To Tweet Or Not To Tweet (Celebrity Overload) ??

Just because there is demand for something, doesn't necessarily mean that those demanding it are deserving or entitled to whatever it is.

Hmmmmm.... yet we (as tax payers) are paying for licence fees, etc. - so, if something isn't up to our standards, are we perhaps not entitled to know more?? (just a thought).

I don't quite understand the argument there. Paying the license fee and taxes should have no bearing on what a famous face gets up to in their private life.

If they are doing something criminal then yes by all means run a story on it, but my argument is that a story such as the mystery footballer (not going to say his name as I don't know if posting it could come back to bite the site and Jono on the bum) doesn't exactly have anything to do with his abilities as a footballer so why can't he be entitled to deal with the matter privately without the scum journalists getting their grubby hands all over it?

I'm not defending whatever may or may not have been done with Imogen Thomas. I just think that peoples privacy should be respected and if the media doesn't want to respect it, they should be forced to by way of injunctions and gagging orders.

Not impressed with censorship

very true.

what ryan giggs did was wrong, but it's between him, that imogen socialite bint, and his wife. everybody who understands football knows what a great footballers giggs has been, and that's what the public should know him for.

on the grid.

All true..... but I'm sorry but he thought he could just buy his way out the situation !! It's thanks to his legal team that Imogen wound up in the tabloids. Apparently she is now suffering from anxiety, and is on medication.... and he thought he could just f*** off nice and easily!! Well, ha ha!!!! :hahaha:

Apparently Twitter may release the names of all those who re-tweeted the name now? I've never heard anything so bloody ridiculous. So what? About 200,000 people wind up in Court??

I spent the morning looking up celebs who live in my area. So far, I've found Debra Stephenson. Apparently Martin Clunes and Howard off of Take That sometimes come down here. Unfortunately, they all shop in Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Waitrose. We only shop in Tesco and Asda. Meh.

OMASM. Radio presenters are like fruit. Matt is my kumquat and Scott is blatantly my orange.

I'm only following people who I think are worth following. People who think they're 'famous' becasue of shows like Big Brother annoy me. But it depends how famous you are, and if you're mega famous, stuff about you's gonna get found out sooner or later.

In the end, celeb's choose what they put out there, and it's their fault if it all backfires in their faces

The sheep is not a creature of the air.

    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
    • Have been reading this all week. She's such a brave woman. Just got to the chapter where she explains why she missed Scott's leaving event at Radio 1. She talks about leaving Radio 1 because her mum's health got worse, and wanting to quietly leave radio at 44 just how she first arrived on the airwaves at 18. Worth a read!
