NME response to Morrissey / Conor McNicholas hotel skirmish
posted by davidt on Thursday May 15 2008, @01:00PM

 Story picked up by the press. Uncleskinny posted the link in the forums (original post):

Pandora: Corden reveals all - The Independent

Mozza's room service

Waxy croissants and burnt bacon rind at dawn! Pandora hears of a fresh skirmish between Morrissey and his magazine nemesis, the NME.

The Mancunian miserabilist is suing the publication after his remarks on immigration were splashed across its cover. So he was displeased to discover that he and the NME's editor, Conor McNicholas, were booked into the same Los Angeles auberge last week.

Mozza's fixer Merck Mercuriadis swiftly intervened, ensuring the bickering pair would not share a roof for long. "I have a very good relationship with the hotel, and when I explained the situation they agreed it would not be appropriate for Conor to stay," says Merck.

McNicholas was "courteously" dislodged. Gloats the NME: "Thanks to Morrissey's people, Conor got upgraded to a penthouse in a sister hotel."

This is a boring story, certainly not newsworthy.

      Not sure who's more childish here? Come on guys let's get past this and move on so that this site can be dedicated to newsworthy items...aka new album, summer tour, etc. Where's a good "Swallowneck" post when you need one (LOL)!

      Slight exaggeration me thinks - more like he stumbled across an old copy of Penthouse at the back of one the drawers in his hotel room.

      The poor old NME (Score:1)
      The depths to which the NME has sunk was nicely illustrated this week in theor wacky stunt to send a car to the prison to collect released dope-fiend Pete Docherty. If anyone remained under the illusion that the NME was now anything other than an elitist 'mate' magazine of all things indie then this should settle the argument. The NME was always at its best when it stood outside and took the piss - it's now on the inside and taking the pissed home.

        what a bunch of losers they are

        I don't care where Conor Mc Dickless stayed, and
        I definately know that Morrissey didn't pay for
        Mc Dickless penthouse suite, so we don't care less in which suite he stayed

        I'm more interested in when he has to face court for his written lies about Morrissey

            Mozz will have his day in court and all will be well.
