This is super lukewarm 'tea' and probably not that interesting but I'll share anyway ...

Many, many, years ago I saw Jack Black walking down Lambton Quay, one of Wellington's (NZ) main shopping streets. He was with some other guys who I'm going to assume were actors but I didn't know who they were by sight. It was on a Sunday and very quiet - not many shops were open on Sundays back then. I thought he was a familiar face but couldn't place him and said "Hi!" with a big smile. "Well hello there," he said back with his American accent. He was really nice and stopped, but I kept walking because I just couldn't think where I knew him from and didn't want to sound silly :LOL: . To think I could have met him, fallen in love, moved to Los Angeles and become Mrs Blackbird Black! :unsure::LOL:

In the late '90s I saw Ronan Keating, also walking down Lambton Quay, but on a Friday afternoon when there were heaps of people around. He'd been at a CD store signing stuff and was being chaperoned by a young lady who I guess was his PR. He didn't have a bodyguard with him which surprised me. I walked past him and smiled; he had a permanent smile on his face and looked really happy. He was shorter than I thought he would be and didn't have presence like so many famous people have.

Duff McKagan (Guns 'n' Roses) and his wife Susan Holmes ('90s model) ... were seated at the table next to us in Melbourne (AU) a few years back. She was super nice. He was busy talking to a heap of guys. They had a LOT of security around them.

James Nesbitt and his family lived in Wellington (NZ) for a while when he was filming something, and sent his kids to the same school as a friend's kids. They weren't in the same class, but didn't receive any special treatment and were apparently really normal.

A lady I worked with many years ago had a year-long love affair with Orlando Bloom. He wanted to keep it on the downlow. She was extremely in love and thought he felt the same, but not long after he moved away - and didn't invite her to go with him - and then married Miranda Kerr.

Oooh - one more. James Cameron has a fancy property in the Wairarapa (lower North Island of NZ). Everyone who works for him and his wife is sworn to secrecy with very exhaustive NDAs, but a couple of people I know down that way have met him and said he's really nice. They apparently make an effort to go to some of the eateries and mix with locals.

Well said and I couldnt agree more- I can't bear anyone being referred to as "just a...." anything- who knows what has led them there, have some empathy

basically that she would change lines etc in the script if she felt things didn’t make sense, or suggest changes etc. she came across as someone with a lot of pride in her work tbh and said something like she didn’t want to watch it later and not be happy with it.

as secretlondoner says above, the show runner appears to have taken great offence to it all. but jenna is the show imo. she’s by far the most watchable actor in it and she’s the central character!
Oh dear well we all know what happened to Joey Tribbiani 😭

Also, DM has monetised the Menopause. Jumped on a bandwagon big time.Like she invented it.
This applies to any celeb who carries on as if they are the only one to have a baby or some other everyday stuff that millions go through. YOU AREN'T SPECIAL, STACEY MORON SOLOMON (not just her).

So, Daniella Westcrack has been “flaunting her amazing body” and “frolicking on the beach” (I wish I knew how to frolic). It really is a case of nice legs shame about the face! If you zoom in she looks like a dinner lady in a deprived school. So grim. Sorry that it’s a Scum link

this is my particular favourite:

I’ve met Alison Hammond at a This Morning shoot which involved contestants for want of a better word so similar to GBBO.
she was really great, warm, approachable etc. I think she will be great In that kind of role.

A friend has said Ant has gone a bit manic since going sober and suspects the alcohol and pain killers were actually subduing an overarching mental health difficulty or neurodivergency and whatever we're seeing is the real him now, unmasked.

Dec is a sweetheart and i think he has real twin flame in ant. He loves him so much ( platonically!!)but I think he's definitely the one that keeps them on tv
Dec proved he could totally go it alone when Ant was recovering

I mean, surely there is no way he could actually get it up? At best you’d have to do some porn style over-acting and tell him how good his not-erection feels when it’s not in your minge?

I‘ve thought about this too much.
We need some decent gossip. 😬

According to a blind item , it was allegedly a set up to get him an Oscar on the sympathy vote .
wait, that the groping was a set up?!

it happened in 2003 and brendan f first spoke about it in 2018 - that’s one hell of a long game to play for a sympathy vote?! (also, philip berk admitted to doing it!)

Right, as we have no bloody gossip, and there are clearly a few immoral slappers on this thread, let’s put our cards on the table re: Rupert Murdoch.

I’ll do it all for £245,000.
Half day.
No photos or filming.
A little midazolam would be appreciated too.

@LaBlonde - you next

Thank(space)you these initials confuse
Me too. If the person isn't the current topic of conversation (if 800 other chats aren't happening) initials just annoy me. It takes less than a second to type out Russell Brand or Tom Cruise or Robbie Williams or whatever. And text predictions make it quicker. I don't get it 😄
