gcreptile 10,964 Posted October 29, 2016 There is a "suggested post" on FB which says that Angelina Jolie has been found dead. I don't see any confirmation anywhere so probably a hoax She deserves her own thread anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted December 10, 2016 Noticed this one while skimming through gossip blog blind items: This aging permanent A list rock star who is not a new dad keeps involving himself with people who cause him to relapse . Even though it is the middle of December, two people told me they are not sure if he lives beyond the end of the year unless he gets some help. A-list rock star, "permanent", former addict, specific reference to it not being Mick Jagger.... Mr Steven Tyler? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,437 Posted December 10, 2016 Did we ever find out who CrazyDaysandNight's blind gossip "Hollywood A-lister dying of cancer" from a few years back turned out to be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted December 10, 2016 I assumed it was Omar Sharif, which they were only six months off with iirc. Then again, stopped clocks and all that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,943 Posted December 10, 2016 Is Tyler proper 'A' list? --- even though until recently I had his 74 glam rock stuff on vhs---- Clue in 'permanent'. Gotta be Robert Plant . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted December 17, 2016 Well, last night I was on my own and I was watching the Doco about The Dave Clark Five which, eventually, led me to look up Cathy McGowan which, eventually, led me to a thread on a forum somewhere which suggested that her hubby Michael Ball had played 'Hunt The Sausage' with Prince Edward as well as doing some all in naked wrestling with John Barrowman in a dressing room. Anybody heard anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Im not sure they are married but they have been together for a loooong time now. Yeah, the rumour seems like it has legs. Maybe Handy will be along soon to confirm, she does seem to hear about stuff most of us haven't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,903 Posted December 17, 2016 Cathy McGowan was previously married to Hywel Bennett of course. She does live with Michael Ball and they've been together for a while but Michael has long been rumoured to have been involved with Prince Edward. I did remember reading somewhere that Michael was openly gay until fame came calling and he was persuaded to remain closeted. I think that covers everything. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,130 Posted December 17, 2016 I seem to remember an interview he did years ago (think it was on daytime TV, something like Richard and Judy) in which he talked about some accident he'd had way back which caused severe damage to his wedding tackle. I'm sure it was him. Anyone know anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,026 Posted December 29, 2016 With the speculation regarding an alleged Government D-notice flying about, is it too much to hope it's Liz Truss, former Food and Rural Affairs secretary and now "Lord Chancellor"? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH2ZWF2dS7o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lozzie 9 Posted December 29, 2016 The origin of the rumour about the media blackout was posted yesterday alongside the death of Debbie Reynolds, so 24 hours would be up by now. The tweet has also been deleted. It seems very unlikely that anything is happening. Hopefully it isn't anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted December 31, 2016 That might put me into the top 30 if it's true. It would also mean a substitution for my 2017 theme team. I assumed he'd died months ago and gone unreported. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
