Tell the truth, or a lie, about a celebrity

I went to Gino D’Acampo’s restaurant in Leeds, and asked if the famous chef would come to our table, so we could thank him for the excellent food. The waiter explained that he was busy, but that the girl at our table who had a crush on him, was allowed to go into the kitchen and say hello. When she returned, we asked her what he was like. She said he was quite short, very pleasant, but smelt of rosemary.
Turned out Rosemary was the girl who did the dishes…
 
When Kevin Keegan packed the England managers job in and the British press were searching for him for days....I was having a chat with him in the carpark of Safeway in Norton ( where I worked) as his wife was a regular when they lived in Wynyard....if I remember rightly he was in someone else's car though....I'm pretty sure it was Alun Armstrongs!
 
My wife and her sisters met Victor Meldrew (whatever his real name is) at a lottery winners party, they thought they’d gone for a burger in a fancy place in London but went through the wrong door. Embarrassingly the truth came out (cos we’re not lottery winners) when he asked how much they’d won 😂😂

True story.

You're not supposed to say whether its true or not! That is so true though.
 
Had Tina Turner chatting with me over two days in a crane on top of the Sydney harbour bridge when she was making a
commercial for the NRL ( rugby league )
Simply the best. ;)
 
Had to have a very strong word with Captain Bob when he ripped up the sun newspaper that one of the lads was reading, and said he shouldn't be reading that rubbish, he should be reading the mirror.
 
I weed on John McGinley’s feet before our cup final win in Cardiff
I sat next to Dave Spikey on the train on the way back from that glorious final, he was soooo ***ed off! He got off at Cheltenham. I had to change at Birmingham and as I ran from one platform to another I knocked a girl off her feet, she was an actress on Eastenders. She was stunning too.

Could be true that. Not a lot of people know it but Tina Turner was a crane driver before she made it big in show business, it's well known that she likes hanging around construction sites to watch lifting operations.
 
Paul Weller sent me a rough demo of a cover version he did of a Terry Callier song to ask my opinion of how good it was.

Stupidly I told him the truth, and I have not heard from him since.
