You’ve been making the case against animal cruelty for a long time – the latest musical manifestations being ‘The Bullfighter Dies’ and ‘I’m Not A Man’. What are your thoughts on the progress PETA and Greenpeace have made in pushing this agenda? modern construction; and new scenery has been painted by Mr W. T. Hemsley. Every part of the house is of Living it? No. Writing about it, yes. I wrote the childhood sequence almost as a child might, and the adolescent period as an adolescent might, and the adult section as a... suicidalist might. It’s really just a factual account of how events affected me, so therefore any criticism of it doesn’t make any sense, since I am me, and only I can know what it’s like to be me, and so on. It was never meant to be The History Of The World. When I was fourteen I went to the Empire every Monday night. I paid 6d in the gallery. That really put me on the road to showbusiness because I saw all the stars there. They really were stars in those days. I loved the whole atmosphere of it.’ Oh, like kings! No, sorry, that was a joke. My guitarist Jesse, who’s been with me for 10 years, is Mexican. One night in Los Angeles the police approached us, spoke reasonably civilly to me, and then said to him “which restaurant do you work at?” I think that sums it up! One of the greatest guitarists of the modern age, but because his skin is brown it’s assumed he washes dishes for a living. He will one day, of course...

The music and attitudes of the likes of Amy Winehouse, Diana Ross, Dorothy Squires, Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand, Jennifer Holiday, Bette Middler, Cher, Madonna, Tina Turner, Edith Piaf, Whitney Houston, amongst many others, have been a driving influence behind many a cabaret performer of past and present.Bill Clinton described the ‘War On Drugs’ as “the worst mistake in the last 50 years of American foreign policy” – and joined Richard Branson’s campaign for drugs to be decriminalised. What’s your take on the drugs war?

In between shows at the Windmill, Rex would frequent the Bear & Staff public house in Charing Cross Road, a famous haunt for theatricals and gay men. It was something of a discreet refuge at a time when homosexuality was both illegal and actively pursued by the police.

on the rebuilding of the Met in their 21st of August 1897 edition saying:- 'The nobility and gentry of Paddington are well cared Well, it’s not surprising considering the number of hospitals I’ve been rushed into in the last 18 months. It all seems to have hit me at once, which I expect is just the way it goes. Acute fever, a bleeding ulcer, food poisoning, Barrretts Oesophagus... it’s hardly believable. The worst was in June in Boston when I was hospitalised with acute fever. I was delirious for six hours... talking absolute nonsense and unable to stop. I’ve never been so frightened in my life. Then of course you get bitchy comments for having to cancel shows. The hospital actually gave me a heroin-based medication to calm me down. But, so what? I’ve been in so many hospitals lately that there’s hardly any point in me leaving.

Again, in modern terms, no one. The stars, now, are the costumes and the lights and the expense... and all those things that distract you from realising that you’re watching someone who can’t actually sing and has nothing to say. on Archer Street in front of the Windmill Theatre Stage Door.

Well, no, I don’t transmit sexuality of any kind, and I think there must be a strong sensuality to whatever an actor does. In the life that I live off-stage, I don’t ever attract women, men or white rhino, so I can’t see how I’d be attractive onscreen. World Peace Is None Of Your Business topped the charts on its day of release in Argentina, Chile and Peru. Apart from their good taste, have you figured out why your music has captured the imagination in Latin America?

The world of cabaret and the artists that inhabit it have been depicted in the mainstream film industry many times. The most well known of these, being ‘Cabaret’ which was released in 1972, starring Liza Minnelli – and loosely based on the 1966 Broadway show of the same name by Kander and Ebb. Minnelli and director Bob Fosse were both awarded Academy Awards the following year. Forty years on and if you wander along to a drag/cabaret show, the chances are you will still hear some of the songs that made Cabaret the enormous success it was. It’s often said that title song ‘Cabaret’ is the most sung song on the cabaret circuit (which is quite obvious when you think about it). I didn’t know it would be so stately and ceremonious. They were very courteous, but the local mayor fought to have me taken off the bill because he didn’t like my views on mass-murderers. There’s always something, I suppose.
