am watching the voice, only 2 mins in and he's annoyed me already

as for Jennifer Hudson, I wouldn't get tired of slapping her

5 mins of this is enough

I think he’s fab. Can’t stand The Voice’ tho and all the cringeworthy ‘you press the button / I’ll Pretend to press the button malarkey xx

SoupDragon · 01/04/2018 14:27

I think that once you realise he has ADHD he makes a lot more sense.

quitecontrary123 · 01/04/2018 14:28

Don't mind him but I can't bear Olly "Pervs."

BishopBrennansArse · 01/04/2018 14:29

@lattewith3shotsplease has that been more recent? When the Lumley documentary aired it was 'just' ADHD but as it's a common comorbidity I wouldn't be at all surprised.

Haisuli · 01/04/2018 14:30

Oh no, I love him. He's my number one celebrity crush. I would totally pick him if I was on the voice. I follow him on Instagram however, and haven't got a clue what he is on about most of the time Grin

Herbalteahippie · 01/04/2018 14:31

Maybe Watch another show on tv... I’m the same with Lowri Turner her mouth is too big for her face. I have to turn it off when her stupid face is on tv

FancyRibbon · 01/04/2018 14:31

My mate met him, he was polite, courteous and respectful of women apparently. That’s not a common attitude for men in the music industry.

Isthisnameacceptable01 · 01/04/2018 14:41

I like Will. I adore Jennifer. The other too not so much

lattewith3shotsplease · 01/04/2018 14:42

@BishopBrennansArse ,

It was many years ago on TV.
It involved all his family.

It definitely changed my mind about him, as before that I though he was a bit of a dickhead.

Sorry I cant remember any more details.

KriticalSoul · 01/04/2018 14:51

I think hes fab, but then I have a son with adhd/asd and hes just as random as Will.

He's a genius and does a lot of charitable work, he's respectful of women, doesn't take drugs, loves his family.

What is there not to like?

MorningsEleven · 01/04/2018 14:56

My only issue with Will is that he's matey with Basher Tweedy and I can't stand her.

NerrSnerr · 01/04/2018 15:01

I really like him. He is all over the place but for me that's part of his charm.

MsHomeSlice · 01/04/2018 15:04

i wasn't keen when I saw him a while back on Graham Norton, he pretty much ignored all the other guests and only looked barely interested when they were discussing his book, but then I guess his autism explains that.

Oneapenny · 01/04/2018 15:09

I like him a lot. I like the way he plays with language although it is silly a lot of the time. He seems respectful of women which is more than can be said of Olly who is too inexperienced to be on the show anyway.

joystir59 · 01/04/2018 15:10

OP perhaps ur a racist

SoupDragon · 01/04/2018 15:13

Don’t be ridiculous, joystir

honeyroar · 01/04/2018 15:18

Joystir perhaps you are an idiot? (Or like stirring, as your name suggests).

He wasn't very respectful or kind when I worked with him. I can believe he had ADHD - I didn't know that.

He does come across well on the show though, I can see why people like him, he just wasn't like that in real life.

TempusFugitive · 01/04/2018 22:24

Only seen him interviewed once (with the irritating miriam margoyles - who all of mumsnet except me loves) and i remember thinking how well he came across compared to her and diplomatically he dealt with her idiocy awkwardness around a black man

Chimchar · 01/04/2018 22:36

I really like him.

piercinggelo · 01/04/2018 22:45

YABU to judge the man based on 2 mins television viewing. Maybe with a bit more research you could make a more informed decision.

Prettylovely · 01/04/2018 22:49

I think hes great!

LittleLionMansMummy · 01/04/2018 22:51

I really, really like him. He seems very genuine.

Rubyhay · 01/04/2018 22:58

honeyroar when you worked with him. Lol. Did he make some hurtful comments when you were on stage...sweeping it

Joinourclub · 01/04/2018 23:02

I think he's a genuine good bloke.

CrochetBelle · 01/04/2018 23:04

Yeah these fucking annoying assholes with their annoying disabling medical conditions.

Hmm
