NO! Not the biscuit tin! - Smash Hits
1994
The rules: In the biscuit tin there are 100 envelopes. Each
contains a
horribly difficult question. You must open 20 envelopes at random
and
answer the question inside. You can pass on only one. Good
Luck!
Why is your best friend your best friend?
Because he forgives me for the things I do. He has quite a lot of
work to
do. We've been friends for about seven years.
Who's best, Zig or Zag?
I have to admit I can't really tell the difference. I think
they're great
though, very funny. I'll be going on the bed with Paula soon, so
I'll be
able to find out a bit more then.
How do you know when you're in love?
You lose your appetite and you stare into someone's eyes a
lot.
Did you fancy a teacher?
I used to fancy quite a few of the teachers at my grammer school.
There was
one, our PE teacher, who used to pick me out to do handstands. I
didn't wear
any knickers under my shorts and he would look down them while I
did the
handstands. I knew what he was up to. I was about 15 and he
wanted me to do
body-building with him after school, but I didn't.
What colour underwear are you wearing?
White. I have quite a selection, but I went for white ones today.
I buy a
lot of underwear - wherever we are in the world I usually buy a
pair.
What is the most embarrassing photo of you in existence?
I remember one I did for Smash Hits a few years ago when I was
dressed up as
Judy Garland and draped across a piano. That was quite
embarrassing!.
Who is your worst enemy?
I really don't know. I hope I haven't got too many.
Do you think Kate Moss is too thin?
Yes. I think it's worrying that she's a role model for teenage
girls. Do I
think she's attractive?. Well, I can't remember what she looks
like so she
can't be that attractive, can she?.
What were you like when you were 12?
I was good at PE and very flirtatious. I had long hair and wore
my maroon
school uniform most of the time. I was quite young looking, but I
wasn't
bullied.
Do you ever wear other people's clothes?
Yes. Sometimes, if I borrow things and I like them, I keep them
if the
person lets me. Me and Paul are the same size so we share each
other's
clothes a lot.
Have you ever been lost in New York?
Yeah. It's usually after a night out and the best thing is just
to jump in a
cab. I quite like being lost, though. But it's not that easy to
get lost
there - unless you forget which way is up and which way is down.
The worst
place to get lost is Amsterdam. It's all a semi-circle and you
can't rely on
your sense of direction at all.
Why are Meat Loaf's songs so long?
He likes his epics doesn't he?. I think he fancies himself as a
bit of a
phantom of the opera. I don't like the new songs. I don't mind
the old
stuff, but I wouldn't buy it. I've never met him, but I'd like
to.
Do you fancy any other famous person?
Yeah, Keanu Reeves - no, River Pheonix, but he's not around any
more. And
the guy from that film Videodrome - James Woods. He's quite rough
looking. I
like Debbie Harry too. The first famous person I fancied when I
was young
was Donny Osmond.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Neither. I dunno, feathers?
How many pairs of pants do you own?
About 200. I haven't counted them all, but there are drawers full
of them.
Drawers full of drawers!. My favourite pair are the ones I bought
in
Amsterdam. They're quite loose fitting - they're not Calvin
Kleins, but they
do make you look quite good.
Where is the strangest place you've had sex?
Er, in a toilet. Quite a while ago. Or on the kitchen floor.
With
margerine!.
Have you ever cheated on a boy/girlfriend?
Yes. I used not to feel bad about it, but I feel guilty now so I
don't do
it. Actually, I still do do it, but I try not to fall in
love with people. I
always tell Paul when I've been unfaithful. It goes down alright
as long as
I don't see them more than once - or unless it's cool and I make
friends
with them but stop seeing them seriously. It's when you keep it
secret that
it becomes a problem.
What do you talk about with your hairdresser?
Trivia mostly. All sorts of things. He does quite a bit of work
for AIDS so
we talk about that, too. The rest of it is about holidays and
stuff. He's
been my hairdresser for six years, and I usually ask for
something
different, then about a week later cut it all off and go back to
my normal
style!.
Have you ever played spin the bottle?
Yeah. It was probably in a squat somewhere absolutely ages ago. I
can't
remember how it went, though.
What makes the wind blow?
The wind!.
