Marcus Akin.

Well because of how hilarious he was during Big Brother, and he showed me not to do what Im told and to be myself and more importantly, taught me a few good insults.

So yes, Marcus Akin.

For me there's;

Stephen Fry - An incredibly funny, astute and cultured man, has probably influenced my sense of humour. He's also extremely rational and his approach and musings on some often serious matters always impress me. And as a gay man he's been outspoken in deeply homophobic areas such as Eastern Europe [there was some controversy re: Poland last year, a deeply homophobic country - the leader has compared gays to dogs.] There isn't really anyone I could consider more of a role model.

Ricky Gervais - best comedy writer of the 2000s, and one of the most genuinely funny and clever personalities around.

David Bowie - revolutionised the music industry, fantastically talented and, as a bisexual, probably inadvertently opened minds.

Morrissey - Wrote lyrics that helped me see a totally different perspective of things. Also watching his interviews, relates to me very much.

I do like Stephen Fry for raising awareness of Bipolar.

Rihanna - because she's a very strong person, we all know what she's been through, also she's natural and funny.

Jedward - because no matter what people say, they still love everyone, and dont take in the negative comments. also they dont drink or smoke so thats good. they send a message across like: just be yourself, and live your dream

Jared Leto - people call him a douchebag, an arrogant twat, bigheaded etc. when he genuinely isn't. i've met him and as a hardcore 30stm fan can say he is prepared to turn up late to interviews if his fans want to talk to him. he writes fantastic music, has an amazing voice and is a great actor too. he's hilarious, gorgeous and sweet to boot. he really cares about his fans and that is so obvious in how interactive 'this is war' was - he got his fans to sing on the album and even put their faces on the cover on the album. you can't say that of many artists. he is just an amazing man and anyone who thinks he's a dickhead can think again.

Madonna - The Queen Of Pop has taught me so much about life and has helped me so much. She is multi talented and has a great personality to match. She has preformed in neally every style of music and has done so many records its untrue. She has told me to express myself, she has taught me to get into the groove and she has told me to dance and sing get up and do your thing. Long Live the Queen!
