Paula Yates

Cooley

Foxy_Dread What I said was uncalled for, and an untruth. I apologise.

Foxy_Dread

Cooley That's very good of you but there was no need to apologise. It's only the internet and not to be taken too seriously.

I bet you could count the number of babies named Paula last year on the (really want to see those) fingers of one hand....

Tolley

Travis_Bickle It would probably have to be on those people with six fingers on each hand.

Under-the-ground

I thought it was a really well put together documentary. Part of me feels sorry for her but she did say some stupid stuff about women staying at home being earth mothers & shit. But for someone who was obviously intelligent & well read she fell for the media stuff .

But no doubt the media hammered some of the nails in

Reggie_Perrin

Wasn't she also privileged?

Didn't she cheat on Geldof many many times with high profile geezers? Didn't her decadent lifestyle contribute to her daughter's instability?

Hard to like i'd say.

otis

Didn't she have a column in the news of the world?

Undoubtedly sexy but always something a bit strange about her.
Not sure if it was the "I'll flirt with any man, no matter if I'm married or if he is". The unsublety (sp) of it
Or that she loved to play the media game, until they started to use her.

Harvest

Not watched it, no real interest. Wasn't she involved with Terrence Trent D'Arby when she was married too? Seemed to get about a bit.

Harvest there’s a good bit in the documentary with him. He looks fucked. He went a bit funny I remember? His second album the wierd one is ace

Jon

Bit of a lad if you’re a man. Slag if you’re a woman. Strange world we live in.

Cooley

Under-the-ground Big lad ‘an all, apparently. Hence the nickname ‘Donkey’ Derby. 😳

Harvest

Saw him supporting Bowie at Wembley, impressive live.

cordshoes

Harvest I saw him at the Hacienda of all places.
He jumped into the audience to sing at one point and also did a saucy British limerick.
He had some proper foot tappers.

Harvest

cordshoes Thinking about it, I think it was at Maine Road I saw him. Maybe he only played Manc gigs.

otis

cordshoes ended up in his after show partly at Mr Craig's for about five minutes.

Bastards never let us stay

Harvest

I still occasionally say Maine Road when on about their current morgue.🤫🤫🤫
