George Michael has told the world that as soon as gay marriages become legal in Britain, he’s going to march his long-term partner Kenny Goss up the aisle.
Wait a minute – George Michael is gay?!
Next month, gay civil partnerships become legal in the UK. Elton John is already pacing around his living getting stroppy about the wedding reception seating plan, and he’ll soon be joined by George Michael (CDs), who has announced his intention to wed his partner of nine years, Kenny Goss.
But don’t expect any giant puffy dresses, adorable flower girls riding Shetland ponies or hired crowds of rent-a-celebs to beef up the Hello! photo deal for George and Kenny, they’re planning on a wedding that’s a little more private. George Michael said:
"I’m sure Kenny and I will be doing the old
legal thing, but we won’t be doing the whole veil and gown thing. It’ll
be relatively soon after it comes in, probably early next year."
Speaking at the premiere of a documentary about his life and boring solo career, George added:
"I’m not very romantic about it to be honest, I think Kenny probably
would be if I let him, but it’s just not me. We want to do
it, just in case – you never know, I could get hit by a bus and the
poor man could have nothing."
It’s enough to bring tears to your eyes, isn’t it. We’d have loved to have been there when George proposed, "Listen Kenny, I’m planning on throwing myself under a bus because I can’t remember the last time I wrote a good song. Fancy tying the knot?"
At the screening of George Michael: A Different Story, George also revealed that he’s cleared the air with Elton John, and will also be attending his wedding. Earlier in the year Elton said in an interview that George Michael’s last album was a pile of fat wank (OK, we’re paraphrasing) and that George should get out more. George responded by writing an open letter to Heat magazine saying that Elton was talking out of his giant wiggy arse (paraphrasing again).
But now everyone is all happy and friends again. George said:
"I wished I hadn’t written him that public letter either, but I was incredibly hurt. I think he was having a bad day and he said some stuff he shouldn’t
have. We still haven’t really talked abut it but we are friends again.
We had dinner with some friends. There was a lot of bitching going on
round that table that night. But we are friends again now and I’m
looking forward to his wedding."

Not a comment about the possible civil partnership between a pop star and his other half, rather a comment on the content of the article by Stuart Heritage.
It may have made better reading if it had been funny mate. But it is not. It’s embarrassingly juvenile and snidey. Like some spoilt little girl’s attack on her greatest rival. I came accross the article by chance. Chances are I won’t be returning to this site in the hope of being amazed and entertained by the quality stuff on offer.
Very poor.

like it matters if he is gay,look at him! he is finer than any straight men i have ever seen. People should relax and worry about their own sexuality, everyone else’s is no comcern of yours!

It’s so sad… not the fact of Gmgetting married, but that people still have nothing positive to say these days… Let them get married… you will not surely be invited to the cerimony, so don’t worry about your dresses or the gifts… I JUST WISH THAT SOMEONE COUL / WOULD HELP GM, CAUSE IF HE GOES ON LIKE THIS SOME DAY WE WILL HAVE A SAD NEWS… at least, for me it will be sad.

Should have his licence revoked; if this man is not happy with dispensing legal drugs because of his beliefs perhaps he should try other employment, or does his income come before his beliefs? WBR LeoP
