9 Things You Didn't Know About Tom Jones

9. He is a High School Drop Out and Still Married to His First Love

tom jones and wife As mentioned, when most guys were just hoping to get through high school and get laid he accomplished all that before the age of 16, at which time he realized school had no more to offer him so he dropped out and started to raise a family, mainly because there was no sex education offered at that time and he's Tom Jones. He then married the woman that bore him his son and they are still married but one can only imagine that she must be one of the most understanding women on the planet. After all, she's married to Tom Jones.

8. He Can Dance if He Wants To

Check out this clip from 1967. If you can't wait for the dancing payoff, then jump right to 1m15 and prepare to be 'Joned' away. To you and me, it may look like he's dancing like a spastic monkey on espresso but for some reason, this worked. One can only assume that the sixties were a different, simpler time where being Tom Jones meant you didn't need a choreographer you just needed to show up and get the cameras rolling.

Been there, done that but not too well. Continually financially restrained. Now (and still) lives in Western Canada and talks some hockey and parenting on ogieoglethorpe.blogspot.ca and watching trailers on 2minutemovies.blogspot.ca.
