I recentley went to my girlfriends grandparents 40th anniversary on a paddle staemer called the ‘Waverley’ which sailed from Tower Bridge. Now her grandparents are fairly famous on British TV and know a lot of actors who were invited to the party, so i’m at the bar ordering a drink when I feel someone groping my ass. I turn around and who should it be? Only Ian Mckellin the guy who plays Gandalf! I have to say i’m pretty chuffed with my new claim to fame…and if I ever split up with my girlfriend and turn gay then i’m sorted. Anyone else have any bizarre stories involving sexual harassment from celebrities? ---

Who knows? ---

i once told the guy who played Corky on Life Goes On (forget the actor’s name) where the bathroom was. Wasn’t sexual as far as I know. Incidentally, he’s not a very good public speaker. ---

That’s about as good a claim to fame as a buttock can have. ---

Christian Slater winked at Mrs. Zebra once. She was walking down the street. (in NYC) and she saw him and did a double take. He shot wink at her and gave his (what I’m sure was) an extremely cheesy grin. So I think he sexually harrassed my wife. She just thought it was cool. ---

WILLASS, was it a classy goosing, like an ass grabbing you’d give the queen, or was it a dirty goose, like you’d get from Courtney Love? ---

My brother’s English teacher was once felt up by Allan Ginsburg. And wasn’t there a poster around here whose boyfriend was cruised by Svend Robinson? ---

Oh, and I forgot to add that once I asked my friend Scotty if he liked Rufus Wainwright. He looked disgusted and said no. I asked why not, and he said “Because he keeps cruising me at Unity!” :eek: _send him to me!!!??!_ ---
