In a sad attempt to outdo his fellow has-been rivals, Chris de Burgh has bought the alien that burst out of John Hurt’s chest in the 1979 terror-thriller, erm, Alien, according to the Belfast Telegraph and about 30,000 other news agencies. Fellow crooner and sad-case HoJo is said to be quietly considering his career options today, after de Burgh bought the hideous prop at auction for a paltry $EU29,875 ($AU45,000), a figure said to represent the crooner’s actual worth. Further, de Burgh, whose daughter Rosanna Davison somehow won the title of Miss World 2003, had the gall to state: “I know [Nik Kershaw] very well, and of course I will give him [a five finger salute] being [a] mother [procreator].” Strangely, no mention of this absurd series of events is made on the appallingly designed Official Chris de Burgh website. Meanwhile pop-handthrob Stung is, understandably, seething. Seething.
Have your say!
