• We really ARE overdue for a George Michael assfucking scandal, aren't we? Don't worry, it's about to get much better: the former pop star was caught having a "seedy liason" in a public park with the hot piece of twat pictured at right. 58-year-old unemployed van drivers who live with their cat sure are irresistible, aren't they?

I think this guy was one of the models in the Freedom video.
speaking of which, there might be a good banner/tag-line for GM in that song:
"all we have to do now, is take these lies and make them true somehow."
Uh, Mark Cuban. Pay us first, then we'll give you the work. Now we know how you got so rich, you ripoff artist.
As for Van Man, I'd do him before I'd do GM.
Why doesn't someone hunt down that makeup artist George was involved with in the early 90's and interview her? I think her name was Kathy Jeung, she's in the I want your sex video. Was she just a beard or what?
on the other hand, imo george michael released his 2 best solo songs ever a year or 2 ago, 'flawless [go to the city]' and 'amazing.'
I am a massive WHAM! fan & I recommend all their LPs but if you liked GM's other, numerous solo hits, check out the above mentioned 2004 45's they will set your booty in motion.....so to speak ;)
"Was she just a beard or what?"
Ummm, yeah.
Maybe Russell was thinking about the poor African orphans when dangling a Benjamin in front of a Penthouse Executive Club dancer for a BJ while smoking some spliffs in the VIP room with a couple of hangers-on?
His conscience was killing him, poor guy. But hey, at least he's vegan!
Oh George Michael...from that sexy scruffy guy to that creepy unshaven puffy guy panting in the bushes what a long unsanitary trip it's been. He needs to keep some hand sanitizer at the ready on his keychain.
Norm Kirtland is wearing a red shirt. Maybe HE should play "Captain Read."
What exactly is Russel Simmons going to due? Dress all the starving children in Africa in Phat Farm? Pimp their ride?
Re: Regal Union Square - maybe the smell is from RAT PISS.
the last time i was there i made an awful discovery- the building and the theatres are totally infested with mice. i saw two scampering down and across the aisle during the movie, and one that raced into a popcorn bag near the wall when i STEPPED ON IT after taking my feet down from underneath me at the end of the show. when i told one of my friends about this the next time we were looking up movies, she told me that once, trying to exit strategically down the stairs instead of braving the hordes on the escalators, she and her boyfriend encountered a frenzied breeding ground of rodents at the bottom of the stairwell. oh, the horror- it's bad enough having to sit in the dark with the knowledge that the 16-year-old behind you is totally getting a hand-job without having to worry about rats crawling over your feet. oh, and if i'm spending $10.50 to sit in a room, i'd like it not to be infested with vermin.
