    Can think of a few more:

    Craig David
    Lemar (he was on Fame Academy)
    Amy Studt - a singer, remember her being called the UK's Avril Lavigne

    I thought Lemar sang Neverending Story :D

    Debra Winger - fantastic actress with the smokiest voice possible. She was big in the 80's and had the talent to be one of the greats imo but seemed to up and vanish without trace.:confused:

    Molly Ringwald - Brat Pack Actress in the 80s

    'Townies' back in 1996, a very short lived and shockingly awful sitcom was supposed to be a come back vehicle for her.

    But instead it gave us Jenna Elfman and Lauren Graham.

    Where's Ralph de Maccio now, or is he running his own Dojo in LA called Miyagikai?

    According to Wikipedia:
    In April 2012, Macchio was cast in the film Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, co-starring Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren, Jessica Biel and Toni Collette, and directed by Sacha Gervasi. Macchio will portray Psycho screenwriter Joseph Stefano.

    Was thinking about the celebrities who we used to hear about and have just vanished from the press.
    Jack Tweed? Danielle Llyod to name a few? Who else has just vanished?

    If it were down to me, just about all of them, hopefully.

    ETA.
    Celebrities are just like 'hammer games'. However much you try to get rid of them, they just keep coming back.

    Jimmy Cricket. He was always on the telly when I was a small child in the late 80's/early 90's and then seemed to vanish. In fact I thought I'd imagined him for years until I was on Youtube a few weeks ago and saw an old clip of him on there. I suppose his wholesome comedy act simply went out of fashion.


    For anyone interested Jimmy Cricket and Mick Miller are on at The Lowry Theatre in Salford (near the BBC) on Sunday 2nd September (2012) http://www.thelowry.com/event/mick-miller-and-jimmy-cricket

    I knew I'd seen his name mentioned in some thread or another.

    Abi Titmuss. She was on the front page of certain newspapers quite a lot around 2004/05.

    HAHA thought I saw her today boarding a Glasgow bound train at Motherwell! Then I realized no one in their right mind would visit Motherwell!

    Melinda Messenger's on Cowboy Builders on Channel 5. Although I also more recently saw it with a woman who was in Emmerdale, married to a footballer, Harry something.

    Peter Andre....okay, so some wishful thinking there - but I'd say within 5 years he'll be hocking the halo on ebay and bribing his kids to be allowed to be photgraphed with them when they are teens....Katie will still be famous, he wont. Karma will kick him hard....;)
