GAYLES.TV.- It is not our intention to question the artistic gifts of Tom Jones, we must recognize an impressive voice and a list of successes that come to corroborate that it was never a product of marketing, but someone who deserved to reach the summit for his musical talent.
That said, what no longer makes us so much grace of the "tiger of Wales" is its insufferable machismo, coulería, conceit and in case it lacked some virtue, to the list has been added the homophobia.
In recent statements to the magazine The Big Issue, acknowledged that upon joining the world of music, he became "paranoid with homosexuals." Invited to clarify what he had meant by that, the singer elaborated: “I was warned about most aspects of the music industry, but when I met producer Joe Meek, I fell apart, because he was homosexual. I thought: Are there so many homosexuals among the people who run British show business? Because if that's the case, I'm going back to Cardiff. ' He then added that when Peter Sullivan became his manager, he asked him directly: "Aren't you one of those queers?" I got paranoid you know But then I realized that it just so happened that the first guy I recorded for was a gay producer. Once I got over the shock, I realized that most of the people were normal. Well I don't want to get like this homosexuals are normal, it's just that they are what they are«.
Tom Jones has been surprised by the uproar caused in social networks by his statements and has defended himself with a Twitter in which, to make matters worse, he tries to give us lessons, «Context !, the story is about knowledge / attitudes in the 50 and 60. This is called history.
Most probably this umpteenth barbarity of the alpha male Tom Jones has much of an advertising maneuver if we consider that he was recently fired as coache Contest "The voice" where he had collaborated for four seasons to be replaced by Boy George, someone who has always displayed an androgynous aesthetic. It seems that the thing has not made the tiger very funny.
In his best days Tom Jones came to boast of sleeping with an average of 250 fans a year, signing them at his concerts and members of his team, when not his own son, accompanied them to the dressing room. Too bad that some did not see clear that the singer confused the signing of an autograph to take her to the orchard and filed for rape with medical report of included vaginal tears. Now in his biography that, casually, is promoting, the "sexual bomb" softens saying "the road offers temptations that you can hardly get away." Fuck you, sorry!
Yes, the tiger allows himself the luxury of giving us history and normality classes. And I say, what will the poor cats have done to carry this cross in their family?
