Never Meet Your Heroes
They're bound to disappoint - like the time we booked Wayne Hussey for the B3ta Radio Show. Five minutes before we're due to record, Wayne
phones, lost on the M25 with his Brazilian wife screaming in the background. Not so much the King of Goth, as a hen-pecked flake.

Stalked by Sam from Eastenders
Saw her chatting on her phone outside of a tube station once. I recognised her as familiar, but couldn't place her, since I'm not a huge Eastenders fan, and must have given her a funny look or something because she looked back at me like I was scum. It was only when I got down to the platform I realised who she was.
Anyway, I changed lines at Victoria, and shock, horror, she came onto the same platform as me, and ended up standing a couple of meters away from me. I noticed, but didn't stare or anything.
Then she only gets on the same train as me, same carriage, and for the whole of the journey I could see her checking to see if I was looking at her! (I used the window reflections to watch her, much better than her strategy of being blonde and silly and just STARING STRAIGHT AT ME like a crazy bint.)
This went on for the rest of my half hour journey, and I got out at my stop - she turned her face to the window to avoid eye contact.
I guess when you get to the dizzy heights of fame of Eastenders, slumming it on the Tube is just asking to be pawed and ogled by poor, malnourished nobodies like myself :(
In conclusion, I was slighted by a minor celebrity (at least in my mind), in a manner which has nothing to do with the QOTW, but I have told the tale anyway, in case anyone here ever sees aforementioned minor celebrity and would like to show her what real ogling is.
