matty johns, ian thorpe had words at logies?

[knights 2004]

mate said he heard on the radio that they had words. matty said something about thorpies haircut or something (fair enough really) at the logies.

can anyone confirm?

Matt Johns as Matt Johns,Reg Reagan or Trent the flight steward?
Only a matter of time until he rubbed someone up the wrong way.

That hair cut was a shocker. If it's true Thorpie deserved it for going out in public like that.

Anyone putting shit on thorpe's cut is a champ IMO
it was a shocker, terrible form

loved the blokes who came up and said something along the lines of "and congrats to this room's biggest comedian - thorpeys hair dresser" :lol:

 

[RABK]

I'm guessing as Reg...it will probally be a segment for thursday night. Myabe it was staged and if not will channel 9 show it?

I know its off topic but does anyone remember Norman Gunston.
He did interviews not to dis-similar to Reg Reagan.
They were very funny but guys from overseas had no idea what he was on about.
There was a guy in New York/L.A. (some American City) he was interviewing who chased him up the street and wanted to kill him.
It looked really funny but apparently it was real.
Can anyone remember the guy?

Anyway always thought someone would be after Johns one day.

Hey, the bloke can swim, but I'm not a fan of him out of the pool. Fair dinkum... what sort of bloke advertises pearls??

[macavity]

[steaming stormer]

Sorry Raider, I misread your post. I thought you said anyone who hangs shit on Thorpe is a chump.

Sorry, my bad.

Don't recall that one, but I remember seeing Gunston ask Colonel Tom Parker (Elvis Presley's manager) about the 11 secret herbs and spices. The look on his face was priceless. One of the funniest things I've ever seen. :lol:

Gunston asked Paul McCartney how his fruit shop was going? (Apple)
McCartney loved him and invited him to all his shows.
Not everyone took Norman the right way though.

The band Kiss wasn't quite so forgiving.

lol. I remember that. I recall him looking at Linda and saying something like, "you don't look Japanese".

I actually had free tickets to one of McCartney shows at the Horden Pavillion. Norman Gunston was there and afterwards he was mobbed. I got his autograph but by comparison, very few were interested in getting backstage to get McCartney's autograph. For one night at least, Norman Gunston was bigger than the Beatles. lol

IMO, Reg doesnt come close.

 

[Foz]

I was at the Horden Pavillion Show too.
Norman was 2 seats in front of me.
Cant remember if it was Friday or Saturday night but they had these wrestlers carrying on out the front trying to sell their act to the crowd.
Captain Matchbox and The Whoopee band were the support act.

I reckon Reg tries to immitate Norman.
He even tries the singing career like Norman did.

Norman Gunstan, one of Wollongong's favourite sons!

If memory serves me correctly, it was Gunstons parody of "I was made for loving you" that got KISS virtually run out of the country by the religious right ("they are poisoning the minds of the youth with their satanic music!!!"), vowing never to return. They didn't come back for 20 or so years either.

Norman Gunston interviewing Guns and Roses at a press conference was priceless also. They loved him.

 

[Man_of_Steel_1982]

Thorpey has no sense of humour.

The Chaser guys made a joke about his hair on stage and today on Triple J they said he didn't show he could take a joke. At the after party one of them said "you can come on our show anytime" to which he replied "you've gotta be joking", and twirled around (hair swinging behind him was their description) and walked off.

Now even if you think it's stylish to have your hair like that, you've also gotta expect that people are gonna take the piss. Laugh along and play up to it and you're a champion, be personally insulted and you're a humourless wanker.

 

[Parraren]

Thorpe is bit of a joke (outside of the pool). He thinks he's some kind of fashion guru FFS :lol: Get over yourself Thorpie!
