Musician Danny O’Donoghue explained how he ended up in the hospital after a six-hour champagne binge with Sir Tom Jones.

Sir Tom and Danny, who is the lead singer of Irish group The Script, were among the first judges on The Voice TV show in 2012 along with Jessie J and Will.i.am.

O’Donoghue mentioned he had a hard time keeping pace with Sir Tom despite being 40 years younger as the Welsh legend is soon to reach 84 years old.

He reached home, went to sleep, and when he woke up, he noticed his heart was beating irregularly.

In an interview with BBC Radio Wales, O’Donoghue revealed that the drunken gathering lasted all night.

He remembered: “It happened following a performance on The Voice, while we were at the Lowry hotel in Manchester. We went out for drinks that evening, and he shared anecdotes about Elvis and the Rat Pack. Whenever the champagne reached a certain level, he would snap his fingers to request another bottle.”

He stated that you must stay at the table until all the champagne is finished. And it simply refused to quit.

We were likely there for about six hours, from midnight to six in the morning.

“I distinctly recall wondering why there was so much clanging noise while they were setting up breakfast items in the morning.”

Upon getting into bed and waking up, he sensed that something was amiss.

Not knowing what was happening, I decided to visit the hospital due to developing atrial fibrillation after consuming only champagne for six hours.

He mentioned that he had missed a couple of days of recording for The Voice.

“It was my responsibility as I should have quit drinking much sooner.”

A 2018 Lancet study, conducted worldwide, reconfirmed earlier findings that no amount of alcohol consumption is considered safe.

Danny said Sir Tom, who is from the town of Pontypridd in south Wales, is a “great guy”.

I’m not trying to make him sound old, but he comes from the same time as my dad, and he’s a manly man who was raised in the coal mines, enjoys music, and liked to drink.

“Such an incredible career that man has had.”

“And just like every other Welsh person, they have a down-to-earth nature that makes it easy to overlook Tom’s enormous fame and legend. However, he has a way of making you feel special. I truly enjoyed my time with him.”

After accumulating 10 billion streams, selling 12 million albums, achieving six UK number 1 albums, The Script makes a comeback with a new single Both Ways from their new album Satellites, which was released in August.

After a short illness, the band’s co-founder and guitarist Mark Sheehan passed away in April of last year.

O’Donoghue expressed that creating music served as a form of emotional release following “the most difficult year of our lives following Mark’s passing”.

We are transitioning to a new year and leaving behind the dark period, moving away from grief and choosing to be hopeful about the upcoming year.

The sadness and mourning will always be present, but we are eager to begin celebrating and getting back to work to honor our long-standing goals.

The 43-year-old vocalist confessed that he found it difficult to deal with his bandmate’s passing.

I was in that pit all last year and I required help getting out of it. My friends, family, and music were the ones who extended a hand, reached into that dark pit, and pulled me out.

The band now wishes to commemorate his life, and O’Donoghue mentioned that even though he is no longer present, he continues to greatly impact their music.

“He frequently lashed the standards with the whip.”

“He was clearly a brilliant songwriter and talented musician and whenever I complete a song, I often wonder, ‘What would his opinion on it be?'” Ninety percent of the time, it’s not satisfactory.

He had very high expectations and he desired us to be not just a band, but a band that others admired. It wasn’t just about having good lyrics, but also great music and impeccable singing.

“Everything remains intact, without exception, he continues to be present, the criteria remain unchanged.

Playing his guitar frequently helps me feel a stronger connection to him, so he is definitely contributing to the album.

Ron Howard has been a household name almost as long as the 70 years he’s lived. The Hollywood heavyweight has been going nonstop in film and television, a career he started as a toddler.

In addition to his impressive career, the multiple award winner – who also demonstrates longevity in his personal life – has been married to his wife Cheryl for almost half a century.

Keep reading to learn more about Howard, his decades-long career and marriage!

On March 1, 1954 in Duncan, Oklahoma, Ronald Howard, a future Hollywood legend was born.

Howard was only 18 months old when he appeared in his first film, Frontier Woman, and when he was two, he made his stage debut in The Seven Year Itch.

Soon after the freckle-faced redhead started his celebrity journey with his role on The Andy Griffith Show (1960 to 1968).

In this time, when the little boy played Opie, the son Griffith’s character, Howard had the full support of his parents, who were both in the entertainment industry.

“Remember how we always said, ‘You can do it if you want, but you don’t have to?’ Well if you start this, you can’t quit’,” said Howard, recalling a conversation he had with his parents decades before. “You don’t have to do other parts on other shows, if you don’t want, but you’d have to keep doing this one.”

Explaining that he understood the message his parents were delivering, Howard adds, “I think it was pretty clear at that point that I was enjoying it, and I was good at it.”

Actually, he was great at it, and he was about to reach a level of stratospheric stardom.

Howard’s ‘Happy Days’

While starring in The Andy Griffith Show, Howard also appeared on the big screen in 1962’s The Music Man, a musical film that was a huge commercial success.

A natural talent, he then starred in 1973’s American Graffiti, which also starred Harrison Ford, Richard Dreyfuss and Cindy Williams, whom he would work alongside in the future.

It was in 1974 when he was cast as Richie Cunningham in a new series created by Garry Marshall called Happy Days, which appeared on TV screens in homes across the world from 1974 to 1984.

