Celebrity Fans

Heli · 08 Jul 2004, 17:59

I wonder if Meat has any celebrity fans, and if so (which he proberbly does) then who....

....maybe we have a closet celebrity on here..............

I know the lead singer of Wheatus is a fan. That's the only reason he turned up for Party in the Park last year, to see Meat!!!!!

Jack Dee drove in a queue lasting 3 hours with his wife to see Meat at Wembley on 18th Nov, and we all know what happened there! Russell Crowe too may count, cos on Parkinson he said he played Eddie and Dr Scott in the Sydney production of RHPS, and mentioned Meat had played the roles originally. Princess Diana, too, seen him a couple of times. Does anyone else think she was flirting with him when she met him and said "I'm hungry!"

I know Jack Black is a fan.
He invited Meat to the movie premier of School Of Rock.(unfortunatly it was a night Meat was doing a concert).

It would be interesting to know if any celebrities (other than the band

)visited here

RSG · 08 Jul 2004, 21:36

these people all rock! Especially Jack Black

Bernhard Hoecker, a German comedian is a Meat Loaf fan. I think the Germans here know him from "Genial daneben".

meatwka · 08 Jul 2004, 22:14

OK, time to own up, im Lee Evans (if you can count me as a celebrity?!)

Sorry for not admitting it before!!

Dutch writer Harry Mullisch ("The Discovery Of Heaven", "The Assault") has said on various occasions that "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" is the only pop-song he appreciates. That does not make him a fan, but I thought I'd mention it.

Top author Terry Pratchett is pretty heavily influenced by Meat and Jims work, many of his books include an obscure reference somewhere along the line, and I'm sure I remember reading an interview with him once when he admitted as much.

needmoremeat · 09 Jul 2004, 20:31

I could have met Terry Pratchett in Ottakars, but nooooooo, I had to go and see my two nephews instead!!!!!!!!

Chris · 09 Jul 2004, 20:36

the UK politician William Hague (former leader of the Conservative party)

Also Bill Stewart who used to present 15-to-1 says he has been known to enjoy the odd Meat song!

LucyK! · 09 Jul 2004, 20:49

I have to admit having a bit of a thing for Jack Black in School Of Rock, he's just got that certain Meaty something!

I was thrilled to find out that the legend that is Jon Bon Jovi is a fan! He's my other love in life!

Steinfan1978 · 13 Jul 2004, 10:06

Klasien

ChoccyBat · 24 Jul 2004, 02:11

Not quite. She was singing IWDAFL in a summer camp thing and got spotted

Alice · 24 Jul 2004, 19:40

I'm a fan and I have a band

But I'm afraid I'm not a celebrity yet

airhead · 25 Jul 2004, 10:49

I'll be famous one day.. does that mean i'm a closet celebrity?

Shadows On The Wall · 26 Jul 2004, 09:05

Heli · 26 Jul 2004, 12:41

What happened with Meat and Jack Dee??

Shadows On The Wall · 27 Jul 2004, 08:59

yes, hmm that came out wrong lol, u kno what i meant

needmoremeat · 29 Jul 2004, 07:57

Nothing happened between Meat and Jack Dee!!!!!!! 18th Nov was the one when he collapsed, and JD and his wife had been one of many who sat in a huge traffic queue and 3 hour journey to get to that concert to see it!!!!! Sorry if it sounded like it meant something else!!!!

*AndyK* · 05 Dec 2005, 09:52

ANother celebrity fan climbedout of the closet at the weekend ...

Dermot O'Leary - star of Big Brothers Little Brother and Radio 2 DJ claimed at the weekend that "Meat Loaf is the best singer in the world and when he sings the songs from the worlds best songwriter Jim Steinman no one can better him"

Leah · 06 Dec 2005, 20:53

Hmmm I thought I spotted in the audience of the WTTN live show (that was televised) Rosanne. I'm sure it was her, did anyone else spot her? She was stood up (at the front row) when Meat was going into "Not a dry eye" I think!! Anyone else agree?!

SuperLoafMan · 06 Dec 2005, 21:02

Not sure on resources but pretty sure Peter Kay is a fan
