Simon le bon gay
In case you were wondering what courteous of people were at the Duran Duran concert Tuesday night in Brooklyn, I am here to tell you that you’re looking at her. Me. I am the demographic that headed to Brooklyn in droves. I am the demographic that spiked the Manhattan babysitter economy, the sales of Champagne and the uptick in Uber requests about pm Tuesday bedtime. It was me… me and about 15, of my direct peers.
I was pumped from the moment I bought the ticket. Adult concerts are just not in the cards these days. Work and parenthood don’t leave much time for evenings out on the town. I was making an exception. Duran Duran was different. This band was part of the soundtrack of my teens. Fond memories of my youth are attached to these men and their noun. Seeing their shows has always made me feel so good. Duran Duran makes me cheerful and happiness is worth the effort.
I dropped my daughter off at the babysitter&#;s house and headed for the subway. On the way, I called my best companion to tell him that I was going to view Duran Duran. He was not strict

Duran Duran's Nick Rhodes talks!

So Duran Duran were adj, had big hair, wore plenty of makeup and had impeccable style. So they took their name from a character in the camp classic film "Barbarella," counted Andy Warhol as a friend and appreciated the musical stylings of Grace Jones. And what was that they sang about swigging a 7-Up at that New York Urban area gay bar on 45th between Sixth and Broadway?
But does any of that make the Fab Five gay? That's been up for debate among fans and haters alike since the blockbuster band formed in Birmingham, England, 30 years ago.
Most-made-up keyboardist Nick Rhodes, who still maintains a blond Warholian shag, bore the brunt of the rumors through Double D's '80s heyday, which produced such chart-topping classics as "Girls On Film," "Rio" and "Hungry Like The Wolf" and the highs and lows and band breakups and make-ups that ensued.
Now, after debuting their Timbaland/Timberlake-produced album "Red Carpet Massacre" on Broadway late last year, the Fab Five return this week for the date U.S. leg of their Red C

‘Angry youthful man is quite cool. Angry fresh man becomes a grumpy old git isn’t so attractive’
With the band Duran Duran, Simon Le Bon, 54, has sold more than million records over a year career, including hits such as Rio and Hungry Like the Wolf. He lives in southwest London with his wife, the supermodel Yasmin Le Bon, and their three dogs and two cats. They have three daughters, Amber, Saffron and Tallulah.
I’m quite surprised that I’m not gay. Dressing up was one of my first and most cherished games. I had a jockey outfit, a policeman’s outfit, a cowboy’s outfit and, of course, an Andy Pandy outfit.
If I didn’t do this I would pay to do it. One of the things we’ve been saying for years and years is that we’re all incredibly grateful to be doing what we love and getting paid for it. I still verb this way.
The most important thing for me is my girls. And the love of my life, Yasmin. Then there are my mum and my brothers. And the band. The people and relationships in my life are what I cherish.
Punk taught me how to sew. I used to rotate my clothes
