Shocked residents looked on in disbelief this month as hollywood star “Gonzo” of Muppet fame was involved in a car crash in our Moseley. The small furry, er, Thing, was making his way up St.Mary’s Row when he crashed into a Volvo. The car, of course, is a write off. Gonzo, real name James Victor Laczowski-Fraser III Jr II was quoted as saying, “I just dunno what happened, I came over the hill, and this car was just in the road – what it was doing there is anybody’s guess.”
Gonzo first shot to fame in the hit television set series called “The Muppet Show” starring along such great names of the acting world as Kermit T. Frog, Ms. Piggy and Beeker. His film credits include, “The Muppets Hit Manhattan”, “The Muppets’ Treasure Island” and “The Muppets’ Christmas Carol” (I see a trend forming here, the talentless fuck).
Tabloid journalists have been spotted in the direct vacinity to where the blue furry fella is residing leading to specualtion that the crash may have been caused by something more sinister. The grapevine has it that the star of late has been suffering from depression “at being typecast in roles as a small blue muppet with a big nose” although we have found little evidence of this. Immediately after the crash, this Eye On Moseley reporter found evidence of chicken feathers in the area that the crash took place and this combined with eye witness suggestions that the American star was seen to be “fiddling with his fly” after the crash lead me to believe that Gonzo’s relationship with his Chickens has gone beyond that of simple friendship. Finger Lickin’ Good, one might say. More news as we get it.
