BRAVE STEPHEN IN A GAYZONE
(click to enlarge)
BRAVE Boyzone star Stephen Gately completed his sensational "coming
out" with a hero's reception at a gay nightclub. But the singer appears to have
become the gay equivalent of Tom Jones as fans bombarded him with
flowers, gifts. . . and even pants. Boyzone performed their live set at
the Saturday club night n London's Astoria. The group agreed to appear at the
G.A.Y night as a show of support for Stephen. A concert organiser gushed: "He was
very brave in coming out. He and Boyzone were really looking forward
to the performance. The band wanted to show their support and so did the
audience. It was a big celebration." G.A.Y has proved a favourite venue
for pop acts, with Geri Halliwell launching her solo act there and disco
diva Donna Summer using it to relaunch her career.
