Lucy Spraggan and the use of her rape as a marketing tool.
This Lucy Spraggan (no, me neither) Apparently she was a contestant on X-Factor some 11 years ago. During the course of her short lived time on the show, she was apparently raped by an hotel porter. Accused went to court, was found guilty and justice won the day and quite right too. You may not have heard of all this, because at the time the young lady simply wanted justice to be done and get on with her life.
It would appear her life hasn’t financially gone quite to plan, so has now published her ‘memoir’ (who the fuck is going to read it outside her family and friends?) Here then lies the issue…how do you get some exposure to sell your book if people have forgotten who you are- even if they actually knew who you were to begin with that is?
Simple, you NOW bring to the media your rape story and hey presto according to the media this is now headline grabbing news, which they give you your platform to shift sales.
Rape is awful, but using rape to promote sales of something most wouldn’t wipe their arse on is deplorable.

She is a cunt.

Cost of Living Crisis innit?
Was it a Dark Key that did it?
She could have made the memoir into a fascinating “who dunnit”.
Grasping cunt.

She’s got tickets on herself hasn’t she?
I could control myself easily around her.
I wouldn’t be overcome with lust.
Wouldn’t put on my balaclava for her,
Don’t flatter yourself luv.

Yes it was a darkey. an Indian man called Soby John. He was deported.
(probably come back since).
Trust the Beeb not to mention it.

Doing a google image search for “Lucy Spraggan rapist convicted” only came up with one result with a picture of the rapist and it was from the Mirror dated 18/07/2023.
I thought it seemed odd that a hotel worker would rape a customer….. aside from being poor customer service, it seemed like a very dysfunctional, nay, third world thing to do. As soon as I saw the guy’s complexion, all my suspicions were proven justified.

A bit of a sad and desperate tactic by the sound of it.
Can’t see people rushing out to by her memoir anyway.
Morning all.

Well I don’t know what else Cowell and those ITV cunts could have done but I can see why the bastard BBC want to make a fuss and divert attention away from their own little scandals. I think this bitch can smell compo in the air.
11
She looks like she has an extra chromosome or two.
When she said it happened “during filming”, I thought she might’ve been double-teamed by Ant n’ Dec. Or maybe Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh could have had a go, trying to prove that they’re not closet-dwellers.
13
You just outed four massive benders there Thomas.
Ant and dic have been hanging out of each other since Byker Grove.
11
Simon Cowell a bender?
He’s been with that Sinita and everything.
Ok, he acts like a massive gay, dresses like a massive gay, parties with lots of massive gays, talks like a massive gay and likes the music of the massive gay…but that doesn’t make him a gay.
7
Cowell also has a lot of boybands under his wing. All the managers of boybands are bandits. Simon Napier Bell with Wham! Louis Walsh and Boyzone. That poof who managed Take That, Tom Watkins with Bros and East 17. Cowell with One Direction and some others.
Cowell also paid for Jonathan King’s bail when the latter was charged with Joe Roncing.🤔
10
And despite vicious rumours, he did not bum the stutter out of Gareth Gates.
8
And not forgetting Tam Paton. The dirty old phagwho managed the Bay City Rollers.

Spraggan sounds Scotch to me, so that may explain it.
3
The generation of cunts with no shame or common sense, next thing this fuckmonkey will be saying is she doesn’t want to talk about it.
Katey Price style attention seeking, it’s all been done before, they are all just cunts trying not to vanish into obscurity….

Simon Cowell, creator of X Factor, said: “Lucy is one of the most authentic, talented and brave people I have ever met.”
So why has no fucker ever heard of her until now?
11
WHO?Not interested dear.Smeg off.

Interested cunters may find her book to be found in the pound shop bargain bin two for one paired with Spare.
7
I thought I was seeing things when I noticed it in the window of a small bookshop the other day , but some jester has written a parody of Spare, called Spare Us
https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1749518/prince-harry-mocked-spare-parody-version

Or front and centre at your nearest Waterstones, the Tesco of literature.

