Famous people - Well known to the public

[SIRandyraven]

I'm rubbish at spotting stars or well know by the public people.

Sat next to Gary Lineker once at a Simply Red concert many years ago.
The venue staff kept looking up and I figured that maybe I was in the wrong seats (Comp tickets). It's only when chap behind me overheard me saying to wife "People keep looking up at us , we must be in wrong seats" , he muttered in my ear ...that's Gary Lineker they are looking up at ...oh errrr Footballer ...yes crisp adverts that's it ...lol

I was sat next to Elton John,not too long ago,when he pulled down his
shirt to show the Scissor Sisters the Medusa tattoo he has on his rght
shoulder-blade - recognised him tho" - and he was very witty too!

Sirandy, may I ask what you do for a living? If I may be so bold.

I`ve met the whole world over the years at work. Some people that you think will be horrible can be as nice as pie and others can be completely nondescript. That`s when you realise they only turn on the personality for the media. I`ve met Gary Lineker too. What strikes me about these people (and he`s one of them) is how short/tiny they are. They always seem so big on the tv.

Dad works in the music industry and I'm in the IT industry.
Thus he gets the comp tickets.
He is doing the George Michael tour at the moment, kicking off in Denmark , this weekend.
He say's it's more or less a sell out !
Seems he still pulls in the crowds.

I stopped at the lights the other day and that bloke of location location location crossed over the road.
