Something about being found out with cannabis plants. But one wonders how much is true, or is the intention to shock deliberately, to endorse the image of the new 'bad boy' of popular music. No longer an item with Holly Vallance. Still lives with his grandma in Thornton Heath - and has turned his bedroom into a recording studio.

It's a catchy song, but he narrowly misses being run over by a bus in the video!

Anyone else see him on GMTV this morning? (I was doing the ironing not being lazy!) I thought he came across quite well and wish him success.

There was quite a big write up about him in the entertainment section of last Fridays "Daily Snail ".
Must admit it's all a bit too modern for me.
Did anyone watch Goldie's composition played in the Albert Hall on television last week ? I found it modern classic and wonderful !

AFAIK, Vincent was at CH for all 7 years so was never expelled from 4 boarding schools...
According to his wikipedia entry, Holly Vallance dumped him by email... nice!

not very cool to be a good boy at school though, is it?

Yes it was indeed excellent. Interesting article in the Times about him and the manner in which he composed said piece.

When youngest daughters ex-partner was in St Peters Hospital, Chertsey, Goldie was in the same ward. My opportunity to meet and have a long chat with the absolutely bewitching and charming Baby Spice , aka, Emma Bunton who was visiting the maestro.

You`d know him as Vince Turner.And no he wasn`t expelled - made it to Grecians and became a monitor if I remember correctly!
