Morrissey mocks Minogue and Bush - BreakingNews.ie

British rocker Morrissey used his headlining slot at a UK music festival to mock pop superstar Kylie Minogue's OBE award.

The Australian singer was honoured on Thursday when she was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for her services to music and entertainment.

However, former The Smiths frontman Morrissey has expressed his disapproval of the move, sarcastically telling revellers at the Wireless Festival in London on Friday how he was "thrilled to death" about Minogue's honour.

The singer - dubbed "The Pope of Mope" for his miserable lyrics - further mocked the star at the event, quipping to the crowd: "I'm sure you'll agree, it was completely deserved."

It wasn't only Minogue who vegetarian Morrissey berated at the show - he also lashed out at US President George W. Bush, and meat-eaters during his hour-long set.

      This is morrissey, he's honest, he says what other people only think because they're too afraid to speak out, good on him. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, i was there and most people cheered when he said them, that speaks volumes.

          The only good thing she ever did was the single

                Kylie is the most expressive woman I've ever seen, about her sexual drive and affection. She's been lucky to have very supportive people around her, protecting her from those that can't respect that.

                You people that say she's just tits and ass don't understand how rare it is for a woman to express her primal sexuality and affection to the extent that she has. Most women ham it up without really feeling it. Kylie's for real when it comes to that animal presence, a fully present woman emotionally, well, it's rare, and even rarer for a man to be fully present, and that's probably why many men write her off as just t and a. They're just so far gone emotionally and sexually, out of touch. Just the fact that most of you believe it's men who have the big sex drive between the sexes, tells me how out of touch most of you all really are. Most women don't get Kylie either though. So far gone, gonzo. Out of touch. Full of falseness.

                Where is the feeling?

                The simple sad truth is, Kylie has released some very very good pop records. Nothing more, nothing less. Records like 'Spinning Around' or 'Better The Devil'. And to be completely honest if these very same songs had been recorded by Sandie Shaw, Diana Doors, Cilla Black or Twinkle in 1965, they would be amongst Morrisseys favourites. It's just because she is a current artist that he fails to notice the good songs. Of couse if she was a naff 'indie' artist who named checked him as often as possible, , and had well below par tunes, he'd be all over her.
