Rufus: Gordon Brown is sexy

Rufus Wainwright has said he finds Prime Minister Gordon Brown sexy after a brief meeting at a TV studio, and invited him to one of his performances.

In one of the stranger musical crush stories perhaps ever reported, Rufus Wainwright had declared his love for British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The gay singer admitted that he was won over by the PM's dour Scottish charms after meeting at a TV studio recently, commenting: "I think Gordon is really sexy. Most women I know feel the same. I met him briefly a few weeks ago when I did a Sunday morning show. He was very sweet. We talked for about two seconds and I invited him to watch one of my performances". Downing Street didn't respond when we called for comment. Actually, we didn't call. We doubt they care what Rufus thinks, and we're not sure we care what they think.
