Hahaha.
He wasn't a huge star. But I loved him.
My first boyfriend got me a birthday card signed by him. Still a treasured.

I was a teen in the 70s. One of the big stars then is dead now, not irrelevant in the sense that his notoriety will forever keep in the history books for all the wrong reasons. I will not say his name on here. You know who I mean. He always made my skin crawl

Irrelevant seems slightly unfair if someone is dead!

Could they be less relevant because they’re aging and now retired?

MariePaperRoses · 03/10/2023 09:11

Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks.

Blinkinbloodyhayfever · 03/10/2023 09:11

I don't really understand the irrelevant thing, surely people have their careers then retire, which doesn't mean they are irrelvant. If it means tainted then Jimmy Saville, he was huge. Any legacy he would have had through charity work is tainted.
