I just read a great newspaper review, written by Glenn Meads for The Manchester Evening News and you know what, I don’t think he mentioned Osmond teeth once in the article, WOW!! LOL
I also liked this article because, again, it’s another with a slideshow from the event, so some great pictures and this time lots of fans photo’s too, I like seeing the fans and their happy faces.
When I looked at the slideshow there was one picture, I think ’11 of 12′ in the slideshow of a celebrity going to the concert, Michael Lavel who plays “Kevin” in Coronation Street, now I wonder, is he the fan or was it for his wife, also pictured in the slideshow with their lovely family.
It also reminded me of one of Donny’s appearances at Hammersmith Apollo a couple of years ago where I spotted another Celebrity attendee and this time he was on his own so you knew it was because HE wanted to be there, very cool. I also spoke to Tony and this is how that turned out:
I had lost my ticket but was able to get it reprinted at the box office, so had to queue up for the ticket just before the show started, whilst waiting in the queue I happened to turn around and got the shock of my life when I found myself looking up to (he is VERY tall, well to me he is as I am only 5ft) Tony Slattery, a favourite comedian of mine who I love watching in “Whose Line is it Anyway” on TV.
He was grinning at me and my obvious shock so I had to speak to him now didn’t I??.. I just said something completely stupid like…
“wow Tony, fancy seeing you here” and then.. get this, “what are you doing here?” to which of course he answered, waiting to get my ticket LOL – so I think I said, “Oh you like Donny then?” and he said, he used to love The Osmonds music in the 70′s and saw Donny was playing here so thought he would pop along and catch the show…
I was impressed, most blokes who are NOT celebs who are old enough to have been teens in the 70′s won’t admit liking The Osmonds music so I was dead chuffed to hear Tony saying that.. made my night.
It got me to thinking, how many other Celebs are there out there who like the Osmonds and go to their concerts? If you have been to an Osmond or Donny concert, have you bumped into or seen any celebs going along, we would love to hear about it so please do let us know by leaving a comment or sending the story in, use the Contact Me page for that.
