DEAD OR ALIVE - BURNS BAILED

DEAD OR ALIVE frontman PETE BURNS was released from prison on bail yesterday (16JUN06), following charges he attacked his ex-boyfriend MICHAEL SIMPSON. Burns, who recently starred on British reality TV show CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER, spent six weeks (06) in London's Wandsworth Prison for flouting his bail conditions. The 46-year-old was arrested in April (06) for allegedly attacking ex-lover Simpson and his new boyfriend before then being released on bail. He was reportedly aggrieved to see Simpson arrive at London's Ghetto Club with another man - just weeks after they split - and clubbers were reportedly forced to take cover as friends of Burns and Simpson became involved in the fracas. Burns is due to appear at Southwark Crown Court in London in July (06).
