Stars and their Staffies

Whilst I was out today , was listening to Radio 1 and they were doing an interview on Scot Mills show with Professor Green , and he dropped in that he owns a Staffie , I know Dame Helen Mirren has publicly approved the breed on the 1 show a while back (not sure if she owns one though ) , anybody else know anyone famous with a Staffy fetish ???

Wouldn't it be cool if we could get them to join the forum

I do know that Paul O'Grady has one called Frank, he was at Crufts with him and completed the agility course.

Professer Green didn't really shed them in a great light though! I know it was a sentence but having a staff to scare off pap, however tounge in cheek it was! I cringed myself

Oh I didn't notice that bit , I just heard the Take the boy out of Hackney..............

maybe now then we should complain to radio 1 and force Professor Green to do a long sermon about how great staffies are and how his comment was a joke but insensitive , now that would go down well with a lot of people ?????

now there's a thought do you want to call or should I?

As far as Ican remember Michael Owen as staffs remember years ago seen him pictured witha staff

The late steve Irwin had a Staffie. And dont forget that one of the most famous dogs in the world was a Staffie - Jock of the Bushveld.

Now I've just been on Wiki and found out who Jock of the Bushveld is ... cool

Had never honestly heard of it until Lynne mentioned it , sounds like a great idea and a good Staffy Promotion

Great I didn't know that - I'll look out for it- I've seen the film which was great (a little gruesome in a couple of places but probably true to the era it's from) although, the ending will have us grown men crying lol

I dont think I will be able to watch then if it has a sad ending I hate sad storys

after bit digging on net found following .........

"One of the most popular Staffordshire Bull Terriers is likely that of late conservationist Steve Irwin. His female Staffie named Sui made many cameos on his popular TV show The Crocodile Hunter."
"Action movie star Vin Diesel has also come to appreciate the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Of the several dogs the famous actor is known to have, one is a Staffie that goes by the name of Winston. "
"Comedian and actor Raymond Romano from the popular hit series Everybody Loves Raymond owns a beautiful caramel Staffordshire Bull Terrier."
"comedian Frank Skinner has 2 white staffs"
"Jordan and Peter Andre had 2 Staffy pups a while back but one drowned in their swimming pool "
"Michael Owen owns 3 staffs"
