Sebastian Horsley: You are not entering the us in that hat, sir

1962-2010


"I was going to America to do a very American thing, promote my book"

British artist, writer and self-styled dandy was turned away by US immigration recently after arriving in New York to promote his book. He once crucified himself for his art, had it filmed by Sarah Lucas to a soundtrack by Gavin Rosedale and then he promptly fell off the cross and ripped his hands along the way. He swam with great white sharks, he's been a gangster¹s toyboy and wasted £100,000 on prostitutes of every description. Now he has written a memoir about his drugging and whoring and clashed with US homeland security for being a dangerous undesirable.

@HeathenLoveGod Don’t be ridiculous! We’re all composites of other people’s ideas...it begins the minute we open our eyes.

Unfortunately Sebastian's entire persona was based upon other (and greater) minds. He ripped off other people's quotes without attribution, claiming them as his own. What a talentless bimbo he truly was!

At times I think he's a complete twat, and others I think he's the greatest man on the planet. I always think he's a genius, though, and very, very witty.
