Aibu to ask if you have a famous DH

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 agree! Some of these posts are coming across as mean.

Have you read the OPs other thread where her opening post was wanting to call another woman at her kids school a cunt?

I'm really curious.

I know hundreds of DJs via my work. I probably know him if he does UK festivals.

You'll probably know him then

@MeadowL - I'll take one for the team here and freely confess I am incredibly jealous.

Now that's out of the way, can you help as to why your global superstar DH is charging to DJ for children? (one of them, his own)

Okokokokokplease · 30/03/2024 21:36

We were the proud owners of one of the Dulux dogs back in the 80s . An absolutely beautiful dog and never barked. Tinders was amazing.

He's not charging he's just covering costs 💃

And yet he was going to charge your child’s disco £200 ….ok !!!!

Ermmm what costs and if he is so successful than £200 is a piss in a rainstorm!!

MeadowL · 30/03/2024 21:37

Understood.

But, surely he already has his own equipment etc and as your child is involved, travel would be inevitable regardless?

So what are the costs involved?

DaBlackCatsAreDaBestCats · 30/03/2024 21:41

Is it Pat Sharp?

RainbowZebraWarrior · 30/03/2024 21:43

Amazing batshit long term 3 day posting history, btw, OP.

PrueintheLoo · 30/03/2024 21:49

It’s all gone Pete Tong

ToxicChristmas · 30/03/2024 21:52

Surely you just swallow the costs for the sake of your kids school. Especially if you are a high earning DJ. I can't get my head round charging for something like that. Where has the £200 come from? He's doing a kids disco, surely it's pretty basic. He isn't headlining Glasto. If he's charging for his time that's tight as fuck.

Axx · 30/03/2024 21:56

Costs? What for a panda pop and a packet of crisps at the disco?

Let him know he'll need some bangers to get the year 6s going. It'll be boys on one side of the sports hall and girls on the other.

Okokokokokplease · 30/03/2024 21:56

OP is just entertaining herself..probably bored ,with low self esteem! Maybe better now to stop replying 🤦‍♀️

Yes

My mum always said we were descended from Prussian Royalty. Unfortunately Prussia is no longer a country to there goes that claim to fame.

let’s hope none of the OPs husbands fans get wind of the disco and turn up en masse. Maybe the 200£ is for security? If I heard fat boy slim was djing at a local school I’d be there for sure.

It’s the pomposity of saying one has a famous husband that is so weird.
People who really DO have well known and recognised partners tend to keep it on the downlow as they know how important privacy is.

That’s why people are taking the piss- “He’s famous in Bletchley “

I expect If he were to see this thread , he’d cringe. 😬

Saying the OP is weird, pompous and her husband would probably cringe is just unkind. Honestly do you have nothing better to do with your time? Just scroll past.

Papyrophile · 30/03/2024 22:09

No.

TediousTim · 30/03/2024 22:14

@MeadowL OP can we play Top Trumps?
A former colleague of mine was going out with (and is now married to) the DJ David Holmes.

Is your DH more or less famous than David Holmes?
I'd give David Holmes:
5/10 for international fame.
1/10 for recognisability
9/10 for local fame in NI.
10/10 for famous associations.
10/10 for film soundtracks.
4/10 for recent festivals
0/10 for school disco appeal

My husband is very very very famous, think David Tennant only better looking and sexier.

Well that's not hard. The skinny no mark 😂
