Ours after all?


THIS blog's had its doubts, but the folk at the Telegraph don't share them: Taio Cruz, who topped the US singles chart last month, went to CH. Presumably they got this from Taio himself, and he ought to know.

Even so: what were his dates? What houses was he in? What name was he known by? And why's he so hard to find in the CH records? If you can shed any light, please leave a comment or email me.

I would warn you that it is very common for article writers for all the major newspapers to "plush" out their articles with so-called facts from wikipedia, there have been many such incidents where wikipedia has had false information that is then circulated in multiple news articles. I would have been in his year for the three years that I was in Lamb B and don't recall him by any of the names mentioned.

He definitely did not go to CH,a lot of music types did though including Ben Scarr (the A&R who initially signed Tinchy Stryder) My thoughts are that Taio went to an expensive public school then to throw a journalist of the scent said he went to CH as it would be more acceptable due to its charitable status. He then had to run with this story as it had been published...
