Aibu to ask if you have a famous DH

[MeadowL]

Does it bother you? I have a semi famous DH, he gets paid to gig and go on podcasts etc if we go out locally he does get asked for selfies so we tend to go away for weekends as a family.

I do find it slightly annoying but I guess it pays the bills 💃

I'd give you loads of juicy details OP, but I wouldn't like to make you feel bad about your clear attempt at a brag. I mean local discos, WOWZERS!

I am so sorry but I am howling here! I have an image in my head of a middle aged bloke with questionable fashion sense setting up in a school hall and shouting Shabba at the kids after every song! You op in my head take your blokes legendary status all in your stride.As I picture you know you have a blond beehive haircut ,black tights and white slingbacks sat at his side eating a potted meat sandwhich out of tinfoil you made at home to bring with you,desperately struggling to undo a thermos flask of coffee.. either way fame is a fickle thing as a warning, please be aware school halls with Dave the dawg today (the dizzying heights I know!) next week the care home christmas party! How will you both come with the stardom I do not know..just enjoy it for now and make sure those pesky kids don;t spill blackcurrant juice on his decks....Shabba!

Yeah, MIL was household name in the 80's...barely gets recognised now and lives a quiet life in small semi detached house ( money runs out when work stops).

She gets the occasional acting job and advert, and actors don't have a retirement age, so you never know - might be 'big' again one day!

Wfh

hahahaha! Please tell me your DH has a mullet and wears sunglasses indoors?- in my head he does

Ray Von style ala phoenix nights.

Put him on in the Pennine Suite! hahahahaha x
Bet he has all the dance moves down to Agadoo! Bet his pineapple shaking is something to behold....SHABBA!!

Is there a MN competition for the Bank Hols entitled "Who can start the most threads that make them look like a complete and utter plonker"?

I must have missed the announcement.

With the drunk horse! 😂

Similar to my DH, and his dad's the same.

I can't cope! Woke the kids up laughing! What I was thinking though reading the title again...semi-famous bit. My husband had a famous semi most of the last year, neither use or ornament really despite the viagra!

Are people drunk when they start these threads. I’m struggling to find another explanation 😂

My sil works as a receptionist at the local over 60's social club. Going around town with her is like hanging out with a local celebrity. We can't go anywhere without some old dears coming up to her and asking her if she's going to be in on Tuesday or how much they missed her that morning, or whether Zumba Gold is still on!

I heard that op's DP gained fame for his DJing skills at a school disco. I wonder if he'll create a 30-second drop video promo for TikTok. It's quite amusing to think about. 😂
On a different note, it's been said that DP has a history of womanising, according to his friend's ex-partner. Rather embarrassing for him as she told the whole courtyard bar area and myself quite soon after we'd just met. At this point, DP had been pretending to be Father Teresa and was practically sinless.

Yes, I have a family member who is famous, world-wide famous.
However, I don’t feel the need to tell others.
They too are sponsored, however I don’t feel the need to tell others, they too get spoken to by people wherever they go however, I don’t feel the need to tell others.
In all honestly, I find your post odd.

A friend is married to an athlete who was top of his sport for a while (think olympic gold, world championships etc). So was on telly a bit etc. But you'd never recognise him in the street now unless you followed that sport, he wasn't like jessica ennis-hill or chris hoy etc who got tv ads and stuff although he did did get loads of sponsorships & free stuff.

My daughter was on Secret Life of 5 Year Olds a few years back, that show where kids are put together and are filmed doing different tasks and interacting with each other. It was great fun! After it aired she was recognised a few times, once by a lady on the cash desk at Tesco who asked for her autograph and another time at a petting farm where a family kept staring then the teenage girl came over to as if it was the little girl from the programme and that she had been their favourite. All very cute at the time and lovely memories for the week we filmed in London one boiling hot summer.

Swimming or walking?

Matthew Garber - the boy from
Mary Poppins, I believe died from Hepatitis not an overdose.

That’s absolutely made my day! Thank you 😂😂

@PitterPatter3 Brookside?

DS got sponsored by the skateboarding shop when he was younger.
Not one of the general public knew who he was, only other skaters.

But he did get an arch of skateboards at his wedding.

I am so shamelessly over invested in this thread. All I know for sure is you know when you have made it big when the PTA come knocking! Ahh bless you OP Good luck to the both of you! Now back in the real world I am off to make the beds...shabba!

Do you not trust him OP?

I didn’t read your other thread, so I’m just wondering why it would be an issue for you.

I know a Z list celeb who is very well known locally, in many parts of the UK and in some other countries and I have to tell you that I feel very sorry for his wife.

I actually think an A list celeb would be much less narcissistic and big headed.

This man does get a lot of attention and he thinks he’s Gods gift to women.

I don’t know why the wife stays with him tbh as he makes out like she’s lucky to be with him.