A far better and more relevant strategy for her book title could be,
I was on X factor, Now I’m Homeless.
The story could then unfold, revealing the darker side of narcism, might shift a few more paperbacks as well as the exclusive right to sue X factor for not ensuring her protection.
You fkd it again luv, You could have been a

Those poor naive little shits (apart from Rick Waller and McManus Haystacks , the huge cunts).
You’d think a few mightve looked into the meat-grinder of the music industry a little.
It shows that the costestants are as bovine as the viewers.
To give Fat Reg his due he did say it was a bad way into the industry forbyoung kids. Most musicians gain fame through years of graft, gigs, and a few connections.
No wonder so many of these warblers end up on the heap of dejection.
Twat Cowell owes all of the girls an apology. If they wanted to be the next Whitney Houston they should fuck off and sing in a gospel choir for years, then learn how to sing in that style properly, and not practice nauseatingly overindulgent ‘melisma’ in front of their dress mirrors.
Silly bints.

Spot on Prime
“And I ah I will always love you ooh ooh but mostly love me and meeeeh its all about me and more meeeeh eeh me”
Was I good enough? Simon Ghoul , Lady Louie and Plastic Sharon, its so hard.
2
Aye CP.
Mariah Carey gets lots of flack, but she also sang for years in a gospel choir. As did Beyonce I believe.
Fair play, they did it the hard way. Learned to sing in that style properly over years.
Now, they think a woo-hooing in the Dog and Duck Friday night karaoke is their training for Shit Factor and instant stardom.
Stupid cunts.

Fuck me, what a horror. Anyone got the horn? No? Fuck off then Lucy. There might possibly be a job for a vampire scarer in Transylvania.

Semi mast.
3
Not a cunt. You can’t get raped during a massive career opportunity lose that and be a cunt later on telling your story. Hope she cashes in.
9
Still no chance of that happening again, you have to brown and smelly to qualify for a hotel room in this country now.
5
Does it count if you shit yourself?

Don’t know if I can agree with this cunting. There seems to be an assumption that being raped is an isolated event in life one simply gets over and moves on. A bit like stubbing your toe.
What impact has the rape has on her life? It’s not something people just move on from. Being raped like any kind of abuse leaves life long scars.
Can we be certain that her motives for revisiting the ugly event is purely to sell more copies of her book? Personally I think there’s probably more to it! The rapist has done his time by now and is getting on with his life, she’s living with it every day.
Maybe I’ve just gone soft in my old age.
15
Mumsnet is … No, it’s a fair comment.
I don’t wuite agree with the cunting either. It’s very cynical.
2
Caught this nom late. Yes, Sixdog my thoughts exactly. This could be a cathartic for her.
It would take a hard person to use something like rape as a means to getting their hands on coin. I suppose I’m just not that cynical.
7
Anyone in showbiz who uses a traumatic life episode to create an earner is a cunt.
She can at least argue that the perpetrator was convicted, but it’s still a cheap trick.
The amount of celebs who claim to have had a traumatic past is incredible and the stories always come out when they’re in the shit or on the make.
‘I was abused by a deceased relative who can’t now claim otherwise’
‘I was in an abusive relationship’
‘I only acted like a cunt because I had cancer, mental health issues, my dog died etc etc’
And the media lap it up. Because a bullshit story that can’t be proven either way is still a story.
No doubt there’s people out there who think they’re ‘stunning and brave’.

She’s not in showbiz though.
1
She’s not in showbiz?
Since 2011 she’s released 7 albums, had a top 40 single, and tours regularly, performing at the Isle of Wight and Glastonbury.
If she’s not in showbiz then I’m a Lammy’s uncle!
4
Releasing an album or playing a festival isn’t necessarily showbiz.

