Dirty Harry

We yield to no man in our admiration for and love of Debbie Harry, but we're a little worried by her reaction to British Airways losing her luggage:

"I've been wandering around in dirty pants for five days. I'm going to have to go to M&S to buy some new ones. I'm not happy."

We're alarmed that it's not until she's tried backwards, forwards and inside-out that she finally breaks and decides to invest a couple of pounds in a second pair of knickers. And doesn't she have access to a sink in her hotel room?

Debbie Harry's charmed life

As if the story of surviving one maniac - Ted Bundy - wasn't enough, now it turns out Debbie Harry also has a tale about coming face-to-face with not convicted of any crime as of this moment gun love Phil Spector:

"He pulled a gun, that notorious thing he does. He stuck it in my boot. And he went 'Bang.'

I thought, 'Get me out of here! I want to go home!'

It's his schtick, you know but why a person would be walking around carrying a .45 automatic in their home... and now he's finally gone and done it."

Or maybe not, depending on what the jury thinks. Let's hope Debbie doesn't now find herself besieged by bloodthirsty NRA gunophiles explaining that if everyone walked around their homes carrying 45s, then Pearl Harbour would never have happened, or some equally guff-like guff.
