Costliest pluck ever
Since 60-year-old women throwing underwear at you on stage isn’t embarrassing enough, Tom Jones decided to take it a step further. He’s gone and insured his chest hair for 7 million dollars! SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS!
Are you kidding me?! I know guys that spend millions of dollars trying to keep that fuzz off their chest and he thinks his is worth 7 mil? Apparently the Lords of London guys do too cause their insuring him. I’d like to know if they’re going to pay up when he’s 90 and every hair on his body is in the shower drain!
In doing some research (because I’m a very thorough kind of gal), I found that he’s Welch and hasn’t always been hairy. See?…
Also according to this website, the Welsh can’t stand him:
“The Welsh actually hate Tom Jones with a passion. Although singing is a national pass time in Wales, most think that Tom ditched his roots when he turned his back on singing down the coal mines and changing his coal clad overals for his tight suits and sex symbol status.
As a result Tom had to move to America where he could sniff all the underwear thrown at him during his shows in peace without having coal thrown through his windows. Tom did try to build bridges with the Welsh 10 years ago by agreeing to do a gig down a coal mine for the miners, but his voice was so powerful that it caused the mine to cave in over the audience.”
Wow…that is so hot.
P.S. I hear through the Ozark rumor mill that Bön Jovi will be in Kansas City April 17th and 20th!! I think the 20th is sold out but there might be tickets available on the 17th.…HELLO!!!!!!!!
What’s New Pussycat? Woah woah woah woah.….

If I insured the hair on my legs would that mean I would have to shave any more?
Ugh, I kind of grossed myself out with that one.
I think I’ll change my ring tone back to Livin’ On A Prayer! I gonna go buy a pack of lighters!
BTW, the library e-mailed me. Your birthday not-really-a-gift is due back tomorrow (Sat.)!
I saw that story on the news too and didn’t get it. Aren’t all the rock stars and wannabes waxing their chests? Personally I like a happy medium, a couple hairs but not baby smooth. Tom doesn’t do it for me.
Yeah well — we’ve checked… the Bön Jovi tickets… EX Pen SIVE!
I saw that about Tom Jones and had to scratch my head. Fading ‘sexy’ star did what?????
As for Bön Jovi, totally do it if you can swing it!!!
I second D’s opinion — Bön Jovi WILL be worth it! Chris Daughtry is opening for him! I’m tellin’ ya, when D and I get back from our Bön Jovi Road Trip we are gonna have PRICELESS stories to tell!
Our tickets weren’t that expensive — because we’re sitting on the roof. But hey, we’ll be there! Maybe we’ll throw our panties at him.…
Hola Jen, I am here again..how are u? hope you all are fine. God bless you!
Oh, I so need to see Bön Jovi. Especially since Daughtry is opening.…. Off to go troll tickets and see if he’s near me.
