  • Personally,I don't think it's shocking. I love her books and the fact that she loves Morrissey is a bonus. Maybe he'll be in book 6 or 7? Just a thought. =)

  • I wonder if she has based any of the characters on the Moz. Personally, I feel that Moz has a lot in common with Lucius Malfoy.

  • isn't it obvious? harry potter will become a gloomy teenager stuck at the boarding school with no one who understands him. his only refuge will be a certain english band from the 80s. he writes a bunch of letters to moz but his great idol never answers. later he will realize that he is gay. he'll be the last of the famous homosexual wizards.

  • Typical of this tabloid fodder newspaper to label Moz as miserable and it's stupid readers believe such nonsense. The same readership are probably the same ones who propelled a badly receeding, squinting, egomaniac to the status of national hero in I'm A Celebrity. You can look out of your window now in the UK and you will see these people on any Sunday, the dickhead boyfriend wearing a striped polo shirt with his fat arse packed into a tracksuit playing Robbie Williams in his Rover and the thick girlfriend with the D&G handbag and a Burberry cap with hair in a ponytail sticking out of the back. Up yours my (fellow?) Brits, I love you Morrissey! ps: Screw JK Rowling too, her books suck a fat one!

  • Frankly JK Rowling I think you're jumping on the Moz bandwagon. Will Self I fully embrace. Rowling hmmmm?? I didn't quite believe she was a big fan. They should've interviewed Harry Hill instead. He did Moz on Celebrity stars in their eyes afterall. If she's so rich why didn't she make a label and sign morrissey? I know I would have done!!
