I really think George is on a train track to disaster.

He should clean up his drug habit or wind up dead.

He's a fantastic singer

That's true, but how often do you hear people outside of the gay community brag about trolling in parks and bathhouses for sex, or treat drugs as a matter of course to their sexuality?

gross



I can only imagine what all that smoke is doing to his skin, breath, teeth and completion.


Oh, and the cruising for sex thing is kind of gross too. He's filthy rich. Why not just put an add in the Internet and have guys come by?

meow85 said:

Besides the bathhouses it is practically the same scene.

I work with both gay and straight teens and young adults...
and all I'm saying that this is not just a gay issue.
I cant even type half the stuff I've witnessed it is so horrific.

People in general can be quite self-destructive.

Wth is it? And how come I can never figure them out?

and

When are you coming back around to Florida?

slimhustle said:

Hopefully in the next 6 months (just before June).
We should totally hangout if I get to go.

Imago said:

OMG, stoppp! I am going to have nightmares!

...and we should. Seriously.

If I remember correctly, you like kayaks. I have kayaks!
and a poodle! and a mullet!

pathetic


what is he, around 50 years old and still doing the same shit he did for the last 20 years? He's lucky he's still alive with all the drugs and sex he's had. I really hope he wakes up soon and changes for good, or else he'll die from an overdose or a disease


he really ruined his legacy...he was so popular and huge 20 years ago but he let his out-of-control lifestyle ruin it all.


such a waste. and don't the rest of you start saying "oh he's happy". BS. he's heavily addicted to drugs and sex. That's not joy-it's a prison.

Remember, George?

slimhustle said:

Exactly.
This in particular is gay-associated because these are things that are taking place/facilitated by certain enviroments (men's room/bathhouse). All groups have their "things". We could sit here and make lists from crime and drug abuse to teen pregnancy. Sometimes it's an excuse, sometimes there's legitimate roots to the issue.

johnart said:

For me I don't even see his demons, as it were, as gay associated at all. I think because I too am from the camp that believes all groups have their gunk...but ...at what age, male or female, gay straight or bi, do you stop bed-hopping, smoking 10 bowls a day, getting caught by the po-po for dumb shit...I mean, there's gotta be more to life, or so I thought....but still it's his decision to make, and I understand that .

johnart said:

Yeah.....

but that bitch should be busy making another album!

Ottensen said:

There certainly is more to life.
It's not always easy to see this when you're high from drug or random sex.

meow85 said:

I have. One of my best friends is a former fashion editorial model (Conde Nast level) who as a hetero, is the biggest pill popper this side of Neilly O'Hara from "Valley of the Dolls", and sex is always part of the experience afterwards.

I also recall the writer Erica Jong being very candid about her drug exploits through the characters in her infamous pop culture phenomenon books of the 70's and 80's- as an extension of her/her character's sexuality. The only hetero celeb that immediately comes to mind for the sex trolling thing though,is Roseanne. About 10-15 years ago she did reveal she went through a tough time where she would troll for men at truckstops...it was part of her revealing her issues with childhood (abuse) trauma which leads me to believe that there could be more heterosexual idenitified people out there, who might experience difficulties with the same thing...

bboy87 said:

I absolutely agree.
I would stock the studio bathrooms with trade so that I could take care of my shit in between sessions. LET'S TAKE FIVE EVERYONE!

johnart said:

I'll be the one in the studio sayin' "George needs a dick break!" and put a time limit on each fuck if that's what it takes for him to record another album

"No George, you can't have seconds! The poor guy's already exhausted!"

Quiet as its kept, you are preaching to the choir...I think I went through my Ab Fab periods for several years of each decade of my life ... but it's daunting to think at age 50 one can still fall prey to all the old vices that push them to the edge and not be able to move on ...I have this big naive fantasy that age 50 is when we all hit our stride and life is supposed to be perfectamundo, with a house, some hounds, a companion, endless money in the bank and spiritual evolution that would rival the planet's greatest phrophets...I know it's about false and projected expectations on my side, but I do look at scenarios like this and say "Why, Georgie? Whyyyyy??? "


I mean while I remember the heady days of my youth with great fondness...I do wonder what pushes a person to need to have titilation at this level after the age when you would think we've experienced everything





dunno...but it's interesting to witness and I hope he can sort himself out...

Ottensen said:

You're 50 now?!

whistle said:

Absolutely.

I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with liking sex and marijuana, and getting it whenever you want.

Imago said:

How is that any less gross? It's the same thing, just a different venue.


As for his looks, I will say the drugs have clearly taken their toll. I saw his last tour as a friend got free tickets and while I had a good time we both were pretty shocked when they showed him on the jumbo screen at just how OLD he's gotten. And way out of shape. He had a hard time breathing when dancing to catch his breath to sing. Luckily he had a very talented group of back-up singers. Still a good show overall, but wow.

giRRRLLL , it's one of the reasons why you should always book a nice boutique hotel over a motel 6. It doesn't matter if the motel 6 has Internet, Cable T.V. and a computer desk--it matters who the hell slept in the bed the night before you did.

It's about ambiance, guRRRLL!!!

Imago said:

But what if the thought of a sweaty insurance salesman fucking a toothless unwashed prostitute in the bed last night turns you on? Elitist.

^^^ Oh, and I'd still like to see him live sometime. I would just prefer he be in better health. You don't want to depress your audience with wheezing and panting. Swear to gawd, that's one of the reasons I never wanted to see the lead singer of the pogues. It would be like Weekend at Bernies with a British twist.

Imago said:

If you're equating meeting people to date on the internet to a hip boutique hotel, you've never tried internet dating.
