Misadventures in Male Plastic Surgery

Washed up pop star and avowed homosexual Pete Burns ain't down with gay marriage: "I think two men naturally are predators. Gay relationships are a commercial break, not a whole movie. …It's as though there's some kind of emotional inadequacy or narcissism, where they feel emotionally inadequate and need more validation, from either a father figure or a mirror image of themselves. I'm not condemning it, I think it needs researching and help." Um, look in the mirror, babe. [Joe.My.God] |
