Marti Pellow
 
At March 23rd, 1965 baby Mark McLachlan was born. Growing up in Clydebank/Scotland to a length of 1.75 m he thought it would be nice to become Marti Pellow, the mega-talented (and gorgeous) singer of the wonderful Scottish band WetWetWet. His eyes are brown, and most of the time also his hair, but sometimes he decides to dye it back "to its original colour" (platinum blonde, but you don't have to believe that!), and then the copse don't match, but - hey! - c'est la vie!
 
He considers himself to be a Maraschino cherry and likes an occassional sherry or a 50:50 shandy, but that means that he really pushes the boat out! One night he even stayed up until 12.30!
One of his favourite hobbies seem to be cars. As far as I know he once has got a BMW and a Mercedes SL, but his last pride is (or was? There were rumours that he transformed it into a big heap of tin in July 1997) a Ferrari.

The Sunday afternoons he usually spends watching the Antiques Roadshow, but as you can imagine there are, errm, things he fancies more... Like eg to embarrass young women at concerts, asking them about their underwear!

His biggest fear was to forget the words to a song while being onstage, and indeed - his biggest fear became true in August 1997 at Sheffield Arena, when suddenly he couldn't remember the words to "Julia Says". If this was worse than ripping his trousers in Aberdeen?

He always wanted to be a good singer and moans that the people only want to see his ****, but that's not true! That's not the only thing we want to see, nah, we want to see everything, but - honestly! - we also love to listen to his incredibly great voice.
