To bring you this Tom Jones tea?!

[hotmumshit]

ITV sacked him from The Voice, then decided to reframe it as; hes some kind of super coach

Only they arent paying him properly

ITV is notably having money problems, we know that from them axing their studio audiences for shows like Loose Women and Big Brother

How amazing that we've still got celebs who can do this, without being 'media trained' aka dull

😬

(If you dont like celeb goss, thats fine, please do not bully me for your lack of sparkle and joy)

Chuffing ‘eck is he 86.

Didn't the BBC do that to him as well before it moved to ITV and he got reinstated?
Smacks of ageism.

Where does the tea come into it?

Bugger OP...I imagined some collaboration with Tetley

I suppose it's not unusual to do this sort of thing

I was imagining a china tea cup with his face on it, a bit like those Charles and Di ones 😆

Tom Jones is vile. I suspect itv have heard rumours and wanted shot of him before it all comes out.

Thank you. I thought this must be a mistype or perhaps young person speak and I'm glad someone else has questioned it. What does it mean OP?
I love Sir Tom and thought he was great on the Voice.

You're 86, Tommo. Give someone else a turn.

What? What's he done?
Quite a mystery thread this.

😄😄 re the tea comments

'Tea' is the gossip - usually you sip tea and take in the gossip

Not too many gifs from me, but Cardi B shows you how enjoying gossip should be done!

Omg whats he done?!

Oh i didnt know that - same with Mary berry maybe?

Unusual of them to do it to men though...

Tea is young person speak for gossip I believe. My teens often say ooh do you want to hear some tea when they have gossip. No idea how it started though lol.

It seems that The Voice producers are quick to change the coaching line up. It’s not a programme I’ve watched much, but I think Will I am is the only original coach now. They got rid of Olly Murs and I read that Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones are out too.

Love it when celebs don’t toe the official line 🤪

Me too! So sick of them being pr managed robots

Lets see a bit of personality, how can we like you otherwise!

I thought Mary Berry left of her own accord. Given they replaced her with Prue Leith, I think it would be hard to consider any ageism, there.
It's just interesting that TJ has been dropped from the same show twice. If it's a cash thing, it could be because he's the highest paid, but I don't know.

I haven't watched it since it was on BBC, but TJ was popular with viewers and contestants, so I can't really see why they'd drop him over will.i.am, who is also popular with viewers and contestants, other than his age. I wouldn't have thought he'd be paid more than will.i.am, but he might be.

I thought it was a new version of afternoon tea called Tom Jones 🤣

To be fair, it did take me moment when I initially saw the thread title to realise it wasn't going to be about Tom Jones becoming the new face of Tetley...

This was my first reaction as well!

Wow. Never heard that before & I have 2 teens at home & work with loads of them too

Every time something about Tom Jones comes up, I just know somebody's going to make the 'it's not unusual' joke, and no matter how many times they do, it still makes me laugh.

Been very sexually promiscuous througout his career with huge numbers of fans. He got away with it 10 years ago as people shrugged it off as 'tom will be tom'. But with more pressure not to have the Philip Schofields, Greg Wallace's etc being tolerated so well, I suspect they know something will come out.

He has a jovial persona but he's not a nice man. He had a son he refused to acknowledge or support until court ordered.

Oooh, well done!
