Bonnie Tyler Terrorizes AirFrance Flight
On a recent flight from France to Mauritius, Bonnie Tyler was asleep in first class when she was shaken awake by a stewardess and told the co-pilot was a big fan. He was retiring, would Bonnie mind coming up and shrieking "A Total Eclipse of the Heart" into the cheap airplane intercom? Miss Tyler was delighted.
Less delighted was a group of aesthetically maligned fellow passengers, darkly, "thought to be Belgians." They claim to have been traumatized by the experience, fearing their safety during the celebration. Apparently, they thought that Bonnie's voice would do to the airplane's engines what it had already done to their eardrums: cause them to explode.
Air France denies that was ever a possibility.

The real scare came when the navigator sang "turn around, bright eyes" in the background.
Good thing Billy Ocean and the Thompson Twins weren't on the plane, too.
Another reason--besides the zombies above--not to go to France.
I thought Bonnie Tyler was a 70s porn star.
The Thompson Twins can't board a plane because the fact that they're 3 of them causes the TSA to detain and cavity search them. Not that they mind.
People fly to Mauritius?
Which is more shocking, the stupidity of Belgians or the fact that Bonnie Tyler can still afford to fly first class?
Ms. Tyler is good-natured. if i were a singer and people treated me like a singing monkey on command, well, i wouldn't be pleased. at the very least. :-)
They were probably holding on for a hero to save them or something. I hear he's got to be strong and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from the fight or something...
