Born Steven Patrick Morrissey in Lancashire in 1959, the frequently outspoken former Smiths frontman, singer and author turns 58 tomorrow. His bookish song lyrics were hailed as the finest in rock music, yet his novel ‘List Of The Lost’ won the ‘Bad Sex In Fiction’ award in 2015.

==Notes==
Additional questions from the print edition:
'''LAST FILM YOU SAW?'''
''[[Mention::Mystic River]]''... it flowed nicely.
'''LAST BOOK YOU READ?'''
''Poor Folk'' by [[Mention::Fyodor Dostoyvesky]]. Obviously I didn't understand a word of it.
'''LAST GIG YOU WENT TO?'''
[[Mention::Dick Gregory]] [the US civil rights activist], but he was a a bit grumpy. He likes to put people in their place. I don't have one.
'''LAST TV SHOW YOU LOVED?'''
I don't ever watch TV because of the incessant [[Mention::McDonald's]] and [[Mention::KFC]] death commercials, which I find immoral.
==Unpublished Question==
Additional question posted on Jesse's Twitter (link posted by Famous When Dead) and Mando's wife's Instagram ([https://www.morrissey-solo.com/threads/inside-the-head-of-morrissey-daily-mail.140151/ source]}:
A message from #Morrissey... Although the Daily Mail in London printed a q&a with Morrissey yesterday they refused to print the following response:
'''Mail: Which person do you most dislike?'''
Morrissey: [[Mention::Theresa May]] for saying "I fully support fox-hunting." She doesn't realize that foxes are mothers and fathers and brothers and sisters.
