Jackie Clune
Jackie Clune (born 13 December 1965) is a British entertainer and writer. She became established through her Edinburgh Fringe cabaret shows and 1995 Karen Carpenter tribute act before graduating to mainstream acting.
Early life
Jackie Clune was the third of four children born in Harlow, Essex, to Irish Roman Catholic parents: her late father Don Clune (died August 2010) was a buyer for a computer firm, her mother a nurse. The writer Maggie Clune is her sister. Jackie graduated with a degree in drama from the University of Kent.
Career
On graduation from university, she became a full-time drama lecturer at the Royal Holloway College for at least six years and a BBC London radio journalist. She started singing in bands part-time, but between sets as a DJ she developed a facility in chatting to the audience. This led a friend to suggest that she could create a Karen Carpenter tribute performance, with singing; this she worked on and took to the Edinburgh Festival in 1995, where she was spotted by a West End producer.

Jack La Lanne
by: Guttermouthblame it on la lanne
when something goes wrong
that sweatsuited scapegoat
for the exercising bomb
put the blame on jack la lanne
he's our man
my lawn turned yellow
my goldfish died
i squirted some ben-gay
right in my eye
he's the fucking cause
that sweatsuited scapegoat
with the atomic sock
when he exercises me
i know he doesn't shower
when i see him beatin' meat
