Hollywood star Samuel L Jackson spotted in Herne Bay

His many roles have made him one of the highest grossing actors at the box office, and his millionaire lifestyle usually sees him mixing with the rich and famous in exotic locations.

But A-list actor Samuel L. Jackson (pictured right), famous for covering his bald head with a flat cap, is rumoured to have stayed for 15 minutes at Lou Lou’s hairdressers in Herne Bay High Street last Wednesday before shooting off to a secret hideaway.

The rumours escalated after a plea for sightings of the megastar was put on the Herne Bay Town Partners website.

Town co-ordinator Chris West posted an article saying Jackson had been spotted at a local hairdressers and invited people to email him if they had seen the actor.

He said: “An informer told me he was at Lou Lou’s and his wife was having her hair cut. Someone then told me he had been seen in the William Street car park.

“I legged it out of the office with my camera but he was gone.

“People who saw him say they are convinced it was him. Obviously I can’t be sure myself.”

Jackson, whose many films include Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park and Star Wars, was allegedly mobbed on the same day in Canterbury.

Reports suggest he was visiting the cathedral when he was spotted by a crowd of fans.

Cathedral spokesman Chris Robinson: “I’ve never heard of him. He sounds like a High Court judge.”

    Mr Jackson has NOT been in the UK since June - if you wish to spot him you will find him on location in New York. Please check facts before publishing them...

    And what makes your statement saying he's in New York a FACT? I saw Clint Eastwood at Howletts a few years ago and had a bore tell me he COULDN'T have been as he was in Africa at the time. Sadly for the bore I had 11 photos, a signature on my Aspinall playing cards AND a news crew from LWT were there too. Have you checked your facts?

    By Joe Walker? What, the same Joe Walker who once wrote a story about gary Glitter being 'spotted' in Herne Bay. I think there's some kind of pattern emerging here.
