Gok Wan and Liam Gallagher mates?

Friday, May 29th, 2009

I don’t know about you but I was pretty surprised to hear Liam Gallagher name drop Gok Wan in this interview context (Liam is talking about his clothing line, Pretty Green):

`With Pretty Green, it’s all about my personal tastes. I’m not trying to make a massive statement about men’s fashion and I’m definitely not gonna appear on TV with Gok Wan. I know Gok Wan pretty well, he’s alright. I know him through the missus. But I won’t be appearing on his show. Or Lorraine Kelly’s. No chance.”

Liam Gallagher knows Gok Wan pretty well? How strange! Now that is two people I would never have put together!

Mind you, as per my last post, Gok Wan does apparently have a footie and Top Gear loving side so maybe it does all make sense!

New Gok Wan interview

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

Gok Wan’s been over in New Zealand recently and, as well as confessing his love for a NZ TV weatherman he also did this interview.

It’s well worth a read for avid Gok Wan fans.

Highlights for me:

  • Touching Gok Wan’s hair is a bit like touching a brillo pad
  • He has a blokey Top Gear and football loving side
  • He really does fancy Tony Blair. I won’t repeat what he said - you’ll have to read the article!

Cilla gets a lorra style advice from Gok Wan!

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Gok clearly had his work cut out during recent filming for Fashion Fix with celebrity guest Cilla Black.

In his show Gok Wan advocates getting designer style outfits without the designer price tags by savvy shopping on the high street. Yet Cilla confessed to flying over to America just to buy jeans! Not exactly credit crunch shopping.

Trust Gok to sum it up in true Gok Wan style:

 ”Basically that’s about £5,200 for one pair of jeans. You’ve got the most expensive arse in the industry!” 

Remember, one of the best ways to make your clothes look good and give old outfits a new lease of life is to invest in good underwear.

Try the Gok Wan Curve Controller bodyshaper for an all over great shape that’s comfy enough to wear every day.

And yes, Gok Wan did manage to get Cilla into a pair of high street jeans - of course!
