Hours after, 'celebrity', Sue Perkuns,. recmoms she was also diagnosed with similar symptoms a few years ago. I remon it'll be Divina McColl or Amanda Holden next? Hmm? A new year, a new 'syndrome / condition those how are looking to' claim a genuine medical condition will try their luck. Are people exempt from being diagnosed late in life if they happen to be celebrities? A lot of people are diagnosed/identified as being autistic late in life, me being one of them- is that not permitted if they happen to be a celebrity? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they think if they come out with their diagnosis it might help others. I don't think they're trying to profit or garner sympathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called "How can I make myself relevant again" Minor celebs that are no longer in public eye and bored without the fame and attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattricia Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Have you noticed how a lot of men are dying their hair jet black ? Ok, they may be grey underneath and wanting to look younger, but why not dye it brown ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Vegas and Sue Perkins have been on the radio/TV a lot over the past few years. I hardly say they were out of the public eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the media's obsession with calling people "stars & celebrities" such as those on programmes like Gogglebox that annoys me, what have they done that merits being called a celebrity or a star.
