Remember this fabulously androgynous creature from our high school years?
ADAM ANT, the punk rocker turned pop star of the early '80s. Oh Adam, you were so funny, sexy and charming. Flirting with the camera in your videos and oh, those icy blue eyes.
He is not exempt from the hands of time and we are all aging now. Not sure who remembers his assault charges in 2002 (above) or his epic meltdown in 2003.
Adam, now 58, has had a tough go of it for sure, and it shows. Having gone through marriage, divorce, marriage, child, divorce again. He has suffered from multiple stints in psychiatric treatment, been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and is once again giving the public eye one more go.
Adam is resurfacing again and recently did an interview and private performance for The Guardian. I am not going to bother trying to rewrite this article for you. It's a long retrospective of his career and life, ups and downs. Read the article and check him out below, speaking of his 1981 hit Stand & Deliver.
