's more of a belter. Not a good feature when trying to delivery a poignant song like that.

David Bowie and Howard from Take That? Is no man safe?

Seeing the title of this thread was enough to conjure an image of looking through the crosshairs of a telescopic rifle at her before pulling the trigger.

I thought it was Jason Orange she used.

Am I cracked or does she imply in this interview that she was on stage with Kylie Minogue when she (Lulu) was at the beginning of her career?

bogeyface · 18/05/2012 00:42

Weeeeelllllllll

You know you make me wanna die
Cut my hands off

Latara · 18/05/2012 00:52

bogeyface - so true!
OP - YANBU - Lulu is one irritating woman!

Whenever I go on the Daily Mail Website (not often I was looking at Sacha Baron Cohen's v funny film promotions) there are women of a certain age who must be botoxed and surgically enhanced - which is ok if they want to - but stupid comments saying so and so looks great! Well we'd all look great if we spent vast sums on improvements FGS. This time it was Emma Thompson, last time I saw a photo of her she looked v rough, now she has no wrinkles and gleaming white teeth. Likewise Lulu, several years back she was making a comeback and being interviewed about her bombshell skin treatment, well her face looked ok but her arms and hands looked 70years old. Now all is surgically enhanced so she looks better but what else is her claim to fame?
Ok, I spose it's jealousy but PLEASE plebs, if a celeb looks great just admire her surgeon, not how good she looks for her age.

bogeyface · 18/05/2012 01:32

Unless she is Jennifer Saunders. She is just stunning and I want to look like her when I grow up :)

Mayisout · 18/05/2012 02:35

Also the reason they are always grinning from ear to ear is because it hides the marionette lines at the sides of their mouths. Twiggy is a great example of this, do you ever see recent photos of her not smiling from ear to ear.... just saying Grin

bettybat · 18/05/2012 06:30

Thank god for this thread, it's like scream therapy. I thought I was the only one to have murderous thoughts upon hearing the first half syllable!

Though I am shocked and appalled and now feel a bit dirty about David Bowie. Not David, please...say it isn't so?!

wildfig · 18/05/2012 08:35

But it's like one of those classic deals with the devil. 'Now then, Lulu. You can be famous for the next fifty years and shag boybands and have your own lucrative skincare line on QVC! But... you have to do this ridiculous and annoying yodel every other day for the rest of your life! Mwah ha ha ha ha! Deal or no deal?'

piratecat · 18/05/2012 21:02

oh god, she's on Piers Morgan arghhhhhhhhhhh turn over turn over

Lazydaisy55 · 18/05/2012 23:08

I hate the way she switches into her long forgotten Scottish accent, and the way she recites her name. Feel I'll at the thought of her anywhere near Bowie!!!!!!

Lazydaisy55 · 18/05/2012 23:09

iPad correction, meant ill , not I'll

LineRunner · 18/05/2012 23:10

No-one really likes her. She comes across as a taker.

bogeyface · 18/05/2012 23:12

Talking of forgotten accents, anyone else HATE the fact that CZJ does US speak when she is in America but suddenly remembers to be Welsh when she is speaking to a British audience/interviewer?

LineRunner · 18/05/2012 23:47

I know people like that at work who switch accents for the (perceived) audience. I'm not always sure it does them any favours.

manicbmc · 18/05/2012 23:54

I used to like the light-hearted piss taking of Lulu on Ab Fab Grin

theinets · 19/05/2012 06:48

I used to go to the same gym as lulu. She was a delight and a really warm person or seemed so. She works out t a lot. Can't say I ever nticed surgery she looks pretty natural to me. People are very bitchy on this thread if you ask me.
