Ricky Hatton’s Mum Counts Out Tom Cruise, Sly Stallone And Tom Jones
THE Mail likes nothing better than showing its readers celebrities’ warts and all – featuring sinews, veins and scars.
Today the paper meets Carol Hatton, famous for being mother to boxer Ricky Hatton (“his name’s Richard”), drinking neat vodka from a water bottle at ringside and now giving Mail readers an invaluable insight into “very tiny” Tom Cruise.
And Tom Jones? “I might have chucked my knickers at him 50 years ago, but not now,” says Mrs Hatton. And in 1957 Jones might have caught them and not become ensnared and sent parachuting into the auditorium as the audience participated in a gusty clap-along.
Mrs Hatton is 53, making her a toddler fifty years ago, and as likely to toss a filled nappy as a G-string at Jones.
Mrs Hatton spots Angelina Jolie, who has “carried the WeightWatchers look a bit too far”.
She says of Sly Stallone: “Well, I wouldn’t say he’s ugly. He had the jet-black dyed hair and the wide-open eyes, but its just another life over here. They concentrate so much on their looks.”
