'Nuts' Gest to tread the boards

Theatre impresario David Gest will tour the UK next year with a musical stage show featuring guest appearances from Shalamar, Gloria Gaynor and others.

The show, entitled David Gest Is Nuts - My Life as a Musical, opens in London's Hammersmith Apollo next February before travelling around the country.

"Considering I have no real talent this is quite a feat," said the 54-year-old.

The former I'm a Celebrity contestant remains best known for his short-lived marriage to singer Liza Minnelli.

But he has since reinvented himself as a TV personality thanks to his judging role on ITV1 talent search Grease is the Word.

'Legendary'

The musical tells the story of Gest's life with comedy and music and will feature 20 top five records performed by the original artists.

"We never thought we would see the day David Gest would sing and dance in public," said Gest's friend Michael Jackson in a statement.

"Considering David can't sing and can't dance it will be amazing to see just how nuts he gets on stage."

Jackson's brother Tito echoed his sibling's sentiments, saying the production was sure to be "an entertaining show".

"The fact that David will be singing with so many legendary artists is scaring Michael and I to death," he continued.

The first two shows, will raise funds for the Caudwell Children charity for terminally ill children, of which Gest is an ambassador.

How could this not be great.
 
The beard was a smart move. He looks more like Pavarotti and less like a boiled groundhog.

I imagine the title of his show alludes to the fact that, due to the multiple surgeries, his nuts are now his cleft chin. Amazingly his nose looks no bigger. Poor guy...
 
^Do you dislike him due to some love for Liza?
 
No, Liza is what made me even know who he was. I just find him to be extremely odd, and enjoy making fun of him.

If they ever play that UK reality show in the US where apparently he became the Hero of the Universe, maybe my opinion will be reshaped.
 
HE SAVED JASON DONOVAN FROM DROWNING AND SUCKED THE POISON OUT OF MYLEENE'S BOOBS WHEN A SNAKE BIT HER!
 
HE ALSO LEFT MICHAEL JACKSON TO DROWN AND SUCKED ALL THE MONEY OUT OF LIZA'S PURSE!
 
She used to hit him with steel chairs.
 
I figure you would like STONE COLD LIZA for that.
 
STONE COLD STUNNER, GET IT RIGHT OMG
 
Oh him!

LEX LUTHOR AND CHLOE SULLIVAN IN THAT PIC?
 
As predicted, only the middle Hanson child grew up to be not-fugly.
 
Is Oliver Reed involved in any way?
 
Only in the sense that when he died, he took Howie Mendel's hair with him.
 
Why did he have to die? :(
 
Keith Moon was getting tired of drinking alone?
 
So was Harry Nilsson. Damn.
