Today model, jewellery designer and TV presenter Glenda Gilson dropped by so Mairead could ask her - Tell Me Something I Don't Know!

Glenda shared a very interesting an unexpected story - she was in the Michael Jackson documentary 'Leaving Neverland'! When she went to see Michael Jackson in Páirc Uí Chaoimh back in 1988, Glenda ended up being invited to dance on stage.

She tried to find footage of this for years, but never had any luck. Then it turned up in the most unexpected place - when the documentary aired earlier this year, Glenda spotted herself (and her very 80's side-ponytail) in the footage used from various concerts over the years.

They also chatted about the sad end of Xposé, Glenda's son Bobby who celebrated his first birthday this week, and her jewellery line that includes a necklace Mairead hasn't taken off since she got it in March!

In some good news, Glenda is back at work in Virgin Media but she couldn't tell us exactly what for. All will be revealed soon!

Glenda has teamed up with Maxi Zoo for their 'Give Paw' campaign that aims to raise €55,000 for Dogs Trust with their bracelets. You can pick one up in any Maxi Zoo store, and 100% of the proceeds will go to Dogs Trust.
