    1 - KAISER CHIEFS

    The Kaiser Chiefs came to us wanting a different kind of album launch, together we ended up playing around with what an album is. It's quite hard to express how much fun it was.

    2 - MILLS & BOON

    Self portraits of me (Alex) and my boyfriend Ross. 

    Sometimes we sit for hours staring at a sea shell. Other times he'll hold me by the neck in front of the Pyramids. But there's nothing we like more than NEARLY kissing each other near some horses. I always try to look hot in front of him so he doesn't leave me.

    PHOTOGRAPHED WITH THE HELP OF THE AMAZING OLI KELLETT

    THEY GOT A LOT OF PRESS. WHEN ROSS AGREED TO POSE FOR ME, I DON'T THINK HE EXPECTED SO MANY PEOPLE TO SEE THE RESULT...

    3 - VIRGIN COMPLAINT LETTER

    IN JANUARY 2009 I (OLI) WROTE A LETTER TO RICHARD BRANSON AFTER A SERIOUSLY DISGUSTING MEAL ON A FLIGHT. WITH HELP FROM TWITTER, FACEBOOK AND BLOGS IT ALL GOT A BIT OUT OF HAND.

     

    THE MOST SURREAL MOMENT WAS WATCHING A FEATURE ON THE BBC NEWS, WITH AN ACTOR READING OUT PARTS OF THE LETTER. BECAUSE MY MOBILE NUMBER WAS ON THE LETTER, I BECAME A TARGET FOR EVERY MORON WITH MOBILE PHONE. AT ONE POINT I ANGRILY ANSWERED THE PHONE AT 3 IN THE MORNING ONLY TO FIND MYSELF LIVE ON AUSTRALIAN RADIO. A STAGE PLAY ABOUT THE LETTER IS CURRENTLY RUNNING IN MUMBAI. BY THE END OF THE YEAR IT WAS THE TELEGRAPH'S MOST READ NEWS STORY OF 2009.

    4 - JAMES' FACE

    I (OLI) LIKE GOING ONTO MY FRIENDS FACEBOOK PAGE, TAKING PHOTOS OF HIM, CHANGING HIS FACE SLIGHTLY THEN PUTTING THEM BACK UP ON FACEBOOK. HE DOESN'T LIKE ME DOING THIS.

    MUCH TO HIS HORROR, THIS WENT VIRAL. IT BECAME THE NUMBER 1 STORY ON REDDIT AND HAD OVER 100,000 VIEWS IN ONE NIGHT ALONE. IT'S NOW HAD OVER 6 MILLION UNIQUE HITS ON THIS SITE AND IS FEATURED ALL OVER THE INTERNET. WE DECLINED TO APPEAR ON THE FRANK SKINNER SHOW. THE PHRASE "THOSE ARE NOT MY TEETH AND THAT IS NOT MY BUSHBABY" HAS BEEN PRINTED ON T-SHIRTS AND HE'S KNOWN ON CERTAIN FORUMS AS "BUSHBABY GUY". BRILLIANT.
