Two great tweets tonight in response to someone asking "what have you been thrown out of?"

Keith Allan threw me out of his house party in the 80's claiming I was too drunk. That's hard man hedonist, Keith Allan. Called him a cunt on the way out. Happy days. https://t.co/diU54frzPn

Boy George had me thrown out of a party in the 80's claiming I called him a queer. I didn't. I called him a cunt for calling my mates sister a bitch. Happy days. https://t.co/diU54frzPn

Happy days.

He overheard her saying "I AM SMOKING A FAG!" and took it the wrong way.

That reminds me of Elastica.... They couldn't release their debut album with the chosen title of "Smoking Some Fags" because in America that means "Shooting Some Gay People".

My partner interviewed her for her blog and she was apparently absolutely lovely, beyond helpful and nice. What an ace person.

Didn't Helena say in an interview that she had a tough time getting roles because she was posh and pretty? Obviously. It must be sheer hell.

[jobotic]

Yep. That's what happened. I looked it up and that's exactly it.

[dozybugcarrot]

Ah thank you. And how unfortunate.

she's not working so much since she fell out with the only director who ever cast her in anything.

they should have done a big-screen remake of "my wife next door".

I've always wanted to form a death metal band called Fagsmoker and see what sort of audience they got in America.

The continued excellence of Burke brings home the tragedy of Morrissey's mental decline: She's always been a fan (giving "The More You Ignore Me The Closer I Get" as her example of an acceptable love song on room 101, giving a turn as Moz's dead mate in the video for Ouija Board, Ouija Board, etc.); I wonder what her take on his latest bilge is?

Not really true at all.
