Jamie: Celebrity's a dirty word now

Jamie Theakston has admitted he finds the celebrity circuit "a bit tawdry" these days.

The TV and radio host found fame presenting programmes from Top Of The Pops to Live And Kicking and dated a string of glamorous girlfriends including Joely Richardson, Nicole Appleton and Erin O'Connor.

But the 41-year-old, now a married father-of-two, said he thinks things have changed in the world of celebrity.

He said: "I think the nature of celebrity has changed a lot, it seems to me that it's not really something that people want to have. It used to be slightly different, and I think it was more celebrated years ago. It was exciting or it seemed to be then. I used to host film premieres and interview people as they came in, and everyone who was anyone would turn up, and every single person was a famous celebrity.

"Now it's a bit tawdry. Celebrities don't really go to those things any more. I think 'celebrity' has become a bit of a dirty word because of the way the nature of fame has changed. I don't think people want to be a celebrity."

He added: "Perhaps it's partly down to the way people in the public eye are reported on. It's the focus on the trivia and I find it extraordinary how all those magazines make headlines out of who's fat and who isn't and every personal defect or unguarded moment such as when someone's out without make-up!"

Talking about his own career, Jamie said everything "has happened more by luck than design" and that he can look back with no regrets.

"I've been able to have the best of both worlds. My twenties were a great, fun time, it was an exciting time, and in my thirties I was able to travel the world for various TV shows," he said.

"I don't think I've ever had much negative press, I think I've been quite lucky.

"Now, in my forties, I have two wonderful children and a wife, so I don't think I would have written the script to my life any differently."

LAST WORD: Everyone is to blame for the mess but Pule

THAT Dina Pule, shes a card, isnt she? Its a relief to know that our communications minister loves a good conspiracy, involving covert companies, hidden agendas and spies. We havent had one of those since, well, Ms Manto Tshabalala-Msimang. Well, there was good old Thabo, with his pharmaceutical companies peddling poison theories, but hey, thats Thabo.

It turns out that, according to Pule, the reason this newspaper took her to task for the fact that her alleged boyfriend Phosane Mngqibisa made millions from things like the ICT Indaba, which her department helped organise, wasnt because we are investigating an issue in the public interest.

No, rather it is because a cabal of shady businessmen had ordered it, our handlers if you will, and they had somehow paid off all the journalists to do their bidding in the hope of winning tenders from Ms Pules department. Quite how this would work, well, no-one is any the wiser.

She was at it again at the New Age business breakfast this week, blaming the SABC and e.tv (such likely bedfellows, after all) for conspiring to delay the migration to digital television.

But again, she got the facts all mangled: it was actually Dina who intervened in the process and then, when she lost the case in court to e.tv, held up the process by threatening to appeal. Eventually, she quietly dropped that appeal.

But no matter, the message is clear: everyone else is responsible for what is going on but her.

This was the theme when Dina held a press conference this week. Not, as you might expect, to debunk the claims of nepotism against her. No, the goal was simply to launch an ad hominem attack on the journalists, me included.

My sin? Apparently I have close friends at telecoms companies, and they have friends who have business interests. Now, I dont have close friends at these firms, but I, like any journalist, do contact people from these companies to get the facts straight when writing a story.

For Pule, this sort of personal attack was an interesting gambit, especially if you reflect on the individuals who have launched personal attacks on journalists in the past, rather than addressing the issues.

There was Tigon, a company that went belly-up in 2002 after its CEO Gary Porritt was arrested for fraud. Porritts arrest was largely thanks to a series of articles run by the late, great financial journalist Deon Basson. At the time, Tigon saw fit to send out newsletters drawing attention to Bassons battle with bi-polar disorder, one entitled Deon Basson luminary or loony? Basson has since passed on, after a battle with Sharemax, but we all know who won that round.
