Somebody (Wattie) was recently pointing out
the rising trend of 70s Nicolson teachers'
kids growing up to be big in the Music Biz,
highlighted recently by the likes of Alyth
McCormack, thon Heather Macleod (Murdo John
the art teacher's daughter who is apparently
very big in Japan) and now Iain Mackinnon,
son of Froagy and aspiring MOR megastar.
Could it be that other famous pop figures of
today are also the offspring of past
Nicolson teachers, but have understandably
chosen to disguised their origins?
For example, I always reckoned that Kim
Wilde must have been H*bba's daughter
because he was very wild too. Except that
maybe his kids were actually Bjorn and
Benny.
Perhaps weight-troubled angst-lite chanteuse
Pink be the spawn of portly ginger physics
teacher Pinky?
And there was always that Joe Jackson thing
- you know how he looked awfully like K*nny
B*ldy... And Barts and Gareth Gates, of
course...
Are our readers aware of other examples of
this phenomenon?
