Christine has described herself as a "pretty basic love song writer"

I think she sells herself short. She writes great pop songs for grown ups.

PS did you see her getting her Oscar the other night? Oh no wait a minute that was her lookalike Helen Mirren

That's exactly what I was thinking too. They could almost be sisters. They're both such classy, regal ladies.

By the way, Helen is actually 2 years younger than Chris.

Here's "Helen" picking up an award a few years ago.

Yes I wondered why Helen Mirren was picking up an award for Rumours

Actually perhaps they are the same person. I mean has anyone ever seen them in the same room together?

Yes I think I could be.

didn't Helen Mirren once say when collecting an award that her greatest achivement was not going "arse over tit" walking up the stairs

Mouth like a sewer? Where have we heard that before?

Yes, I do believe they are the same person. I can definitely imagine Chris saying something like that.

Yep, Helen Mirren would be *perfect* (excuse the awful pun) as an older Chris in an FM movie. Maybe with Stockard Channing as Stevie?

If she ever does fall arse over tits and later says it hurt like a mofo, that seals it.
