The bizarrest indie celebrity spot OF ALL TIME

joeydubya [Edit] [Delete] 10:45, 5 January '09

So I spent New Year's Eve in Derby, and travelled back on the Sheffield - St Pancras train home to Leicester. When were about to alight, I spot a familiar face in standard class, the kitchen sink estwhile indie hero; Mr Jarvis Cocker. 'Wow' I think to myself. He's sitting pensively, hand resting on his chin, staring at his young female friend's laptop. I'm not really in the mood to bother him, but intrigue brings me to glance at the laptop and see what they're watching....

Lizards with small heads?

Big breasted woman with a diamond in her cleavage?

No way.

No fing way....

They're watching Super Mario Brothers the movie, with Bob Hoskins and Dennis Hopper!

Then, as I look closer... his female friend has headphones in... so he's not getting any of the dialogue.

So; Jarvis Cocker - Standard Class (Different Class) - Watching Super Mario Brothers

In silence.
