N-Dubz star Dappy 'sorry' over text message threats

N-Dubz star Dappy has apologised to a woman for sending her threatening text messages, after she contacted BBC Radio 1 expressing her dislike for the band.

Chloe Moody texted The Chris Moyles Show while the band were being interviewed, calling them "losers" and labelling Dappy "repulsive".

But she was shocked to receive a message the following day from rapper Dappy saying: "Your [sic] gonna die".

The BBC said Dappy took down Ms Moody's number without producers' knowledge.

Ms Moody, from Boston, Lincolnshire, texted the Radio 1 show while in the car with her mum.

She said she was "shocked" to receive the text messages and phone calls from the rapper the following day.

"I missed two calls from a number I didn't recognise, so I texted back asking who it was, and I got a text saying 'your gonna die'."

The message went on to say: "U sent a very bad msg towards Ndubz on The Chris Moyels Show yesterday Morning and for that reason u will never be left alone!!! If u say sorry I will leave you alone."

Ms Moody added: "I was wracking my brains trying to work out who it was, as I didn't tell anyone I had texted the radio show.

"I didn't think it would be him because I seriously didn't think he'd be bothered."

When Ms Moody did eventually answer his call she said she faced further insults.

"He was just ranting, saying 'why are you saying this about me?'. If I had had a number one single and got a message from a nobody to a radio station I would not be too concerned. It obviously hit a nerve."

Despite making an apology through his management, who also offered her free N-Dubz concert tickets, Ms Moody said Dappy was yet to text her personally to say sorry.

"Last November, Dappy joined Schools Secretary Ed Balls to launch a Government campaign against "cyber-bullying" over mobile phones and the internet.

At the time, Mr Balls welcomed the release of an N-Dubz track called "RU Cyber Safe" as part of anti-bullying week and hailed the group as "great ambassadors" in the fight against bullies. "

ouch.

Sammo Hungover (Noodle Vague), Friday, 15 January 2010 23:27 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah, future lyric right there. And/or question for him on the final round of "Never mind the buzzcocks"

Mark G, Friday, 15 January 2010 23:46 (fourteen years ago) link

After this he might be lucky to end up on the lineup round.
"Is it Dappy? Dippy? Dopey? Drippy? Or... a Womble in human form?"

I'm sorry?

Clownish clothes, The grammar and writing skills of a junior school child and those horrible, horrible records...

Please peel away the layers of the N-Dubz onion for me, because all I see is an idiot.

Blew it on unpunctuated first sentence and missing "me" in the second tbh.

Sammo Hungover (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 16 January 2010 00:20 (fourteen years ago) link

I don't normally comment on sockpuppet issues but having checked I think this might be a real live Spectator comments box type.

You guys...

The Broken Brothers, Saturday, 16 January 2010 00:26 (fourteen years ago) link

missing "me" already?

Mark G, Saturday, 16 January 2010 00:47 (fourteen years ago) link

speaking of grammar and writing skills, is "...Ms Moody said Dappy was yet to text her personally to say sorry." standard UK newspaper grammar?
sounds weird to these new world ears....

m0stlyClean, Saturday, 16 January 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link

five months pass...

Bunking trains, telling fibs and taking legal highs, the fearless law-breaking of N-Dubz:

Rapper Dappy of chart-topping group N-Dubz has revealed he routinely gives wrong information to police whenever he is stopped and searched.

"Up to this day we still give the wrong name and address," the rap star said.

Dappy - real name Dino Contostavlos - makes the admission in a Channel 4 documentary called Being N-Dubz.

In the programme, to be broadcast on Monday, the 23-year-old Londoner also talks about how he used to dodge train fares but is now "legit".

Policeman: "What's your name sonny?"
Dappy: "er... I'm the Duke of Edinburgh!"

Policeman: "You mean to tell me that you're a man of Greek extraction, known for making embarrassing gaffes in public?"

Filing clerks find a portal into the mind of Dappy. 15 minutes after entering, they are dropped onto Camden High Street.

I wonder how much money Mazher Mahmood has cost the CPS in collapsed court cases by now.

Wristy Hurlington (ShariVari), Monday, 21 July 2014 13:25 (nine years ago) link

tbqh, it seemed a clear case of entrapment in the first place.

So, will the Daily Mail run one of their standard "why was this case ever brought" pages that they tend to use in cases of celeb 'innocent of rape' court verdicts?
