Hayley Ellis: Stop Showing Off In Front Of Your Mates
Once upon a time, Hayley Ellis was in a girlband. She had it all, a fringe full of inset hairspray, a lace glove and a dream. It was the 90s and she was sure her band was going to be the next big thing.
Fast forward some years later, the fringe has flopped and the only gloves she wears is an oven mitt.
But what if she’d made it? Who would she be today? A well-adjusted mum who invested wisely and does the school run? A wellness guru flogging labia flavoured incense sticks? Or a washed-up has been calling the paps every time she goes to the Tesco just so she can scream “Why won’t you people let me live my life!?”
Join ex-popstar Hayley for an hour of joyous retrospection on body image, Smash Hits
magazine and an indoor skydiving debacle that’ll convince you some dreams are better left in the past. An hour of so-tragic-it’s-funny nostalgia, from your favourite no-singing, no-dancing funny girl.
