Everyone once in a while one of us here does something that gets into the paper, and the saying ‘World famous in Phuket’ gets thrown around, but last weekend things did get a little ‘world famous’.
It started off with Boy George. When you here that someone as famous as Boy George is in town, you don’t miss out. We don’t get a lot of celebrity action here, and the chance to see an aging celebrity is an opportunity not to be missed. Thing is, he isn’t doing the singing thing anymore. Now he’s a DJ, but that wasn’t going to deter anyone. Surely there were elements of the old Boy George to be seen. That trademark hat and eyeliner – surely that never gets old? Correct! He didn’t disappoint, showing up in 3/4 pants, hat and fabulous shimmering eyeliner. He may be a little big bigger and had more surgery, but he was still Boy George! He didn’t start playing till 1am but he was worth the wait, especially after Angela got to have a slight brush with fame. While dancing in front of his DJ table, the man himself looked up and her and said…’Get your drink away from my deck.’ Hahaha!
Messing around waiting for the man himself…he didn’t start till 1am!
My friend Claire interviewing him!!
After being star struck on Friday night we had planned Saturday night on the beach at one of the coolest places – Skyla’s. We watched the rugby (All Blacks won) and upon looking up from the game I see Elvis, dressed in his white lycra finest, dancing away to Blue Suede Shoes. Elvis is alive, and living in Kamala! Apparently Elvis had Thai parents and had amended some of the words to his songs, but still! All those people still looking for him, you can now see him most nights at the new ‘Elvis Rock and Roll’ bar in town.
He’s alive!
