Scooped by the Washington Post!
In yet another example of the man being wankier than his fans, the Names & Faces section of today's Washington Post reported the following tidbit:
...George Michael certainly is getting testy.
He decided to shut down the entire chat room on his Web site because, well, people weren't singing his praises or telling the 41-year-old former pop star what he wanted to hear. Rather, his fans boldly mentioned that the singer looked old and overweight. (Memo to fans: In the future, this would be a no-no.)
At that, Michael took his ball and went home. He posted a message on the site saying: "There are plenty of places to read people slagging each other off, but I wasn't trying to create one in opening the forum. Those of you that want to carry on the media's work will have to do it somewhere else, I suppose."
His little tirade ended with: Sorry guys, but that's the way it goes... Peace and Love... or nothing at all."
Can we say bitter?
Love and light, bitches.
My internet connection's acting up, so someone will have to confirm that the site I linked to above is actually the site in question.
Though there still remains that burning question: If it's a post reporting on offline paper media which in turn reported on the wanky actions of a former pop star on his website (oh, excuse me, Web site)... where does that post belong? Quick, someone create a new and relevant community for it!
