Former Westlife boy-band singer Brian McFadden says straight men should not wear pink.
McFadden, whose former Westlife colleague Mark Feehily came out last year, said, “If you are not gay, a man should not be wearing pink," adding, "Saying pink is a form of red is the same as saying homosexual is a form of male."
Responding to a caller to New Zealand's More FM, who said that in days gone by boys used to wear pink while little girls were dressed in blue, McFadden, 28, sneered: "In San Francisco or Sydney."
Poor Delta. Your legion of gay male fans can sympathise. We all understand the attractions of a bit of homophobic rough trade. Don’t worry. You’ll get over it.
McFadden is probably trying to boost his moribund career with a new gig as a shock-jock. He’s already lined up to prat on about football, hosting Foxtel's new reality TV soccer show Football Superstar.
And John Laws old job is still vacant. He could go head to head with one of the stately homos of Australia, and fellow sports nut, Alan Jones. And make country music albums to sell to the listeners.
Someone should remind him that calling himself an artist is the same as saying that mooing over a celebrity girlfriend for profit is a form of music.
Meantime can someone get him a date with Jeff Kennett?
