From Mike Rice:

Yesterday's Guardian had an interview with Vicki Wickham, who has been a PA of such luminaries as Marc Almond, Holly Johnson, Dusty Springfield... and of course Morrissey. Moz only gets a brief mention, but those interested can see the article here:

Ready, Vicki, Go

excerpt:

"The difficult ones just find me," she says, referring to her role as manager of Almond, and formerly Morrissey and Holly Johnson. All the queens, then? "Gay men just have an affinity for me. I'm at an age where they feel safe, and they see me as a mother, though it's horrifying to think I could be someone's mother. Morrissey is enamoured of the 60s, so he liked the ethic of a strong woman manager. Marc just liked the fact I've been doing it for a while."

Comments / Notes

Goodness me. That's pretty unambiguous. Methinks Morrissey has just been outed.

moz indirectly admitted that he was in love w/ johnny marr: "you think you were my first love, but you're wrong, you were the only one who's come and gone." in a later interview he said his first love was the Smiths, but we all know it wasn't Mike & Andy.

yup

bi, straight, asexual, homo:

whoever thought someone could be all of these, yet none of these at the same time?

I declare today as "everything is getting old" day. Everyone who wants to celebrate just go about doing the same old same old.

When she says Morrissey liked a strong woman,
does that mean he liked her to be on top???

I doubt Moz wants to be grouped with the likes of Marc Almond and Holly Johnson!
Everyone knows he's a poof - why the continued debate?!
