I'm A Celebrity - sort of...

Just when you thought the assault on your eyes had come to an end, here's Matt Willis, looking like Mark Chapman and David Gest, looking like a red testicle, with matching hair styles at an auction in Newcastle yesterday...

Gest was auctioning unwanted personal gifts (we shudder to think what they could be) with special guest Willis to raise money for the Northern branch of the Variety Club.

Guests were treated to a preview Gest’s musical My Life! A Musical Concert Extravaganza (the lucky bastards) before the auctioning of his memorabilia, including signed posters by Cher and the Four Tops and Michael Jackson dolls.

Organisers estimated Gest made £50,000 for the charity and the chairman of the Variety Club Northern region said:

“We raise money to help improve the quality of life of disabled and disadvantaged children in the region and we’re being helped by David Gest tonight. He provided the cabaret, he also provided auction items, and he also auctioned all the memorabilia, including Michael Jackson items and various other items he was able to bring.

 

“We’re extremely grateful to the support David has shown us and we wish him all the best with his live shows. I’m sure they will be fantastic.”

 

So we'll stop taking the piss now...

  • It's a bit extreme to auction off your unwanted personal gifts. Why can't he do what the rest of us do: put them in the back of the cupboard until ten minutes before the gift-giver comes for a visit, then display them proudly on the mantle?

  • Poor old David Gest. He's always looked fucked but didn't he used to be somebody? How come he's now clinging to the likes of Matt Willis? Get a job Dave. What about the theatre? I'm sure they'll take you on a cleaner.
