Iglu and Hartly's Mark wish
Monday, 6 October 2008
Iglu and Hartly say they'd love to party with Mark Morrison.
The 'In the City' group say they love British R 'n' B singer Mark Morrison - most famous for sending a lookalike to complete a community work order imposed on him while he fled the UK, for which he was sentenced to a year's imprisonment in 1998.
When asked who they'd most like to party with, the band unanimously agreed on the singer.
Singer Jarvis Anderson said: "Mark Morrison, we love that guy - his song 'Return of the Mack' is amazing. I know he's a character who divides opinion, but we love his song."
The band's other vocalist, Sam Martin, added: "Didn't he send a body double to do his community service for him? Genius, f***ing awesome. I heard he didn't look anything like him though."
Morrison - who hit number one in the UK and number two in the US singles charts with 'Return of the Mack' - has been accused of a string of crimes, and was convicted in 1997 of attempting to bring a stun gun onto an aircraft.
Iglu and Hartly said that if they were organising their own party they'd invite Morrison to perform alongside Tom Petty and Lionel Richie.
