You're so vain...

you probably think this song, this website, and in fact this radio station is all about you! This is Capital's hunt for London's vainest people! Maybe it's a vain ex who drove you mad, or into debt, with their insane demands. Or perhaps you managed to overlook their vanity and decided to stay with them.

Either way, Johnny Vaughan and Lisa Snowdon want to hear about them - the best comments will be read out on-air. We've been flooded with your suggestions already, but don't hold back, let us know who these ridiculous people are in the form below, and let's find London's vainest people.

Got a photo of the 'vainsters' in action - posing, pouting or preening themselves? Get it added to our vain gallery by emailing the shot and some details on them editorial@capitalfm.com

You're so vain

  • In addition to moisturising and cleansing my sister does an inner beauty dance. She stands in front the mirror naked every morning and  sings 'check me out' for 10mins.
  • Just recently found out my dad wears my little sis foundation! She was wondering why it ran low so quickly.
  • The lady at my work who pouts and checks herself out never uses loo just the mirror. Shameful. She knows who she is!
  • I used to date a guy who spent 2hrs in the bathroom every morning. He used heaps of that horse mane sleek shine stuff way b4 ppl saw it on blades of glory! He would pluck the hairs off his chest & toes for example.
  • Jonny, I use 'Elisabeth Arden, Visible Difference' after an ex- girl friend gave me a jar for a Valentines gift three years ago.
  • My son is so vain that when you talk to him and there is a mirror around, he will talk to his reflection instead of to you!
  • My daughtr davina. She's 15 and won't take the bus to school if it's raining. Makes me drop her off so her hair doesnt get wrecked.
  • My ex would put my bronzer on his abs, pecks and jaw to define his muscles, and would ask me if it looked ok before going to the gym!
  • I had a boyfriend who was so vain when my mum helped me move out I had to tell her to put all the cosmetics back because they were his.
  • My dad likes to check his appearance so much he'll use windows or even microwaves to check what he looks like. I'd say that's pretty vain and a pretty embarrassing parenting too!!
  • People who pluck eyebrows and chin hair on the train. . . It's wrong!
  • Hello my little brother harry is really vain. Takes him 30 minutes to do his hair in the morning. He works at kwick fit.
  • My sister puts on full make up even on days when she is not leaving the house just in case someone knocks on her door
  • My sister is so vain that at times she washes her hair 5 times before a night out
  • I put vaseline on my eyelashes b4 i go 2 bed to keep them moist n shiny is that vain???

Know anyone worse than this? Tell us in the form above!

  4. I felt compelled to write as half of the population of my city (London, that is) fits that bill.

  7. i dont think i am vain but my sister certainly is! Even if its a busy tube station or theme park, she has to get her mirror out and take a quick look! She can't go anywhere without laddeling her makeup on and she spends years infront of the mirror holding us up in the morning getting her hair just right! She is hard work!

  10. Must be my ex-husband. Just turned 60 and is undergoing a life crisis. Dyes his hair, which was once black and is now grey, though it's thnning on top. Loves to take a look in the miror when he thinks no-one is looking. Even his dear, now departed mum, said he was vain (and also selfish!) Always on the lookout for a woman, but she must have money and plenty of it for caribbean holidays.
