I'm playing in a tennis match in 3 hours. It's a hot sunny day so I'm going to go to Boots now and buy some sun cream - I don't want to burn now do I!
Morrissey was on Jonathan Ross's show last night, doing his first TV interview for 17 years. I love the Smiths and his solo albums ('Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want' is my favourite) and I was looking forward to seeing the man behind the voice. But boy oh boy, what a prat. He's 40 odd and looks pretty much the same as ever, so he's not really changed. And he's still very opinionated, which isn't a surprise (although you'll know that's not my favourite trait in people). It's just that, well, he's one of those people who sings nicely and writes nice songs but doesn't communicate well in any other way. He was grumpy, arrogant, rude, awkward and, sorry to say it, boring. Which is fine: he's a singer so he shouldn't have to be any good at anything else. But he came across as a charmless man with a real thorn in his side.
