From the Times... pretty sad really...
"The 40-year-old was found hanged at his flat in Green Street, Mayfair, shortly after 10am today. Paramedics were called but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Speculation mounted tonight that McQueen had been unable to come to terms with the death of his mother, who died on February 2 and whose funeral is to be held in East London tomorrow."

Not really by the way. There are so many reasons as to why I'm not homophobic though, but why the fuck do I care about trying to persuade you...
I will say one thing about mcqueen. I knew him pretty well, I stayed in his studio in NYC in 2001 as a security guard. My ex was his assistant for 3 years, and in recent times I worked on some ppr stuff with him. Lovely lovely guy. But he did have HIV and he knowingly had unprotected sex with a mate from the ma fashion course at st martins. He wasn't the only one, so in some ways I see it as karma.
Kurram grow up

what makes you believe they are selfish though? From where I'm sitting, suicide is complex and to suggest it's selfish misrepresents that complexity.
but I suppose we all make sense of it in our own way.

I'm still so shocked and saddened by this. Many US colleagues of mine don't know who he is but Alexander McQueen will be remembered for a long long time. A truly original, visionary talent. RIP.
