Does it count as cheating if it's with a celebrity?

My friend (female) kissed one of her childhood hearthrobs at the weekend. We were down in London and ended up in a club he was in. Anyway she got the nerve to talk to him and we ended up sitting with his group and she ended up all over him in the booth. No sex, but a lot of kissing and wandering hands.

She told her husband when we got home!! He doesn't mind (or so he says). The guy was on her list of people she's allowed to sleep with, she had posters of him on her bedroom walls and he's in his late 40's/early 50's now? Anyway her and her husband both agree it doesn't count as cheating if it's someone on the list or someone famous. WTF? I don't know if she'd slept with him if he'd be bothered even? They've been together 20 years, married 15 and neither of them have ever cheated before. Both just carrying on, I'm in shock she told him so freely and he doesn't mind!!

Well obviously it depends if the list is laminated or not...

Ah bless him Smile

Some of these guesses I can't believe people had posters of haha, that's what is stumping me, I can't think of any heart throbs-turned-sleazeballs!

FirstOfMyName · 18/06/2018 22:39

Mind you I’d be very pissed off if I was your friend!

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:41

Who was that bloke who was on everything for a few years in the 90's - then disappeared in a puff of smoke. He used to be on a Channel 4 show where they had to do improv stuff and had a really fake posh accent.

Anyway, him?

I went to a JD concert in 1990!

My friend got off with Zammo from Grange Hill.

God I haven't said "got off" for years Grin

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:45

Ah yes that's it Somuch - he was Tony someone.

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:46

Zammo has his own bike shop now.

Slattery? I was thinking you meant the tall, gangly one

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 18/06/2018 22:47

Trevor & Simon?

@BadTasteFlump Tony Slattery?

Was it Eamonn Holmes? I had a crush on him way back then. I had bad taste in men when I was younger! He's definitely not on my list now.

I'm pretty sure my current celebrity crush (Chris Evans, Captain America) has me on his list. I'm sure he wants a short fat 42 yo mother of 5. For sure. Wink Luckily I'm now single, so he's in luck. Grin

Did people fancy Tony Hadley once?

Tony Hadley tried to crack onto me when I was a student. I knew who he was and liked his music but thought he was acting like a gross old pervert. (Sorry if that's ageist. He was a lot older than me at the time). When I refused him, he tried it on with my friend, then my other friend, then another lady standing nearby who looked as repulsed as we were.

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:48

Oh my god, just googled him - he's slipped off the hook a bit!

Notsureaboutit · 18/06/2018 22:48

Is he hot or not?

papersmile · 18/06/2018 22:49

Tony Slattery? Badtaste and Flump.

Umm I think that's unlikely.

BadTasteFlump · 18/06/2018 22:49

somuch the gangly one was American wasn't he? And looked and sounded like Beaker from The Muppets.

somuchunanswered · 18/06/2018 22:51

True. Ryan Stiles, apparently.

But TS always looked to me like he was born being in his 40s.

Wow. My DH would not be happy but if it was Chris hemsworth or Idris Elba I would do it anyway. Wouldn’t do it for a faded pop star or B list soap actor though. I’d only cheat with absolute Top Totty
