 Here's the clip that started this Liberace craziness in my house...And my brain. I think he looks like Grandpa Munster here, and I can't help but think that this is what Stephen Fry would be a little like if he played the piano. I don't know why I think that, lol, I just do.

And I love that he sued The Daily Mirror for libel after a reporter or someone pretty much called him a queer...And he won. The exact quote that appeared in the paper is, I think, a cruel one: "…the summit of sex-the pinnacle of masculine, feminine, and neuter. Everything that he, she, and it can ever want… a deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavoured, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love."

Watch out for the cheeky wink at 0:30. Big love.