The TV show spawned a few popular spin-offs like Laverne & Shirley, starring Williams and Marshall’s sister Penny, and Mork & Mindy with Robin Williams as Mork, the favorite Orkan.

High school sweetheart

It was in 1970 – before he won a Golden Globe for his performance as the innocent teenager on Happy Days – that Howard met the high school sweetheart, Cheryl Alley, whom he would marry in 1975.

“I met her, and there was never anybody else,” Speaking with People, the director of the Da Vinci Code continued, “She’s unbelievably supportive and always has been. Our compatibility has endured through all kinds of experiences.”

After 50 years of shared experiences, Howard, who earned an Oscar for directing A Beautiful Mind, commemorated the 50^th anniversary of his first date with Cheryl on Instagram.

“Nov 1 1970 Cheryl & I went on our 1st date,” he wrote alongside a photo of himself wearing socks with images of Cheryl’s face. “We went to see a re-release of Stanley Kramer’s It’s a Mad Mad Mad World and then got some pizza at now defunct Barnone’s in Toluca Lake. Quite a start, right?”

He also shared their plans that day, “We’ll be driving in the same ‘70 VW Bug I picked Cheryl up in 5 decades ago. It runs great. So do we.”

His ‘good luck charm’

Cheryl made several cameos in Howard’s projects and even played herself on the TV comedy series Arrested Development, produced and narrated by Howard.

Speaking with the Television Academy, Ron called Cheryl his “good luck charm,” and explained that is why she appears in every film he makes.

“At a certain point, I became very superstitious about making sure that she appears, that she’s at least identifiable in one frame,” he said. “They don’t have to be big cameos, but she’s gotta be in there.”

In addition to bringing her husband some luck, Cheryl is also a published author who holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in screenwriting.

The power couple are grandparents to six children and the parents of four, daughter Bryce, twins Paige and Jocelyn and son Reed.

Bryce – a recognizable actor – is known for roles in movies like Jurassic World and The Help, while Paige made her feature film debut in the 2009 movie Adventureland. Since she’s appeared in films The Employer and Collection.

Reed is a professional golfer and Paige’s twin sister Jocelyn is very private.

The secret to longevity

Nearing their 49th anniversary on June 7, the Emmy Award-winning producer shares that “communication” is the secret to their enduring love.

“People say, ‘How’d you do it?’ There’s no technique,” Howard tells People. “There’s no tactic, other than communication is really important. You have to learn to communicate and have difficult conversations in constructive ways. Beyond that, there’s an element of luck because people either grow together or they don’t and I don’t think you can force that.”

Dolly Parton has lived a long and mega-successful life in the spotlight.

The iconic singer’s talents have transcended decades and styles; she’s been a fixture at the top of the entertainment industry since almost any of us can remember.

Yet even one so legendary as she is forced to face up to her critics. As per reports, there’s been a few of them active of late, giving her a hard time about her looks – yes, this despite the fact she’s approaching her eighties.

Dolly Parton, 77, is a household name in both country music and the celebrity sphere.

The Tennessee native has become nothing short of a legend and, despite performing and singing pretty much her entire life, she has loved to entertain her legions of fans.

Dolly Parton, in a recent interview with Pollystar, explained that she would not be touring anymore. She explained:

“I’ll do special shows here and there, now and then. Maybe do a long weekend of shows, or just a few shows at a festival. But I have no intention of going on a full-blown tour anymore.”

Dolly Parton, who managed to reach the very top of world entertainment after growing up in poverty in the Appalachian Mountains, will certainly be missed on the stage.

Yet while her popularity is undeniable, there remain those who criticize her for the way she looks.

In fact, her appearance appears to have been a sticking point almost since her career started. In the past, Dolly’s even recalled people telling her to ditch her signature look if she ever wanted a real career.

“The main advice that people want to give me was to change my look – to go simpler with my hair and the way that I dress,” she explained,

“Not to look so cheap, nobody was ever going to take me seriously, they would say.”

Over the years, the mean comments haven’t gone away. If anything, some people feel even more vindicated in labeling Dolly in ways that seem wholly unfair.

One Twitter user wrote: “Dolly Parton is One ugly lady,” while another said: “Dolly Parton is so ugly, but she got nice breasts.”

Through all the unkindness and vitriol from folks online, though, Dolly remains upbeat in her defiance. She’s perfectly comfortable with her body and looks, and isn’t about to change for anyone.

“It costs a lot of money to look this cheap,” she once famously said.

As for husband, the country icon has revealed in the past that he loves her no matter what.

“He doesn’t care if I’m fat,” said Parton.

“He was never turned off. He’s fool enough to think I’m the sexiest, prettiest woman in the world.”

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Dolly remains hungry for success and fresh challenges. As per Rolling Stone, she’s ready to now embrace her 2022 entry into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and wants to honor it by way of delivering an album that some might consider to be outside of her wheelhouse.

Fans were delighted last year when it became apparent that Dolly Parton was in consideration for a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame after her stellar career.

Yet, if sources are to be believed, the superstar herself was initially reluctant to be in the conversation for the honor. The Jolene singer was said to be of the opinion that since her career consists mostly of country music, others were perhaps more suited to finding their way into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

In the end, however, the people spoke, and voters decided that Dolly did belong there. In November, she was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and immediately set about trying to ensure that her selection was justified.

I don’t care what anyone says, I think Dolly Parton is so talented!
