Jake Shears considered suicide after touring
"He confessed: 'Getting off the road was the most miserable thing I've ever experienced in my life. I've never felt so low. I was ready to go walk over to the Hudson and float away. It was more than a comedown. It was like shooting a torpedo into the ground.'" [Yahoo]

The Sunday Times (the UK newspaper) published a top ten list of the gayest albums of all time, and they put Scissor Sisters' album at the top. I saw this at Morrissey Solo:

No class, none of you!
Perhaps if you toured and gave lots of people a lot of pleasure and it had to stop, YOU would feel depressed!
Jake and the guys give their all to their gigs, I know I've just been to all but three of their UK shows!
Jake, if you want to be depressed, be depressed, just go out get pissed and get Chris to put you to bed!!!
Your'e a star and the UK loves you!
Luv ya!!!!
