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.

Not a hero at all, but none of the others are either
My girlfriend helped out with her filmmaking teacher's film last year. She was working as a script girl down in Gwangju, Korea. One of the actresses showed up with that familiar "Do you know who I fucking am?" attitude. Her only credential was that she'd been in one commercial in her entire life. But in Korea that's a big deal. I've since seen her on a commercial but I don't know her name and I doubt you'd care.
And then she sat on my girlfriend's sunglasses. Sunglasses I'd bought her for about 2 pounds at a market. She fled the scene of the crime but someone told my girlfriend who'd done it. When she approached the actress, the girl started counting out money, "Alright, how much were they worth? 50 pounds? 100?"
Rather than take this woman for some money, my girlfriend decided a cheap shot was in order: "Save it so you can bribe another director into letting you on another TV commercial."
