Contrary to popular belief, Daniel Johns does not use this finger for homosexual activity.

After gay rumors starting spreading about Silverchair‘s headman (who enjoys wearing a lacy garter as much as the next guy) Daniel Johns, he decided to use an Australian concert as the perfect medium for screaming a proclamation of his utter straightness. Quite aggressively. Three or four times.

Sheesh. Simmer down, Danny Boy.

Guess he might still be a bit defensive after his recent split with Nat Imbruglia. She is pretty hot.

(Clay Aiken, on the other hand, is settling into a more subtle rebuttal of his cuddling habits: asexuality … but not squelching many limp-wristed rumors with his new Broadway outfit. Spam.)
