                But, I have no doubt that the photos for the new album will be wonderful. After all, he is only ripping off the very best celebrity photographer there ever was.

                Thank God, Mr. Gorman, knows who to take his cues from.

                Whatever happened to good old-fashioned HTML? I was greeted by "Loading" on that site more times than in an afternoon of Amstrad gaming!!! If there's one thing that pisses me off it's websites that think flash is the best thing since sliced bread! If you must be made to wait for something to load it should be worth the wait, all nobs and whistles and rotating vector graphics and explosions and dancing cats and so on, not this dreary, brown-grey collection of tat. I saw about 3 of his photos in 5 minutes because of loading time. Pathetic!

                It looks okay, but pretty celebtastic, Bailey-wannabe. What would have been interesting is something that wasn't in black and white- which is a bit of a cliche. Well that's what I think anyway.

                I love black & white pics. They hide what you don't really want shown but can show more of the "inner you" at the same time.
                I'm sure it's going to be a mostly lovely pic indeed! After all look who's the subject.

                    too bad that Morrissey didn't ask Tillmans (or another young, fresh, edgy, contemporary artist!) to take his portrait for the cover: instead an old faggot obsessed with naked youth took it.

                            Word is Gorman is, as we speak, on his way to Geneva to take a picture of Alain Delon, who's lived in the quiet Swiss town ever since he fled the rumble and tumble of the French capital. Gorman is planning on using a telelens, as Alain has reportedly again been very irritable of late.
