Young Becomes Editor

Singer WILL YOUNG has added editor to his resume after taking charge of a leading British gay magazine.

The Leave Right Now hitmaker is the guest editor of November’s (09) issue of Attitude and interviews a series of stars including Victoria Beckham, Michael Sheen and Matt Lucas.

Young, who is gay, was delighted to take responsibility for the publication - because he’s been reading the magazine since he was a teenager.

He says, “The first time I bought Attitude I was 15 and Chris O’Donnell was dressed as Robin on the front cover. I didn’t know it was a gay magazine at the time.

“It is never easy adjusting to being different but things have changed so quickly over the last 10 years and I dedicate this issue to the people who were at the forefront of that change by being brave enough to be themselves.”
