He shot to fame in the mid 80s as the lead singer of pop band Dead Or Alive, scoring a number one hit with ‘You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)’, before enjoying something of a renaissance in 2006 thanks to a show-stealing appearance on Celebrity Big Brother.
In later years we were fortunate to call him one of our own. A regular on the chatbox and forum, he'd delight us (not to mention the girls) with his trademark sexual ambiguity and gender fluidity.
Sometimes things got heated, sure; and he could certainly be highly strung, but we never held any grudges. We'd dust ourselves down and I guess just be grateful to have such a star among us.
Burns, we'll miss you mate.
Play it loud!
