YANBU, because sexual attraction is a very strange thing, so it's your right to lust after James. However, I really don't like his accent - far too posh for a rough Northern girl like me - and he'd really get on my nerves. Oh, and his lyrics are so pants sometimes that they make me scream at the radio.

He's yours, HHMW. I will not cause an ugly scene over him on Christmas Morning.

MerryAnnSinglemas · 18/12/2007 18:34

oh yuck, though warmed to him a bit after seeing him on Top Gear

lazawreath · 18/12/2007 18:43

I LOVE james blunt. Oh, i see i am in the minority

mm22bys · 18/12/2007 18:53

He is hideous - anyone see him on Strictly Come Dancing. Completely gross. Why do young guys grow beards? Yuk, Yuk, Yuk!

Now Gethin is another matter!!!!

MarsyChristmas · 18/12/2007 18:56

No not at all. If you'd wanted my Clive or Taye or Jamie or Justin or Denzil or Tyrese then you'd have been unreasonable. But James Blunt... you go girl!

helenhismadwife · 18/12/2007 19:12

oohhh good nobody is going to fight me for him I wouldnt have minded getting in the back seat of the car he drove on top gear with him.

I wouldnt fight for him helen. I would have to have him first though, can't be doing with sloppy seconds

OhGiveUsAPruniPudding · 18/12/2007 19:23

I loathe his music
I loathe his singing voice and his speaking voice and his accent
But I am 90% sure I saw him in Edinburgh once and yes he is unaccountably quite attractive
Not christmas stocking material though (I would quite like Daniel Craig and my MIL knows him so it's not absolutely impossible.)
(Still unlikely though isn't it? Bah.)

lazawreath · 18/12/2007 19:24

I relly like his voice, very gentle and sexy.

helenhismadwife · 18/12/2007 19:30

ohhh no laza I asked first and from what I have read he has a reputation as a male tart so its probably sloppy 72nds

I wouldnt mind sean slater off eastenders either he can go in the other stocking

Helen, it looks like it may be a full on brawl. I too am partial to a bit of sean slater.

SantasElasticKnickers · 18/12/2007 20:03

i liked him on top gear

SantasElasticKnickers · 18/12/2007 20:03

who is sean slate?

helenhismadwife · 18/12/2007 20:04

sorry got static burns on my tongue now from licking the tv screen when he was on

need to get rid of that carly [fgreen] the floozy

OP posts:
SantasElasticKnickers · 18/12/2007 20:04

helenhismadwife · 18/12/2007 20:04

YANBU on the grounds that if he is in your christmas stocking there is no possibility of him droning away and squinting in mine.

If you want to see an impression of him get someone to sing one of his songs and then, mid song, pluck one of their nasal hairs out with a tweezer.
It will work

yurt1 · 18/12/2007 20:13

I'd like to find him in mine too helen.

contentiouscat · 18/12/2007 20:19

I thought he was quite charming & witty on top gear, I can see why he has the success with the laydees that he does but sorry he doesnt float my boat - if you believe what you read in the papers hes a real tart (and he talks like a girl)

George Clooney for me although it would be a temporary fun fling as I suspect his boyish humour would wear thin after a while.

MerryPIFFLEmas · 18/12/2007 20:23

I am the same I really like him but cannot understand why.

yurt1 · 18/12/2007 20:33

Oh he's a dog I'm sure but most of the old Harrovians I know are.

MerryPIFFLEmas · 18/12/2007 20:35

My mother would term him thus, a fanny rat

helenhismadwife · 18/12/2007 20:49

droning and squinting pw he has the sexiest voice

yes definately a tart and fanny rat
