23 TAKE THAT
Let me take you back to 1990. I'm sitting in a rusty old van with five eager young men on our way to a photo shoot, and they're bombarding me with questions about the famous people I know.
'Can't believe you know Paul McCartney!' one sighed, in awed admiration. 'Maybe you guys will one day,' I replied.
And they all shook their heads in disbelief at the very idea of such a thing. I helped them have their first hit record, wrote their first two official books and have stayed friendly with four of them at least. And in December I sat at home watching their TV special, and saw them larking about with Paul McCartney.
Take That have come a long, long way. And their comeback is one of the best deserved in showbusiness history.
Oozing with longevity and likeability: Manband Take That
Real power in the music business is achieved by longevity and likeability.
Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason have both, in spades. I hung out with them in LA last summer, and unlike so many of their contemporaries, they really hadn't changed a bit, were truly grateful for the second chance they'd been given and were loving every minute of it. And I couldn't be happier for them.
