“hecklersprayers, I’m getting a man. He’s got blondey-brown hair with a reddy tinge and he might wear glasses? Or shoes? His name begins with a D…no? An S? Still no-one? T? Ah yes. Is it Terry? Tommy you say. He says that he’s sorry and that he’s forgiven you.”
Which is the cue for the audience member to burst into tears and hail Sally Morgan as some modern day Jesus, except with a few more pounds in her bank account. He knows it’s not about the money, money, money. It’s all about the kick ass robes.
Which is what it’s been for years now. Sally Morgan has steadfastly made a name for herself as being an authentic psychic, even though there’s not really such a thing; Spreading messages from beyond the grave to bored housewives, people who should know better and professional vagina-heads Katie Price and Diana, Princess of Hearts (may she rest in peace… or, y’know, pestered by psychics in the afterlife).
But now there’s a bit of a psychic hoohah going on as footage of Sally Morgan removing an earpiece after a show has arisen on her own YouTube channel and some members of one of her audiences claim that they have heard someone in a back room of a Dublin theatre passing information onto Morgan via the medium of actual technology. Which is probably one of the most legal things to happen in a Dublin theatre back room, eh, [reference to X Factor judge removed].
On the face of it, it makes it look like Morgan has been entirely disingenuous about her claims to talk to spirits and various other mythical beasts*. Why does she need to have an earpiece in? Surely that just clashes with all those spirits queuing up to use her mouth as a portal to the realm of the living. Or using her eyes to look at those scandalous pictures of Scarlett Johansson. And unless she has a legion of psychics at her command, like a telepathic Justice League, there’s not really much need for her to have someone feeding information to her IF THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED.
To help Morgan out of this paranormal pickle, sceptical scientists have set up an experiment for her to prove that she has fancy medium powers, and isn’t a dirty rotten scoundrel. Fantastic right? Imagine how fantastic it would be to say that you are an accredited psychic. People would want to sit next to you on the bus if you were an accredited psychic. This whole experiment thing could only result a good thing, right?
So it probably won’t surprise you to hear that Morgan had no intention of turning up to the experiment, mainly because everyone suspects her career to be a jug of horsepiss, or, possibly because she has an “extremely rare” illness and her doctor has advised her not to travel by plane, train or automobile.
Her legal representative, Graham Atkins has emailed the wonderful writer Simon Singh saying these words:
“You well know that we all have far more important things to do than take part in this or any other ‘test’ at this point. She will not attend at Liverpool or at any other time.”
Sounds like a bit of a cock doesn’t he? Not because he’s making Sally Morgan look like a prize weapon, but because he’s totally cock blocking any attempt at debunking paranormal pranksters.
Looks like its just down to us and Derren Brown.
* Rumour has it Sally Morgan meets…The Kraken will be a hit of the Christmas TV line up.
