Quincy Jones
Owned 900 Nokia phones,
44 dinosaur bones,
6 copies of Attack of the Clones
And 17 rusty trombones.
Why?
Who cares,
It’s Quincy Jones.

Emile Hirsch
Felt worse and worse
Every minute
After almost
Being hit by a hearse.

Danny Jones
Liked to pretend his dad was Davy Jones.
He’d make jokes like:
“He doesn’t have a wardrobe…
He keeps his clothes in a locker.”
Ha! Ha! Ha!
It was harmless fun, really,
But mainly it helped distract people
From the fact he was
One of those bastards from McFly.

Johnny Knoxville
Fell ill with chickenpox.
His arms and legs
And face and head
Were all absolutely
Covered in dots.
He joined them up for a laugh
Using a good mate’s pen,
Which turned out to be permanent,
Oh he hated his “friends”.

Chuck Norris
Had a tiring day
So snuggled up in bed
With a hot water bottle.
I mean,
He was seventy-bloody-nine
For Christ’s sake.

Oscar Isaac
Spent the day
Introducing himself
As Isaac Oscar,
The cheeky little idiot!

Things were looking up
For Freddie Prinze Jr.,
Sinze he’d last be seen in feature films.
He’d moved to a secret Provinze,
Ate nothing but minze pies with quinze
And was best mates with ex-footballer Paul Inze.
I’d love to tell you how
This all came about
But his methods would only make you winze.
