I also once really annoyed Mike Harding.
Therefore I am as famous as everyone else on here.
Posted 5 years agoIt could have been me. I was asked to hand-double for and inappropriate up the jumper incestuous groping scene in some pick-up shoot for a film thats in the cinemas this week. But at the last moment the body double of the gropee decided that “Its too ****ing cold for this shit” and we binned the idea.

I went to Bruce Dickinsons wife;s garden party and fell -on purpose- into the pool. I was sick later and driven home in a Corvette.
I sat next to Katy Perry at lunch once, didnt even know who she was until the wife pointed it out. she was with her agent and nicely normal.
I was once on a guest list as Tony Hadley, the name is similar but I dont think he was that big a fan of Skid Row, so the doorman accepted it was me.
