Il y a trois jours, Darren Hayes (mon idole absolue) a laissé un message sur son site officiel, annonçant son mariage avec son ami depuis deux ans, Richard Cullen. J'ai trouvé ça génial qu'il partage cette fabuleuse nouvelle avec ses fans. En tous cas je leur souhaite à tous les deux beaucoup beaucoup de bonheur. S'il y a quelqu'un qui mérite d'être heureux, c'est bien Darren. Bien évidemment je ne connais pas tout de lui, mais pour avoir suivi sa carrière de très près depuis une dizaine d'années, je peux affirmer que les gens comme lui sont rares et très précieux. Il suffit d'observer un peu Darren pour voir à quel point c'est quelqu'un de gentil, de sincère et surtout d'intègre. Je pense que ce n'est pas si courant dans le milieu du showbiz... Encore une fois : félicitations à Darren et Richard ! D'ailleurs si je peux me permettre Darren a plutôt bon goût !
Je poste ici le message que Darren a laissé sur son site off, accompagné d'une photo de Richard et lui prise à Sydney lors de ses récents concerts là-bas :
Monday, 17 July 2006
I very rarely make comments about my private life.
But today, as I'm about to begin 6 months in the studio to record what I hope to be the best record of my career, I feel an overwhelming gratitude for the past 10 years of being a performer.
Most recently, I've been moving toward a career that is more closely aligned with 'art' than it is 'commerce'. And in keeping on this trajectory - I have become increasingly more emotionally authentic in my music, writing and my relationship to my audience. As so many
of you have given me your heart and soul over the past 10 years I thought it only fitting that I too return the respect and inform you of the most significant event in my life.
On June 19th 2006 I married my boyfriend of two years, Richard, in a Civil Partnership ceremony in London.
I can honestly say it was the happiest day of my life.
I feel lucky to live in an era where my relationship can be considered legally legitimate and I commend the UK Government for embracing this very basic Civil Liberty.
I'm proud of who I am, and after what felt like an eternity, I'm finally in a place where my heart is secure and content. And I can finally make sense of all of the searching.
I still maintain the belief that families and relationships are not commodities to be sold off for public consumption. In this regard, I am and will continue to be a public person with a private life.
I have always written songs about human relationships and our journey in life. I've never felt the need to differentiate or speak to a specific part of society. This hasn't changed. I will continue to write songs for everybody and hope that the feelings and thoughts I sing about are universal. Today, as I get on a plane to return to London, my head will be filled with all the future possibilities that I hope to explore musically.
To the people who buy my records, come to my shows and demonstrate on a daily basis their love and support for me and what I do : thank you.
Your overwhelming message to me lately seems to be that you are just glad that I am happy. For this, I am eternally grateful.
To my Mum, Dad, Sister and Brother - thanks for always being so cool and loving me unconditionally.
With love and respect always.
Darren Hayes
