Here's a wee interview the band did for promotion of the next single!!
SCISSOR SISTERS admit their increasingly provocative use of sexual imagery may have cost them a few fans.
The flamboyant New Yorkers’ new single Any Which Way boasts some steamy, X-rated lines including: “Take me in front of your parents.”
And current album Night Work even features a pair of clenched buttocks on its cover.
Unapologetic frontman Jake Shears, 31, told me: “I feel happier than ever with what we’re doing.
“We’re all really relaxed about it. There’s no other band who could get away with this stuff.
“Our new music was born out of going to these insane sex parties.
“The album cover is provocative and we may not sell quite as many records because of it.
“It wouldn’t be the same if it was a woman’s behind.
“I guess some people love us for who we are, some vehemently despise us.”
Although the more prudish may not approve, the band themselves had a blast recording the new single, which they famously performed live with Kylie Minogue, 42, at Glastonbury.
Ana Matronic, 36, purrs a deadpan rap about her deepest sexual desires towards the end of the track.
Jake revealed: “Ana’s solo in that song was hilarious.
“If you get all the things right in a room for her you can stick a microphone in front of her and she’ll come out with the most outrageous, amazing lines in one go.
“That was all one take, and totally improvised. I was having to try and keep my hysterics in check.” The record was written with Madonna stalwart Stuart Price, 32, who made a big impression.
Jake added: “Stuart has become one of my most favourite people in the universe.
“He’s somebody who I would choose to spend as much time as possible with.”
And Price’s old dance project Les Rythmes Digitales could be making a comeback too.
Jake revealed: “He keeps saying he’s going to make another Les Rythmes Digitales record. I’ve wanted one for a long time. I think he may actually be making one now.”
Any Which Way is out on September 20.
