Binge watching sex and the city thanks to a horrendous cold.

The jukes and mimi viewing between Miranda and Robert is hilariously cringeworthy but also v v funny...

When Michael Barrymore won an award at the NTA's. He refused to leave the stage after his speech, began serenading Trevor McDonald and then started to climb up the set. His career went down the pan shortly after this.

PaulAnka was on it a very long time ago, but haven't posted in more than a decade, so I've never posted the same there. Not since before the original founder sold it and it got coated in shit articles and adverts.

It's stuff like

"that's so gay" or "don't worry i'm not queer or anything"

Here's a link to the Friends thing :

Chris de Burg impersonator on Stars in their Eyes and the real Chris de Burg comes out, mid song (Lady in Red, obv) , and joins in. I'll never forget it, full body cringe and I don't even know why.

Richard from Richard and Judy doing his Ali G impression. Even Judy was cringing.

Cannot remember his name but he was on one of the first POP IDOL a Scottish guy with a black ponytail did the most awful version of Hit Me Baby One More Time with all the Mariah Carey voice wobbles. Cringe. They felt so too and they threw him out.

PaulAnkaTheDog · 11/10/2016 23:22

Songbird ah! I asked because they literally posted an article today citing Friends being sometimes homophobic in it. Haha!

In the X Factor final when Nicole Scherzinger is dueting and takes her contestants mic away and doesn't give it back. So much cringe, if no-one knows it I'll link it.

Didijustgetwinkpointshitcanned · 11/10/2016 23:24

I cringed when Will.i.am performed with Cher Lloyd on X factor and whoever had the job of switching on his autotune/synthesiser/whatever it's called for his parts of the song was late with it and didn't do it until a few lines in.

I always cringe at the office too. I know that's the point but I actually have to pause it and take a break before I can carry on Grin

That was Darius KC. He became rather delicious when he lost the ponytail.

TheFormidableMrsC · 11/10/2016 23:25

KC225, that was Darius. He became quite famous in the end!

EverySongbirdSays · 11/10/2016 23:27

KC

Darius Danesh!!!!!!

I tell you what is cringe - Simon Cowells reaction when Susan Boyle walks out for her audition, it's clearly : Oh For Christs Sake, Look At The State Of This and the way he then tries to turn it round when she's actually good.

ArmySal · 11/10/2016 23:28

LOL Cross Posts with 3 people - an icon of the reality age.

Oh when Nigel Lythgoe told Kym to stop eating Roses because she needed to shed a few pounds on Popstars Shock

MargotLovedTom · 11/10/2016 23:32

Oh, when one of the Gallaghers was horribly rude to Michael Hutchence when he presented them with an award at the Brits - I felt really sorry for him Sad.

MargotLovedTom · 11/10/2016 23:33

Speaking of Susan Boyle - fucking Amanda fucking Holden doing a really cruel impersonation of her on Chatty Man.

MothersGrim · 11/10/2016 23:37

This thread needs more videos!

Paul McCartney singing at the Olympic ceremony. I'm not saying he shouldn't have sung it but it does make me cringe .

KC225 · 11/10/2016 23:37

Ladies thank you Darius. Of course.

EverySongbirdSays · 11/10/2016 23:41

Ok more videos, my absolute X Factor highlight. Rylan being accepted on to Live Shows

Both HILARIOUS and CRINGE

ArmySal · 11/10/2016 23:47

Aww I love Rylan Smile

Joss Stone's ridiculous accent.

I don't know what's worse - the "raving" or the fact that Andrew Neil can't get his words out.

Onenerfwarfrombreakdown · 11/10/2016 23:52

Oh dear lord I've just watched the GMTV proposal on the first page ShockShockShock soooo cringey!! I really want to know now if he was just embarrassed or genuinely as reluctant as he looked Confused gawd she seemed so relieved and happy too Confused wonder if the marriage lasted? or if she's been on the relationship board here asking why her husband isn't interested in her

An obvious one, but so worth a re-watch Grin

TheMagicFarawaySleep · 11/10/2016 23:55

Does anyone remember the lady that played Ivy Tilsley - was it Lynne Perrie? - on The Word, years ago? I cringe myself into spasm when I remember what she did with a naked bloke....Shock
