Looks gorgeous anyway but is unbelievable that she’s 55

I feel much happier knowing you're watching on tv and not covered in glitter dancing like nobody's watching in a field with 100K others and a weak bladder. 😬

I am tragically watching, in pyjamas.

I vividly remember Neneh Cherry and her baby bump on TOTP. Can't believe 'bump' is now 30 and Neneh also has an older child who's in her late 30s! Shock

IcedPurple · 29/06/2019 20:33

Yes glowing flawless skin. And it doesn't look to me like she's had 'work' done. Just naturally gorgeous.

PolkadotLollipop · 29/06/2019 20:33

I am watching in pjs with a glass of wine. No glitter or selfies.

howdyalikemenow · 29/06/2019 20:33

Ah no op I'm doing that in my garden and pudding off all the neighbours with my annoying singing and glitter throwing!!!

I'm glad we're all being collectively tragic!

and you're bemoaning the fact that people think you've been a bit of a dick?

Allow me to help you build a bridge to get the fuck over yourself!

Emmapeeler · 29/06/2019 20:36

I remember the bump too. I thought she was so cool (because she is), and learned all the words to Buffalo Stance (I was still not cool).

howdyalikemenow · 29/06/2019 20:36

Same Apple

Far2go46 · 29/06/2019 20:36

I think we're all going senile

howdyalikemenow · 29/06/2019 20:37

@Emmapeeler same here! Still play that track regularly!

Herbalteahippie · 29/06/2019 20:37

YABU. music is for everyone and it takes years to see the whole festival. I’ve met the best old ravers, some nearly 80 years old and still avin it large.
I can see the toilet thing becoming more problematic with age though...

PeriComoToes · 29/06/2019 20:39

Tell us what you like doing for fun OP then someone can come along and 'cringe' at you.

Snarky and YABU

IcedPurple · 29/06/2019 20:40

Who's hte guy in the pink leopard skin shirt? He's kind of hot. Mind you, I'm probably old enough to be his mum....

PolkadotLollipop · 29/06/2019 20:40

It’s the lead singer of Foals. He has got a certain something.

RosesAndRaindrops · 29/06/2019 20:40

I'm now seeking out Buffalo Stance on Youtube to add to my cheesefest.
Bananarama just started playing. Need some Neneh now Grin
I'd put it on the telly but the household is film watching whilst I MN and drink wine.
Makes me tragic I can't even get the telly version never mind the live one but lucky I'm old enough not to give a shit Grin

Quintella · 29/06/2019 20:41

I think Buffalo Stance is a stone cold classic.

Quintella · 29/06/2019 20:42

Yeah I was looking at Foals man thinking 'do I fancy him?'

I probably would.

IcedPurple · 29/06/2019 20:42

@PolkadotLollipop Hmmm.... yes he does. He's not normally the type I would go for - I usually prefer 'em skinny and unhairy - but he does have a certain je ne sais quoi.
