Subject: He's So Fat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Written By: Numnum on 07/12/03 at 03:38 p.m.

Oops...Thought I was someone else then  ;D

Here is a 2002 picture of Limahl I found...I hardly reconised him at first! He looks like a dead Ringer of Donald Duck.

Ah,what can you do about it? Age shows its face. You know,when Limahl was at his peak it was 1984,the whole 19 years have passed since then.And no way he can look like he used to all those years ago.

From the picture, he didn't look fat to me.  ???

Sure Limahl is getting on a bit but everybody has to face that later on in life.  :-/

Hey, he is not fat at all. Actually I saw some of his recent pics and he still tiny and slim just like before. The only difference is that his hair is not as thick and cool as before and he aged. But what would you expect after 20 years?
He looked awesome in the Kajagoogoo times, but you know we don't have any technologies that make people look young forever... well maybe just Madonna found the formula. LOL
take care

And here I fancied myself to be know everything 80's, but I had no idea who this Limahl was that you guys are talking about.

I looked up his name, and found out he was the lead singer of Kajagoogoo and thought "Oh ofcourse! Those guys"  I loved that song....Too Shy.  

*so ashamed*

Mr. One Hit Wonder?

Heck, I think he looks pretty good.  For aging 20 years.

Do you think you'll look the same 20 years from now?

i guess kajagoogoo had 3 hits in the UK charts:
"Too shy", "Ooh to be ah" and "hang on" but
then he left Kajagoogoo in 83 and while solo yes, he became a one hit wonder with the theme song to the movie "never ending story"
I agree with you that he still look good after 20 years!  8)

Don't feel bad.  Kajagoogoo were just one hit wonders way back in 1983.

People remember the band name and their "Too Shy" song, but I bet most people don't know Limahl or any of the other singers of Kajagoogoo either.

Limahl  is also known for the theme of "Never Ending Story", a top 20 hit in 1984.
Though It was a mediocre track and probably forgettable.

'Never Ending Story' by Limahl was a great track inspired by Gorgio Morodor. Limahl had a couple of minor hits in Britain.

That "chick" is Samantha Fox. She's apparently a lesbian, so unless you're a female yourself, you've got no chance. :P

Don't be so presumptuous. Who do you consider "most people?" Americans? How about the rest of the world? There are more people in all the other countries combined than there are in America. I live in Canada, and have all my life...and I knew who KajaGooGoo and Limahl were in the 80's! I could name albums! Unfortunately, as far as songs go, I could only name "Too Shy" and "Neverending Story." But I knew of White Feathers (I think) and Limahl's album ...Don't Suppose. (Though I have since learnt that he's released more than one album.) Oh! I almost forgot!!! I even knew who Kaja was!!! Remember Kaja? I knew my music, I guess. I read Smash Hits!

So I hope we've learnt a lesson. Don't generalise until you know the facts. "Most people" might actually have known who they were. Just not the people in one country who never really caught on to that music scene anyway to have paid much attention.

I knew that Limahl sang the song for The Neverending Story, but I never realized he was the lead singer of Kajagoogoo.
I don't thinks he's aged that badly.

I agree.  It may not be the best picture because his head is turned, but he doesn't look that bad at all!  :)

So,no chance for any of men on here! ;)

Ah,what can you do about it,Bobby? She chosed what she thinks is best for her and there is nothing to be done about it at all.Unfortunately.And British tabloids just couldn't wait to print that news out at all.  *sighs*
I really don't know why she married someone of the same sex when she's female already.She needs someone with that opposite one to complete her.
Women are strange creatures,aren't they?Eh!  ;) ;D

I just don't get it.

She spent the decade "playing" to men, especially in her videos and mags/poster layouts. Then it turns out she didn't even like men.

???

Ah, she made the money.

Of course! Stupid me. :P
