That'll help with the legal fees, then...

Nice day's work for George Michael, who's pocketed one and a half million quid from Vladimir Potanin, one of the many billionaires who have close links to the Kremlin.

It's interesting that George would be so happy to bank an enormous cheque from one of the people who helped Vladimir Putin to power and yet somehow forgot to raise the terrible state of lesbian and gay rights in Russia at the moment. But then George has always shown an ability to remain flexible when balancing his financial and sexual identities.

As has Elton John when asked to sing with Eminem (ok, the latter might not be a homophobe but, despite being happy to build an act portraying ridiculous characters, I'm pretty sure he wasn't top of the list of invitees to Matt Lucas' wedding.

Does this mean Moscow is the new Sun City for gay singers?
