Not since Kerry Katona’s knife-robbery trauma got half a page in The Guardian have we been so bemused by news-folks’ priorities.According to the BBC, Sandie Shaw, the Eurovision-winning, Puppet On A String chanteuse, has had corrective surgery on her “ugly” feet.
Sienna Miller might be playing Margaret Thatcher in a new film and yet the Beeb went bigger on Sandie Shaw’s deformed toes. The detail is remarkable:
* She got a pair of “huge, geisha-style shoes” upon discharge
* She was also given “condom-like rubber leg tubes to shower in” and “a self-propelled wheelchair”
* Bandages were taken off two weeks after the op, and her feet are “swollen, misshapen, yellow and bruised”
* Her nurse has encouraged SS to “bond with my new feet, to massage, moisturise and get familiar with them”
* She will unveil her new toes in October
Thanks for that, Auntie.
