Please let him get what he wants


"Morrissey’s latest extremely-Morrisey-stunt? Saying he wants nothing to do with The Smiths, financially or otherwise. 

In a post on his website he says: "I am burnt out by any and all connections to Marr, Rourke, Joyce. I have had enough of malicious associations. With my entire life I have paid my rightful dues to these songs and these images. I would now like to live disassociated from those who wish me nothing but ill-will and destruction, and this is the only resolution.”

Fair enough, very low-key, very Morrissey. In fairness, his penchant for being an absolute nightmare is well documented. On a tour of Los Angeles, Moz - who doesn’t allow meat to be anywhere near his presence, and asks his crew to be vegetarian - demanded to be chauffeured around in a Mercedes S500 ONLY. 

When reluctantly informed by terrified fixers that his car had leather seats, Moz’s staff said “yes we know, it is not a problem.”

But avoiding red meat doesn't mean Moz isn’t red blooded in other aspects. He once got off with a publicist and, being a little, "backward" in this situation - he took off his spectacles and poked around the young lady’s "naughty bits" with the end of the arm of his glasses like he was prodding something in a petri-dish.” Popbitch
