Sue Wilkinson - You've Gotta Be A Hustler If You Want To Get On


Every time I see a picture of that loathsome actress in the media I'm reminded of this song by the late Sue Wilkinson, I sing it out loud, changing the name Sally to Meghan.

  1. "When you read the newspapers every day
    There's always some hussy that's having her way
    By dating someone famous, she makes herself a name
    And no one blames her, I guess we'd all do the same

    But then they get married and before you know
    She wants divorce and half of his dough
    Gets herself a lawyer who's a really shrewd guy
    And gets the judge's sympathy by crying and crying"


    Give it ten years, and it'll be "Ginge versus The Actress". "Johnny Depp vs The Amber Creature" will have nothing on that!

    Jx

    PS Loved that song - didn't even know Sue Wilkinson was dead...

    1. Men will always crave a cunning flirt.

      If Henry is anything like his step father Charles, then he has taken a mistress 10% less attractive than the wife, who could it be? He has a penchant for mixed race women, we know that, so I reckon he could be knocking off Mel B in the states and UK garden designer Arit Anderson.

    2. I take that back, Mel B is more attractive than the actress.

    3. Arit Anderson's more attractive than the actress. How about Camila Batmanghelidjh? Perhaps not, her name's too similar to "Mr Ed" his step-mum. Speaking of shapely lovelies, did you read that Tess Holiday reckons she's got anorexia? Jx

    4. I wonder if Fatima Whitbread is available for afternoon trysts at the palace. I've never heard of Tess Holiday before but looking at her picture I reckon she's bulimic, she eats absolutely loads but forgets to make herself sick afterwards. I know what Camila looks like and yet, perversely I clicked on the link and now I feel dirty and in need of a Dettol bath.

  2. I remember this song! I think I recorded it from the radio - back in the day when that was the only way of downloading tunes.
    If there is a divorce then a corker of a book and film will follow!

    1. Yes, I remember those old fashioned hand held cassette players, you had to press play and record at the same time. My mother's face was a picture when she went to play one of her tapes, Nana Mouskouri's Passport and got an earful of Grandmaster Flash and Melle Mel's White Lines.

  3. "A hussy who's having her way...." That certainly sounds like what's her name. So much of the drivel about the entire sorry mess implies that you need to either be on her side or the parasites, when, in fact, all right thinking people despise both of them.

    All this proves is that men really do marry their mothers.

    1. Call me old fashioned, if I had my way, they would be put against a wall and shot.

  4. First Elizabeth (isn't she a dear? Don't you think she's a dear? I think she is just the dearest thing.) becomes a widow, then Bill Gates gets a divorce. Such interesting timing. Do you think he'll let Charles call him "Daddy?"

    1. That's uncanny! Elizabeth Windor-Gates it has got a certain ring to it.

      In answer to your question, no I don't.

  5. I'd never heard this before, but love it!

    I find that the only palatable version of "that loathsome actress" is the one from Channel 4's The Windsors.

    1. Sorry about the delay in replying, I was called away. When that common piece Catherine came on to the scene Money by the Flying Lizards kept playing in my mind, you can almost imagine that it is her actually singing it can't you? I've thawed slightly towards her. Was there any sex scenes between the Queen and Prince Phillip in The Windsors?

  6. Put against a wall ... nownow, Haus Battenberg does a brave job ruling over a (crumbling) multiethnical "state".
    This actress ... one can only wish "good luck" to anybody involved. Against better judgement., experience, and common sense.
    Is there an expression like "prick thinking" ?
