Fatboy Who?

Norman Fatboy Slim Cook was almost excluded from his own gig at last weekend’s Rock Ness Festival in Scotland when an over-zealous security guard refused to let him pass for not having the right VIP pass.

“The steward did his job but didn’t recognise Norman,” his publicist told the Glasgow Sunday Mail, “But it was all sorted out fairly quickly and everyone took it in good spirits.”

The multi-millionaire pop star performed to rapturous crowds at the Scottish event, despite recently failing to match his glory years in the late 90s, a point he admitted in the Times last week in a typically illuminating interview.

“It’s weird, because in the past couple of years my record sales have declined, but my DJ-ing career is at an all-time high,” said Cook, “A lot of it is my reputation for throwing a good party. I’m not the world’s best DJ, but I’m probably the world’s best-known DJ,” he mused.

He also admitted that he’s nowadays a lot more cautious about discussing drugs in interviews and said he’s nowadays a gym regular with few after effects from years of partying.

“There was a point where I would, like Bill Hicks, tell positive drug stories. Yes, people die, but tons of other people have tons of fun. I used to say that but now I wouldn’t, because you get caned for it. I’ve learnt my lesson,” he added.
