A well known model is know known as Tamsin le Vann on this site following a request from her to remove her real name and similar aliases.

We'd appreciate it if posters can use the listed name and avoid using her real name in posts to the forum from now on.

Thanks.
Phil

For what reason does ****** want her unreal name used on the site?

Did she give any reason that you can share with us?

I presume that she has visited the site, any other comments?

Why not stop her photo as well ? (some one draw a moustache and dark glasses on it!)
Claire fan should become Tamsin Fan?
(This is starting to get paranoid and hysterical)
Isn't there a site that has her real name on it?
To be clear, is her real name Claire M*******?

The site's still there under her name. Maybe she hasn't posted Brit Boy yet.

People's circumstances change and perhaps sometimes they later regret choices made earlier in their careers. We were asked originally to remove information from the forum - which we did, especially as it contravened the FAQ (I know Britboy has also complied with a similar request). We were then asked to remove her page completely, but she has kindly agreed to a name change as a compromise. Difficult as it will be to achieve, I totally respect her wish for a lower profile.

I can't comment on whether Britboy has been asked to take down his site, but you'll notice that there's no longer a link to it from here...

As there can be no legal basis for a request to take the information away (insofar as it's correct - and doesn't endanger
national security) we must assume this is a noble and freely chosen course of action by the site maintainers.

I hope nothing bad or serious (like a religious conversion) has happened to Tamsin - who I must say, from her performing persona, was the last person you would expect to be bothered by this information being public. I suspect (and hope) the matter is one of convenience and practical affairs rather than embarassment or angst.

If, on the other hand, Tamsin was actually working for MI5 all along, and national security *is* at stake ... one can only hope her bosses don't read a.f.tvx.

Actually, I'm not entirely sure of the legal position. The data protection act means you need permission to put up any personal information that can be used to identify someone, a name and picture would fall into that category. I really don't know how it applies to this kind of site - I wouldn't want to find out in a court of law though!

I think it's also fair to say, none of us want to upset any of the girls by what we put up here - it's in everyones interests to try to keep up good relations if we can - which is why we made the change.

Like you though, I was surprised. I always imagined the first such request would be from one of the 'one-offs'.

It was the name used on 'Cumming to Ibiza' cast list. For a character named Claire if I'm not mistaken. Maybe she liked it.It also beats the other aka Sasha Suxx.
