Q Awards Lead to Q-uestions

2003_10_duranduran.jpg

2003_10_robertsmith.jpg1) When did Duran Duran (above) become the lead contenders for the British version of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy? Queer Eye for the Straight Bloke?

2) What the hell happened to Robert Smith? It looks like Tim Burton on a bender with lipstick, or a bloated Chris Kattan doing the Goth kid skit.

The Q Awards.

Wow, Edward Scissorhands really let himself go.

jesus. someone should buy that man a mirror.

Poor Robert . . . well, he isn't that poor considering the millions that he made by wearing makeup and being depressed.

Wait... Duran Duran are gay?

oh robert smith's been bloated since the early 90's. he says it's the drinking. boys don't cry. so they retain water.

Kinda has an old-time Rosie O'Donnell look. Someone take up a fund to help him.

he looks like robert smith dressing up to look like robert smith.
(four hours before awards: robert sitting around in an adidas jumpsuit, with hair in a ponytail, eating some burger king... picking up an old copy of Q magazine from 15 years ago, to make sure he remembers the "i'm depressed and dark" look. "shit, no lipstick, this ketchup should work".
