The Streets - help me!

:biggrin: The Streets - When you wasnt famous:biggrin: !

Who is this song about? Its been winding me up as i really want to know! Any ideas? The lyrics are below which give some clues:confused::

You were so much fun, I really got to like you more than you liked me,
I really hoped that you'd stay.
Considering the amount of prang you'd done, you looked amazing on cd:uk.
You learn dances, do promo, cameras flashing, get in the van, zoom away (reeeoow).
I wake up high, (unknown) feel hung over and sorry for my doomed day.

But I know I got a bit close to you, and that you found it *****ing boring.
You taught me so much about how to deal with the (unknown).
And what version of a rumour would be next day everyone's story of me.
You taught me all the realities and “turn the page & ignore ‘em”.

I really don't think any of The Street's songs have any serious point to them.
Apparently it is one of Girls Aloud... I heard it on the radio the other day.. but I can't remember which one.. .maybe Cheryl? I dont know which one is which anyway!!

Edit: I have just googled.. and even wikipedia mentions it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Streets - mentions of Cheryl Tweedy and Rachel Stevens... of course they have both denied it but there you go!

it could be anyone who has been on CD:u:K.

i just searched.. and all it says is a 'celebrity girl'.. could be anyone.

Rachel Stevens and the whole of Girls Aloud have been ruled out, I believe. By Mike Skinner himself.

Holly Wiloughby ain't it?! :confused:

Well shes in the video, but i suppose that would be a bit of a give-away if it was her.

MAybe Cat Deeley. Holly Did CD:u:K for a bit?! :confused:

Awww, I don't want it to be about Holly, she seems so lovely. :p:
Tweedy (I thought she was racist) goes out with Ashley Cole.

I LOVE Holly Willoughby so much, I read this interview where she said she'd be lucky to go out with someone like Jack Osbourne...wtf is that about?

Holly would get it... thats for sure... :smile:

I bet that punk Stephen is doing her, he's such a knob...beyond belief!!
Stephen is gay.

Well come on, he must be.

So why did Mike Skinner rule the whole of Girls Aloud out? He's given us plenty of information; he might as well go the whole way and give us a name. :p:

^ Mystery Solved :rolleyes:


Im still convinced that its between Holly Wiloughby or Fearne Cotton or Cat Dealey....

Might rule fearne out though, as shes already primarily engaged, fo shizzle..

Would be funny if it was someone like Lady Sov.. but it won't be someone like that.. :biggrin:
