Joan Cusack
Loved her spice rack.
It had turmeric and paprika,
Cumin and garam masala.
It had cinnamon, pepper,
Both chilli and curry powder.
It had every single kind of spice,
It was truly special and truly nice.
But it was the rack itself
Joan Cusack loved the most.
It was dark and rich and made of oak.
And in truth, she was more of a herb gal.

Mario Lopez
Changed his name to
Lario Mopez.
No-one really noticed.

Chris O’Dowd
Was oh so proud
He could hear himself
Over the loud crowd.
‘Cos, well… it was loud.

Bruno Mars
Sold his cars
And decided to always get the bus.
Luckily he had “one of those faces”,
So was never noticed
And experienced no selfie fuss.
(Until he started singing, of course,
Which he did on every route,
Because, well, needs must.)

Simon Cowell
Couldn’t find his towel
So pulled his trousers up,
As high as he could,
To dry his tummy with them.
And that’s where his whole
High waisted trouser thing came from.
Yep.

Jeremy Sisto
Opened a bistro.
He called it:
“Sisto’s Bisto.”
He thought dropping the R was clever.
But in fact it just made the gravy company
Sue him for all he was worth.

Jemima woke up inside a poem.
It was exactly as she imagined.
The weather reflected her mood.
Trees sang and the sun actually hugged her.
Every step told a story.
The dead were alive.
Pain was a person.
Every single thing was something else.
It was RUBBISH.

Kate Winslet
Bought a singlet
And trained to be a professional wrestler.
She called herself The Iceberg,
Turned out be hard as nails
And soon became champion of the world.
