Who says he was a homosexual prostitute? Gay men are easy marks for robbery, especially gay, effeminate, British, has-been pop stars.

Not being someone who has gone out of his way to be around homosexuals and learn about their fine 'culture', this term is a new one for me and I'm sure that it will also be for the millions of women who were 12 and 14 years old during the '80's and buying Culture Club records. When scandals hit a celebrity, even when it's a hideous, perverted, has-been celebrity, it still makes news even if it's been 'going on for ages' among people who aren't celebrities.
