this article about Leigh Bowery is delightful. However, it is obvious that it was written by one of his friends. That is such a shame, he revultionised my idea of what is art when i was a teenager. He deserves a better article than this, but I don' feel that i can really edit it. 86.129.64.185 06:10, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

It'd be great if someone could add some (or any) information about Leigh.gif, since the submitter completely neglected to. Burpen 04:23, 19 July 2007 (UTC) yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy¥¥¥¥¥¥ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.21.227.13 (talk) 14:41, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

Does the article really mean genital gerkins? Not merkins? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.136.124.67 (talk) 23:50, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Whoever wrote this knows little to nothing about Leigh Bowery and are really just trying to romanticise him as opposed to writing a good artical. It's evident in the first paragraph which says something to the extent of "he read and dreamed about the New Romantic movement in London". Leigh Bowery moved to London in the late 70's/early 80's when New Romantic was actually going on, well in the 70's it hadn't even started. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.63.205.226 (talk) 05:20, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

This is a horrible, horrible article. I mean really, he wasn't a New Romantic? Funny that he calls himself a New Romantic in the documentary The Legend of Leigh Bowery that the author of this disaster has plagarized more than once. Also how did Leigh Bowery inspire Vivienne Westwood when she was designing Avant-Garde fashion nearly a decade before Bowery moved to London? Also, what about some of the more negative aspects of Leigh Bowery's life; like the fact he continued engaging in unprotected sex even after learning he was HIV+? I believe Leigh Bowery deserves a Wikipedia entry 100%, but something that is encyclopedic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.63.203.208 (talk) 04:27, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
