I officially am feeling old tonight!! Because...
« on: October 29, 2011, 20:38:40 PM »
My son and his fiance had dinner with us this evening and we were speaking about Strictly Come Dancing.  They are not watching it. I mentioned to my son's fiance, Gemma,  that Lulu was in it.  As Gemma comes from Glasgow I thought it relevant.  She looked at me in a puzzled way.  I asked her had she heard of Lulu.  "Yes" she said, "Is she a country and Western Singer"  So, Gemma has never heard of Lulu.. Now I am feeling old.  Gemma's age.. twenty six :(

I think Lulu's relevance to Glasgow is probably what's causing the problem of identification.  She left Glasgow at 15 and has been a London centric / USA wannabee person ever since.  Even the Glasgow accent has been replaced by a mid atlantic creation.

Agree, Usedbustickets. Think she's a bit of a phoney and a wee show off to boot!
