Holly Johnson 'cancelled' after HIV positive status revealed

He was talking forward of the opening of The Holly Johnson Story, an exhibition on the Museum of Liverpool exploring his life and rise to fame as one the earliest brazenly homosexual and brazenly HIV+ high-profile artists. 聽

“The homosexual factor was a bit isolating within the music trade,” he stated.

“There have been a variety of different homosexual singers they usually’d all been suggested to remain within the closet.

“It was thought-about harmful and it did have an effect on the band’s profile in center America.

“It was nice in New York and LA and San Francisco, so we have been on the forefront of that and it wasn’t simple.

“The whole lot that was written about us was ‘homosexual this and homosexual that’, I believe that is why the Pet Store Boys stayed within the closet throughout the 80s.

“Individuals had the attention on advertising and marketing and cash.”
