Sinead O'Connor is looking for a man. BOY is she ever looking for a man. I guess the nice thing about being famous is you don't have to troll all those dating websites and list your movie and music preferences while trying to be witty and attractive. You just have to write a blog about your desperation and it spreads all over the web media (case in point: I actually found this on the Hollywood Reporter).
In a post on her blog, titled "IS SINEAD ABOUT TO HUMP HER TRUCK?" Sinead writes,
"My sh**-uation sexually/affectionately speaking is so dire that inanimate objects are starting to look good as are inappropriate and/or unavailable men and/or inappropriate and/or unavailable fruits and vegetables. I tell you yams are looking like the winners. I actually do know a woman who is a performance artist from America. I have a photo of her being escorted arm in arm by two uk police man onto a plane back home cuz she humped a yam in the middle of her show. I just know that's going to happen to me if I don't take drastic action. [Note: I bet she's talking about Karen Finley]
She goes on, "Needless to say what I do for a living makes it hard for me to find men that only want me cuz they like my (legendary) arse. Yet I am in the peak of my sexual prime and way too lovely to be living like a nun. and it's VERY depressing."
Sinead says that she is "in desperate need of a very sweet sex-starved man," and goes on to list criteria required for said man. It is not enough to be sweet and sex starved. He must also be no younger than 44, reside in Ireland, must not be named Brian or Nigel, must be "blind enough to think I'm beautiful," employed, not be waxed, not wear hair gel (agreed Sinead! Fist bump!), must like his mother.
THR says she also referenced some specific sexual acts that must be on the menu but that part is no longer there, so I assume she removed it.
Sinead might, I suspect, be a little eccentric. The mother of four tore up a picture of the pope on SNL in 1992, telling the audience to "fight the real enemy," and was later ordained a priest in the Irish Orthodox Catholic and Apostolic Church (an independent group not affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church). She then came out as a lesbian in 2000 but later qualified the statement and is apparently not a lesbian.
She also released one of the greatest abums of the 1980s, The Lion and the Cobra.
Let's hope she finds a man. If you are reading this from Ireland and are interested, tell her I sent you.
