Having a great comic actress like Kim is so exciting. I'm a huge fan of hers.
The thought behind it was fantastic but Hyde Park is a charisma-free zone.
I've always been a fan, so my enthusiasm has always been great, but it's never going to be the same as it was from 1970 to 1975. You cannot repeat that, but you can get inspired by searching, by being mystified.
I'm the ultimate record fan. I still go out and buy records.
It was Elvis that got me interested in music. I've been an Elvis fan since I was a kid.
I went up to Prince and said 'I'm a big fan of your stuff' and he looked at me and just walked off...left me standing there like a ****. He's a prat, but a clever prat.

Throughout history, gay people such as myself and David have often been made scapegoats by those who fear that we are a threat to the status quo.
