I was going to start a thread about this, but I guess it fits here: a friend of mine was dining at a London seafood restaurant during the recent Troxy/Brixton week, and he was sitting one table away from Morrissey, who was dining with a few acquaintances.
He saw Morrissey order and devour the Dover sole. I remember another fishy story (from what seems like a fairly reliable source) here a few years ago. I'm forced to say that now I have to believe that Morrissey is not a true vegetarian, and hasn't been one for some time.
My friend is utterly reliable and a big Morrissey fan, and I have no reason to believe that he is either mistaken or pulling my leg.
It's not that eating fish is an unforgivable sin, but Morrissey depicts himself (and allows himself to be depicted) as the ultimate, hardcore, ethical vegetarian. If he really does eat fish, this is a load of utter nonsense.
It is odd that he would eat fish in public, but Morrissey is a man of strange impulses and often inexplicable drives.
