I hadn't heard about the hospital rumour actually. It's not a recent one is it? [img]confused.gif[/img] I'm sure he's fine, just busy getting his new album ready for release atm, so I think that's why everything's been so quiet on the Darren front recently [img]smile.gif[/img]

From my experience, rumours typically come from one of two places.

Take for example this hospital rumour - he's been quite, there are no new pics, etc.. etc... I hope he's okay, what if he's not... and so on. And one person's fear gets shared with another and so on and so on and each person interprets what they have heard differently and suddenly someone's fear is replaced with a statement that is being shared as fact.

It's frustrating... and it always worries me because originally when I hear something like this my first reaction is one of fear "What if he is?!" kind of fear.

Funny you should say that Laurie, I was watching the film "Gossip" last night (I've seen it before but...anyhow) and basically it deals with all that. It's usually pretty interesting to watch, the rumours are started deliberately to hurt someone or get back at them, and they're just plain lies...and of course it all ends up in a big huge mess...

I vaguely remember the D in hospital rumours but I'm like Kat in that my thoughts at the time were '....and???' *shrugs*

As for Leo and her baby, that whole deal is odd b/c it's definately NOT a rumour. [img]confused.gif[/img] Still, I'd hate anyone to think that I actually care! [img]wink.gif[/img] lol

The hospital rumour was going around in January or February, I think.

The hospital rumour came from a chatroom (i think?) i didn't know about till it a statement was posted by Tracey saying he was fine.

It probably was just a rumour, who knows, i certainly wasn't losing any sleep over it! [img]wink.gif[/img]

Anyway who is this Hayes Person??????
