“My Missus Saved Me!” Says David Campbell

Love, is there anything it can’t do? Probably, but it’s best not to think too hard about the topic and just let yourself get swept away by romantic and dramatic statements like “my wife saved me from dying of an overdose outside the Viper Room” from showbiz types like David Campbell.

Reports The Advertiser:

David Campbell credits his wife of seven months with saving his life in a candid profile in tomorrow’s Adelaide* magazine. “If I hadn’t met Lisa, I would have ended up a washed up son-of-a-somebody in LA, addled on drugs outside the Viper Room,” Campbell, the Cabaret Festival’s new artistic director, says.

Clearly I added the “dying” bit (River Phoenix flashback!) but “addled” is highly unpleasant too, I’m sure.

David’s also pretty pleased with dad Jimmy Barnes.

“Emotionally and musically, I have been closer to him over the last 12 months than I have in my whole life,” he reveals in the exclusive interview. “I can’t wait to have kids and get him to take care of them. He’ll be a brilliant grandad.”

To celebrate David’s interview lovefest, let’s watch a preview of his live DVD featuring plenty of classic soul hits that didn’t need covering in the first place!

Seriously, people of Australia. Buy this cd instead. God I’m a bitter coolsie, aren’t I?

SORRY DAVID CAMPBELL! EVERYONE SHOULD BUY YOUR RECORD, I AM GLAD YOU LOVE YOUR DAD AND I HOPE YOU DON’T USE THE MONEY YOU MAKE FROM THE GOOD LOVIN’ DVD SALES TO GET ‘ADDLED’, GIVE MY LOVE TO THE MISSUS!
