How not to...

...introduce Rufus to new fans! This is the blurb on the site... err... ................................................................................ Rufus Wainwright Exquisite and eloquent, he's funny as hell, and he can be political. He even wrote a song about Arnold Schwarzenegger's home state - California. Although in his song, he says "life is the longest death in California." Ouch. His latest record is called 'Release the Stars.' He appeared in drag on the cover, and in his newest single, he sings the line "I'm so tired of you America." Rufus Wainwright is one of the most critically-acclaimed musicians in Canada. ................................................................................ In drag on the cover? He hadn't done any prep then... Art x

even so...

I agree the intro doesn't nearly describe Rufus, but still - I think it's the first intro I've ever read that doesn't actually mention the fact that he's gay! (Never mind the drag thing, everyone's in drag these days) It's not even mentioned in the interview, except by Rufus, talking about his boyfriend. Not that it should matter, it's just that usually the [insert type of media] are always mentioning that. That, and Loudon W III... Rufus is great in his own right - doesn't need all that! I liked the interview..