The world we live in now, innit? No sense of decorum. Why share every awful detail of your life with strangers? Rape? Fucking awful, I feel sorry for her but why share the gory details? It’s to sell a book it seems.
No cunt keeps themselves to themselves anymore. I don’t want to know your boyfriend forgot your mum’s birthday as though it’s the end of the world. I don’t give a toss that you have IBS and haven’t had a proper shit in months. Or that you’ve decided you prefer the sausage to the doughnut now.
Keep it to yourselves.
I think this book will not sell well because no cunt knows who she is.
It’s like those Onlyfans slags. They see a genuine model with her professional photos in exotic locations on Onlyfans. Then think they can also make a million a year from gullible sad men by showing their tits on their council flat sofa.
All they get is a tenner a year and their tits and flange on the internet forever more for their kids to get bullied over, the stupid fuckers.
11
‘I think this book will not sell well because no cunt knows who she is.’
On the contrary, go into you local WHSmith and look at the Tragic Lives section.
The women love this stuff, doesn’t matter if the author/subject is famous or not.’
Not being a snooty cunt but there’s likely a big overlap between Tragic Lives readership and X Factor/BGT/The Voice viewership.
I suppose the male version is ‘I’ became a hard enforcer bloke/criminal because my dad got pissed up smashed .me to bits and went into care and got raped by a labour councillor/Lib Dem MP’
As for OnlySlags, i think the vast majority (95-97%) earn less than £200 a week. The top few percent get all the attention, a massive social media ‘footprint’ (eugh!)and the cash of deluded fagg0ts fans.
In that way it’s like being in a band.
3
Hear hear. Stiff upper lip and crack on. It makes you stronger person and less gloom for the people around you.
2
Everyone associated with that show, should be transported to an island riddled with leprosy.
4
Let’s get one thing straight; rapists should be executed.
I don’t see how trying to monetize it helps, (other than her own bank balance).
If a story helps to prevent further atrocities, such as the victims of Paki grooming gangs, then it needs to be told. Especially when the police do fuck all, even after being given the evidence.
This tale of woe is trivialising a very serious problem.
6
Is it though? Depends on how the story is told.
1
Anything associated with short arse cowell should be avoided at all costs….💩

Simon Cowell is the main reason popular music these days is fucking shite…. He has dumbed music and talent down to such an extent and for so long that young people in particular don’t expect anything better.
9
Too right fenton. Bands – real bands – were killed off by that X-Factor Pop Idol shite. Now, a ‘band’ is seen as some shit like Little Mix. When I was a lad it was The Jam, Joy Division, The Police, Blondie or The Specials.
Cowell could have had groups – and good ones – on his TV vehicle. But instead he wanted narcissists, losers and freaks who would act up on air, so the judges could look ‘shocked’ and call security. All manufactured and staged to fuck, of course. None of his shows are about talent at all, never have been.
And the vogue for the ‘singer’ over the band has now left us with musical dog turds like Fatty Capaldi, Taylor Swift (although she has a nice arse), Ariana Grande-Cunt, Adele and the daddy of them all, Ed Sheercunt. Cowell indeed has a hell of a lot to answer for. The cunt.
11
The state of popular music is so bad now (I won’t say Rock ‘N’ Roll. Because Rock ‘N’ Roll is dead). It’s so bad now, one can almost look back in nostalagia at Oasis. Horrible as it is, they were the last British rock band who acted like a rock band.
Never been a fan, but I’d take them over Capaldi Adele and Sheercunt any time.
I’m also a little kinder to Miley Cyrus these days. Because that ‘Flowers’ wasn’t bad and her album cover gave me the horn.
5
It was always about making cowell shit loads of money and absolutely fuck all to do with music/ talent..
More fool the Idiot’s that go on the show….💩
3
Let’s not forget the other Simon in the diabolic duo… Fuller.
2
Cowell is a tiny part of an overall trend to make pop music more simplistic in composition (see Rick Beato’s video about it) and the lyrics more like dirty nursery rhymes.
Pop music is devoid of any artistic merit because the producers are not interested in art. Most of the shite that Beyonce, Rihanna etc. sing was cooked by old Scandinavian blokes with ponytails. They probably use an algorithm to generate these primitive utterances these days.
Glastonbury is just an extension of this cultural dumbing down.
7
I find it interesting how often my contribution to this site can be summed up in a single word: where? what? or, in this case, who?
4
I would love to witness Simple Cow- Heel beaten about the head until it resembled something anywhere near a normal shape.
3
This cunt with the cornflake packet head, is also in the same bracket to a rapest, by acknowledging shite that isn’t worth listening to coming from females who need to improve on their talent from experts.
1
Agreed. Drawn out melisma, shrieking and bellowing is applauded by this dull cunts.
1
The bloke that did it should get media attention for having the bottle to go anywhere near that hideous mess in the first place. He’d be a cert for the special forces for such a display of bravery. I wouldn’t touch it, even with MNC’s.
3
He’s been sent back to india.
Rape isn’t about sex or attractiveness.
A common misconception.
3
I don’t quite agree with this cunting.
Her earnings from the singing career if she every had one and this book will likely be modest. Maybe it’s therapeutic? I suspect this site is for many cunters.
If we could monetise our insane ramblings, many would.
She’s no longer famous. She’s a normal bird, looking to share an ordeal from her. It’ll go onto the shelves of the tragic Lives section in WHSmiths and make a bit of money.
To say that’s cashing in on a traumatic and immoral is cynical to the point of delusion and devoid of empathy. It’s unfortunate that a lot of ordinary women seem to get a cunting for doing barely anything wrong.
Before anyone accuses me of it, i do;
I really fancy her and I want her to breastfeed me and my sons, who I will name Klaatu and Kuato.
See you all on mumsnet.
(BTW he hotel porter rapist was an Indian chap who was later deported. I think the BBC missed that fact.)

