Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

Ooooh!remembered another. Went to see Hundred Reasons/Funeral for a Friend at the Dome in Brighton for the Radio One Live thingys. Anyhoo, I'm standing there with my little gig buddy waiting for the band to come on, and who is standing in front of me, Zane Lowe. Now its fair to say the gig was full of kids, and I mean children with their parents. So all the young girlies are coming up to Zane saying hello and swooning left right and center. To give him credit he was very nice to everyone, and it must be quite annoying being hassled. So I said to my friend, a girl by the way, why don't you grab his arse really hard. So she did. The look on his face was a picture, he was clearly not expecting it. He turned round looking quite shocked to see me and my friend practically crying with laughter.Poor bloke.
He did say I sang good harmonies when I was singing along though, so I think he took it in good humour. Bless the little Antipodean
