Tara Stout
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tara Stout is a comedian born who was born in Clapham, a suburb of London, in 1970.
Though she has been appearing on the comedy circuit in London for several years, she has recently achieved a certain tabloid notoriety. This is due to her being linked to Gary Lineker as his marriage was breaking up [1], streaking naked through Soho when facing eviction and most recently being accused of stalking Crystal Palace Chairman Simon Jordan.
Stout also formerly worked as a reporter for the BBC however since leaving that position in around 2000 her career has been somewhat chequered. She recently served five weeks in Holloway Prison for breaching a harassment order, saying of the experience 'I didn't have such a bad time in prison, it was a good laugh. I had more fun in prison than I ever did working for the BBC.' She represented herself in her recent prosecution and was successful in avoiding going to prison again, instead being given a suspended sentence and 200 hours community service.
