[Humour] Inadvertent "Joke du Jour" From James Blunt.

[Jack Straw]

On BBC's Breakfast Show this morning, one of the guests was the singer James Blunt. The video for his latest song is him singing, sitting next to his Dad. Whilst detailing his relationship with his dad to Naga, he said,
"I looked up to him. He was a helicopter pilot."
Eat you heart out Milton Jones!

At the school drop off this morning one of the other dads asked me what year my daughter was in? I replied " 2020 you weirdo ".

He has quite a dry sense of humour so it might not have been as inadvertent as you think.

 

[B-right-on]

Have you seen some of his tweets. Hilarious at taking the pee out of himself and others.

Agree. And some of his put downs to people criticising him or his music are brilliantly funny and withering.

James Blunt, he's a.... very nice and amusing chap, by all accounts

 

[Wozza]

Blotted his copybook with his "I'm alright Jack" views on Brexit, sadly.

Seven posts on a comedy thread until BREXIT is raised, well done.

Agreed, but I've seen the footage on Twitter - it's definitely not intended as a joke (or actually said quite so concisely as above).

Maybe he’s just honest and doesn’t feel the need to be pc, an unusual and frowned upon trait these days it seems.

Sure gain some credit for being honest.

Lose a whole lot more by saying: Brexit just means more paperwork for my tour manager, I don't give a shit about anyone else.

 

[Grombleton]

Not a massive fan of his music, but he can be a very witty guy in the interviews and articles i've seen.

Saw him in concert at the Brighton Centre a while back. Very good, but took the pee out of himself. Also took it out on all the blokes who had been dragged down to watch him!

Milton Jones was on Soccer AM recently. Surprisingly skillful on crossbar challenge - he may have nailed it in one

Was officer in the army and commanded 1st tank into Kosovo

Nah, I've seen some of his tweets and find them a bit too 'look at me'. I think he's a tit and his music is shite.

 

[Whoislloydy]

James Blunt's twitter is hilarious, comeback king!

That, & his music...

Fair enough you think he’s a tit. But I never understand people who say someone’s music is shit. In this case, people clearly like James Blunt. Who are you to say it’s shit?
