Blue's
Blunders

How much trouble can four fit, superstar lads get into? Er, lots!

Jokes on Janet
Last year, our record label held a party and my idol, Janet Jackson,
was there. I finally managed to pluck up the courage to talk to her
but instead of introducing myself normally, blurted out, 'I've got
you above my bed.' She looked at me really strangely and walked away.
I didn't get a chance to tell her that what I meant was that I had a
poster of her at home!

Tan trauma
We shot our You Make Me Wanna video in South Africa. I'm milk-bottle
white so decided to get a St Tropez tan done the day before so I
didn't glow in the dark. Next day, I woke up to discover all these
patchy orange bits all over my body. In the end, I had to cover up
when all the others took their tops off. Gutting!
Duncan.

Bum deal
I was having a shower after performing at CD:UK and thought I had the
bathroom to myself. I was singing away really loudly, so you can
imagine my shock when I stepped out of the shower, butt-naked, to
discover there were loads of other bands in there too!

Tummy trouble
On the first day of filming The Truth About Love (out next
Valentine's Day), I didn't eat breakfast cos that day I was gonna be
acting with Jennifer Love-Hewitt and I was really nervous. Big mistake, cos as I went to say my first line, my stomach made a huge
growling noise and everyone heard!

Mufti muck-up
I was half an hour late for school assembly in Year 8, and as I crept
into the hall, everyone turned to look at me, laughing. I soon
realised why - I was the only one in uniform. It was mufti day and
dumb Dunc had totally forgotten. D'oh!
Duncan.

PE prank
One afternoon, me and my mate were getting changed for football, when
my mate dared me to sneak into the PE store. Thinking it was an easy
challenge I flung the door open. I got the shock of my life to
discover my teachers, Mr Dewitt and Miss Day, snogging! It should've
been them who were embarrassed but I turned beetroot red. And I got
detention! So unfair!
Lee.

Slippery snog
When I was 15, my mate and I took our girlfriends to the Ackers Trust
(giant leisure centre) in Birmingham. We were snogging our
girlfriends under the indoor ski slope when suddenly we heard voices.
The ski instructors had seen us on CCTV and we were out of bounds! We
tried to leg it through the fence but they caught us and gave us a
right ear-bashing!
Simon.

Big breaths
I went out for a Spanish meal with Dunc and ordered garlic prawns
which were delicious. Later we went on to a club and I was totally
getting in there with this girl when I let out an enormous burp. It
absolutely stank and the girl couldn't get away quick enough!
Lee.

Class clown
I was daydreaming in science when my teacher asked me a question. I'd
no idea what the answer was, so I shrugged my shoulders. Next thing I
knew, he'd plonked this huge dunce hat on my head. I felt really
stupid and had to wear it all lesson. Totally gutted!
