Before they were famous....again

Ever the ones to embarrass people more fortunate, the big news at twelvty can exclusively reveal photos of our very own Poncho Tonto circa what looks like 1985 but maybe have in reality been 2001. If it was 1985...what is your secret Tonto!!??

Before her illustrious career as a journalist and professional amazing person, Tonto dabbled in many jobs. Here we see her in her short lived career as a backing singer for Dublin band the coldspoon conspiracy.


"I was young. I did it for the love of money...and the free drinks."

Pictured with her as fellow Sponettes, Bonnie O'Neill, the Superfly spy and designer to the stars, and hotel entrapenuer Jean (shes so hot she don't even need a surname). After they parted company with the 'Spoons (after one gig), they went on to enjoy a number 45 hit with their cover of the Knack classic My Sharona.....in Germany. They called it quits in 2004 but remain good friends. There are talks of a comeback tour for early 2007 if they could only find Jean.
