Q Awards Lead to Q-uestions

1) 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.

(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".