Even the most rich and famous tarts pull the rape card. Ladyboy Gaga and Madogga (who changes the story of her ‘rape’ every time she mentions it) are always doing it. They don’t want to be left behind in the ‘Me Too I Suffered Feminazi Me Too Competition’. Don’t know about Gaga, but I think Madogga is talking out of her arse and lying. Claims she was ‘raped’, but then joyfully simulates rape in her ‘Sex’ book and then works with convicted rapist Mike Tyson. Any publicity is good publicity for that old slagwagon. Rape included.
And I do hate cunts who cash in on tragedy or misfortune. That Kate McCann bitch. Telling the press about the ‘thoughts’ she had about her ‘abducted’ daughter being sexually abused and putting in detail. All for a big payday, of course. She makes me fucking sick to my boots.
7
Kate McCann said summat like she thinks about how her daughter’s ‘perfect vagina’ was destroyed.
Fuck me, how fucked up is that?
I dunno though…I guess you could lose it if your daughter got kidnapped (and almost certainly killed) by a n o nce, but part of me has always felt that they may have just covered up an accidental death. Dogs don’t lie and all that.
2
I’m extremely proud to say I have never seen a single talent show since Oppurtunity Knocks and barring some brain rotting disease I never will.
What’s happened to the British stiff upper lip and keeping quiet who the fuck is interested in anyone else’s problems got enough of me own.
5
The media started encouraging people to cry and share in public over the death of Diana Spencer.
A right old grief-wank.
I remember getting sneers from girls in sixth form because I didn’t sign the book of condolence. I wasn’t suitably grief-stricken for the dozy cunts.
Social media has made it all so much more performative and pathetic.
2
The media simply followed where Satan led.
On the morning of her death he made this long winded cynical statement which set the media ball rolling:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/special/politics97/diana/blairreact.html
“She was the People’s Princess and that is how she will stay, how she will remain in our hearts and our memories for ever.”
My dad, on the other hand, was more to the point:
“Good riddance.”
LOL.

Surprised any one would rape it with a face like that.

Rape and shag are not interchangeable.

Noticed that Rylan Shergar-Clark’s name was mentioned. He should have all his dentistry removed. Aubergine-syrupped twat.
