A few days ago Lee Ryan – formerly of boyband Blue, now just spends a lot of time on MySpace – called our boy Chris Laverty some nasty names. We called him some back. Now he's got out of his pram.
Here's the latest from Lee Ryan’s Official MySpace page:
am i making you famouse now??
its alright bruv milk it while you can, oh yeah about the whole spelling grammer thing "nice touch" im dyslexic, anything else you wanna say??
pathetic!!
Well we could mention the fact that Lee, in his own words, doesn't 'give a fuck' about 2,973 people dying during 9/11. Funny, having a poke at his grammar seems somewhat less terrible after that.
Right, we’re off to buy some farmhouse milk.
Mithaearon says
He is tempting me to read his myspace page for other classic pieces of “Lee-isms”. His comments about 9/11 are great “What about the whale”. Is he on crack?
Just out of interest apart from talking about whales and reading Hecklerspray, what does Lee Ryan do nowdays? Does he still make “music” (and I use the word music in its loosest form :P )
Mithaearon says
Oh bugger. Just looked him up on Wiki and it appears he was born in the same town as me.
Internet Pedant says
I’m confused as to why a man of such talent would lower himself to engage in a battle of wits with, er, a snarky internet humour site. This is surely a an intellectual indulgence; a mere exercise in Socratic irony which, when fully played out, will result in a reignition of Lee’s career in the arts and wide condemnation for this hurtful gossip rag.
Slightly off-topic, but I’ve known a couple of dyslexic people. Their spelling and grammar were awful, but they weren’t complete bell-ends.
Anyway, ask him what celebrity reality show he’s going to appear on.
Gilbert Wham says
I am more inclined to believe he is thick, not dyslexic. Or, indeed, ironic.
Internet Pedant says
e cant be fick cus e iz well famouse jus lik mickey an u iz jus jelus
Mithaearon says
init bruv
kate says
being able to spell famous has nothing to do with dyslexia – he’s just a nutter looking for any excuse – and I still have no idea who or what the heck he is supposed to be
Viking Lumberjack says
This is the second time he’s nearly put me at a loss for words. Is he brilliant or the mental equivalent of a shovel by his uncanny ability to do this?
Using dyslexia as an excuse was fascinating, as we most likely weren’t aware that the disorder had the side effects of not being able to find a shift key or speak proper English. Wait, forget that. The shift key is huge and is located on both sides of the keyboard, and the ability to speak proper English is based on not being a glassy eyed dimwit despite being raised with it as a first language.
Perhaps he has a rare form of dyslexia in which he doesn’t substitute left for right, or screw up a couple of letters in the middle of words, but rather thinks the shift key is on the bottom of the keyboard? Wait, forget that too. I know we’d all love to give him the benefit of the doubt, but let’s just call it a day, decide he’s a slavering knee-licker, and encourage him to hire a ghost writer for when he wants to argue with a celebrity gossip website.

get a life you lot. does it feel good 2 criticise a successful boyband member? does it somehow make you feel above him?
3 No.1 albums, 3No.1 singles, 2 BRIT Awards, over 7 million albums and 4 million singles sold.
just because spelling is not his strongest point, i can bet he has had more success so far than any of you will have in a lifetime.
his words about the 9/11 tragedy were taken completely out of context, try researching that one and you might discover what he actually said.
if you hate him that much, why bother keep messaging him??
Tash says
Ok wtf are you guys on I think it’s really nasty what your all saying about him your just has bad has the bloke that started this whole thing anyway and you have to lower yourself to make nasty comments like that.
Yes Lee does have dyslexia and at Kate it isn’t an excuse to not being able to spell the word famous next time before you say anything think before you speak love has to me that could be classed has BULLYING and i don’t like bullies and thats what u all are apart from the one’s that have stuck up for him.
Lee is still making music and he will continue to do so whether you like it or not has thats his passion and he will never give that up for no one, I think he will be glad that you have taken time out of your sad lifes to write about him really and i am sure Lee would be very flattered like he would care what u say about him anyway. He would just laugh it all off has your just making him more famous.
And at Gilbert he is NOT thick i actually know some people who are dyslexic and they are no way on this earth thick they are clever and rather intelligant people unlike some of you on here, so to say some one is thick who has dyslexia is rather stupid, as that is a very hurtful thing to say you don’t even know the bloke I would say he has more brains then any of you on here i can tell you that now. He is a very creative person and knows what he wants from life and he is out there to do it and one of these days and i am sure he is doing this now he is gonna be laughing at all you lot has it just makes him a better person and makes him stronger he has had to deal with a lot in life so a few words from you guys isn’t gonna hurt him.
So next time you take time out to write about Lee, think before you speak.
Tonmeister Jones says
I don’t think I’ve ever seen the word ‘has’ used in place of the word ‘as’ before.
betty says
ok some people on here are really mean…i dont understand why you have to bring lee ryan down that way? what has he actually done to YOU lot? i should think nothing…leave the guy alone seriously, whatever he said in the past should remain in the past. he said sorry so many times, and he was younger. he has changed so much know and stop talking about 9/11 please, as he was mortified enough AND, as lucy rightly said, it is NOT what he said. some people cant express themselves in a right way sometimes, or dont think before they speak, and im sure it has happened to you at least once. lee will be soon back with a bang and i really want to see what you lot have to say after that…i hope criticising someone makes you feel better and also i hope that you will not have to go through what lee has gone through. how would you feel if you heard such stupid and hurtful comments said to you every day? do you think its nice to spend one’s life bitching about people? like lee said “pathetic!!”…now thats my boy!
Adam Gade says
I find it hilarious in all three articles attached to Lee Ryan here that his only commenting supporters are illiterate girls. Most likely they range in the mid teens of age and merely like him for the infinitely small chance of him looking their way one day.
Nevertheless, he is a twat, plain and simple girls; for you to defend him and his 9/11 comments only puts you in the same sinking ship. Finally, girls, do you really think he even realizes you exist much less give a shit to think of how eagerly and blindly you adore him.
Lucy T says
well said!!
lee ryan says
i was seventeen! and i did’nt say it so can i just get that clear. I know i’ve said some stupid things growing up but who has’nt. you lot are horrible people man. at least i can say i have a good heart.
Miss Cracker. says
P.s. Psychotics, Lee hasn’t even been on his myspace since September 19 upon observation. I’m sure he’d rather be spending his time on there than wasting it on here.
Alex Broad says
Firstly, I think that the way you’re all attacking Lee is uncalled for. Has he ever done anything to you, personally, to warrant such venom? Secondly, what he said about 9/11 was taken out of context. I know because, not only have I asked him about this (because I lost relatives that day and was SEVERELY pissed off by the article) but also because the journalist in question actually retracted that segment of the interview, as it was revealed that he twisted Lee’s words. oh, and, just for the record, I’m not an illiterate teenage girl (as you so succinctly put it) who “adores” Lee. I just don’t think it’s right when people are bullied which is all you lot are doing.
Mamooshka says
Alex, do you … ummm … “like” Lee?
