there's a good point!!

[DemonHorse]

then again she kept drinking and partying when she was first pregnant so a dumbass move like that shouldn't surprise me. Look what it did to her poor kid though.

Is that true, or are you assuming? There's a lot of things can go wrong with a pregnancy which don't have anything to do with the lifestyle of the mother - and thats even before you get to the genetic possibilities. But is Harvey's condition down to Katie's behaviour?

I'm sure there was a news report where doctors had actually attributed Harvey's condition 'mostly' to her continued partying etc.

Bex does also make a good point. When it comes to publicity, Jordan (or if not her, probably her agent) are smarter than this.

[Ballbag]

I think he absolutely did the right thing, but a cynical part of me worries that Jordan and her "people" pulled this whole stunt on purpose, knowing how much publicity Gest got when he didn't turn up.

Ooooh you're making dangerous accusations there. But I totally agree. The ammount of publicity she'll get for not turning up will be MUCH greater than if she'd turned up. Her book was mentioned on the show alot today and so achieved her aim, and now it'll be in all of the papers tomorrow.
It wouldn't surprise me if it was a collaboration between Moyles and Jordan. Afterall his show will be in all of the papers tomorrow as well, not that I'm suggesting anything of the sort actually goes on of course.

[claradooblue]

I'm not sure about that. They might have pulled that stunt if they felt that Katie Price was going to let herself down/embarress herself on Chris' show. However, she's shown before that she comes across quite well. So publicity from appearing would probably be better for her than the publicity of not appearing.

[foot-loose]

While you may be tight* BFB, the other side of the coin would be that if Moyles wasn't in on it, he might be a bit peed off if he thought he was being used like that without knowing about it. She could jepordise getting on his show again?



*that is meant to say "right" but I didn't correct myself coz it made me smile.

[Ballbag]

I wouldn't say that there's no such thing as bad publicity, but you do have to go very far to acheive it (Jade, Jo and Danielle Lloyd etc etc) but even that can be spun into something good. This whole shi-bang will work out very well for Jordan, and indeed Chris Moyles........ everyone wins.

[Yudster]

To summarise - Bag for Balls said Moyles and Jordan pulled a publicity stunt.

[Vivienne]

I'm often surprised Jordan would fit into any radio studio.

[MK Chris]

I like your hair too Topher.

Thanks, but isn't this in the wrong thread?

[Ballbag]

No he didn't, they don't exist. He merely implied that it could happen, obviously there's the possibility, but they never happen.

[Vivienne]

I don't like your hair

[Yudster]

It was reciprocal niceness. And its never inappropriate to admire someone's hair. Unless its horrible, of course.

[MK Chris]

Ah in which case - thanks!

Katie and her manager have commented on it.

Good on him though.

Can’t believe I’m defending Jordan of all people but this is just not true. Harvey was born with a condition called septo-optic dysplasia which basically means that he was born blind. He has the more severe form which also includes mental retardation and pituitary gland malfunction (explains his unusually large size). There’s no know cause of septo-optic dysplasia - both healthy and unhealthy mothers have given birth to babies with the condition. It’s basically a random birth defect.

[Ballbag]

Hmmm, favourable mentions for both Chris and Jordan already in the papers? Now if only they'd planned this.

and already I find a problem with the very first sentence

RADIO One star CHRIS MOYLES launched a furious on-air attack on JORDAN this morning - and banned her from his show for being late.

Wrong, just didn't let her on THIS show. I'm sure Moyles said a few times she's NOT banned, Idiot.

[timp]

That story in the Sun makes me feel so angry and it proves the worthlessness of the Sun in general.

[Yudster]

I liked the made-up "comments from readers" underneath.

[timp]

Dont get me started Yudster! Demonhorse the first mistake comes before the one you spotted 'the furious attack on Jordan' was actually on her PR. And then it goes on....

[DemonHorse]

hmmm that's a VERY good point Timp. Guess we were both obviously listening more closely than that hack at the Sun though.

I reckon Chris is right!

Katie was only 15 minutes late for the show

Rubbish. Try half an hour.
