The Best Thing You Can Do Is

When Culture Club Broke Up, I Hadn't Been Going Out A Lot Because We'd Been Working All The Time, So I Suddenly Had This Period Of Leisure. And It Was Just Around The Time That The Whole Acid House Thing Kicked Off In London.

I Am Thinking Of George Michael's Family, Friends And Fans. He Was So Loved And I Hope He Knew It Because The Sadness Today Is Beyond Words. Devastating. What A Beautiful Voice He Had And His Music Will Live On As A Testament To His Talent. I Can't Believe He Is Gone. I Hope The Buddha Will Hold Him In His Arms. Nmrk.

The Taboo Scene Was A Kind Of Deconstructed Version Of The New Romantics. The Taboo Crowd Was Using A Lot Of The Visual Ideas That Had Already Been Used. I Remember The First Time I Spotted Leigh Bowery And Trojan Parading Around In Clubs: They Were In Their "pakis From Outer Space" Look, And The Makeup Was Quite Similar To One Of My Old Looks, Because I Was Quite Fond Of Wearing Blue, Green, Or Yellow Foundation, And So I Was Pretty Dismissive Of Them At First.

And Being Gay Isn't So Easy, Either I've Always Said That If Anyone Ever Thought I Was Straight They Must Need Glasses - But When I Finally Came Out And Said, "yes, I Do Sleep With Men And I'm Gay," Yeah, I Lost Record Sales. There's No Question - Big, Big Time.
