Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which famous music producer incurred the wrath of an ex-girlfriend when she spied him chatting up one of her friends at a London nightclub? The tearful ex then tore a strip off of her so-called mate, too...

  7. I'm going to guess that "tore a strip off of her so-called mate" means she scratched his face.

  9. I think she wigged out on the ex, then turned and lit into her friend, as well.

  10. Really? I'm kind of surprised people don't know what "to tear a strip off someone" means - it means to yell at/scorn out. Is it just Americans that don't know the expression?

    That being said, this is a boring blind.

  11. Well, this American never heard that expression before, but there are lots of expressions used here that I don't know. I had to ask about this one though 'cuz "tearing a strip" made me think about hair removal.

  12. But Lisa (original) didn't know what it meant either, and when I first read the blind on BlindGossip, a lot of people were asking there. I just thought it was common knowledge.

  13. Definitely thought hair removal as well. Never heard that expression, just not part of the American lexicon I guess. Sounds like a fun phrase, though!

  14. Tore a strip off = Bitched him out.

    But why is it a big deal if they are exes? Does that mean he can't speak to any of her friends? Sounds as if there's a LOT more to the story.

  15. I'm going to say Simon Cowell. My heart's not really in it, but--Simon Cowell.
