Mark Simpson answers - "Is Morrissey 'metrosexual'?"
posted by davidt on Monday October 24 2005, @09:00AM

 Someone in Estonia writes:
Mark Simpson, author of 'Saint Morrissey' and also coiner of the term 'metrosexual,'was interviewed by 'Metro' a British commuter newspaper recently and was asked whether Morrissey was a metrosexual:

Mark Simpson: "No, he's more transsexual. He's Rita Tushingham trapped in the body of a rather handsome, retired midfielder circa 1961."

    Why does everything this man say.. (Score:0)
    ..come directly from what Morrissey has said?

    Does he think he's paying tribute by being a plagiarist?

      that man is such a snivelling fawning little fellow

      He is so utterly conventional and so terribly drab

      He wants so desperately to be interesting and original: he wants to be Morrissey.

      However, he is not. He is a less-than-interesting wannabe suedehead two-bit left wing journalist with a taste for cheap plagiarism and lurking on morrissey discussion boards.

      .. sorry Mark, every Morrissey devotee will never forgive you for using that phrase 'The Beautiful Bastards' time and time again in your book.

      Oh, and labelling Morrissey 'more of a Transsexual' does you no favours either.
