Music is an influential medium where the audience can be easily mislead. The pop-culture have since long introduced very influential role-models who does not seem to be promoted merely because of their musical prowess (i.e. lip syncing & autotune) but more often popularised according to their potential cultural influence, particularly in younger generations.

Sometimes the lines between talent and life-time acting seem blurred as some musicians have undeniable talent but an image that seems overly artificial or ackward. Maybe such impressions are the result of conflicting ideas about how to promote an artist or under what agenda their talent can be of use. Either way, looking back at Mick Hukcnall (wiki) it is easy to detect a large array of styles and memes but unfortunately no probant rhetoric that ever was able to make Simply Red’s lead singer any more masculine in appearence or as a pop icon.

As with other artists covered previously (Tanita Tikaram, Nina Simone, Tracy Chapman, Jimmy Somerville or Kim Carnes & others), it is not merely the looks that betray Mick Hucknall but also the high pitched voice. No doubt, major efforts have been made to arrange the melodies and vocal style as to mask the female qualities of his voice. Listenening anew on many of Simply Red’s tracks it is nevertheless evident that Hucknall has an unlikely ease of singing very high tones despite his somewhat ‘husky’ speaking voice.

What better than to disguise such a short grown effeminate singer as an alpha male and serial dating fuckalot ? As suspected, Mick Hucknall is not shy of apparently jaw-dropping female conquests including super models, celebrity actresses and other stars such as Helena Christensen, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Adriana Karembeu, Steffi Graf or Brigitte Nielsen to name but a few.
‘A red-headed man is not generally considered to be a sexual icon but when I had the fame, oh my God, it went crazy. Between 1985 and 1987, I would sleep with about three women a day, every day. I never said No. This was what I wanted from being a pop star. I was living the dream and my only regret is that I hurt some really good girls.’
–Mick Hucknall in 2010 ‘The Guardian’ interview (article)
The enticing hit song entitled ‘Holding Back The Years’ made Simply Red globally famous in the mid 1980’s and in that respect it is ironic that Mick Hucknall today seems unable to hold back the years very well in regards to EGI. In fact it rather seems like Simple Red’s lead singer is struggling to both maintain his weight and appearence. Time does not play well a lot of celebrities, and the changes we witness are not merely due to failed plastic surgery, weight-gain and poor lifestyle. More often than not celebrity appearence breakdown is better explained by Elite Gender Inversion and the procedures and medical treatments it entails.

As we develop into adults the gender-typical differences are slighter than with age as many gender typical traits are accentuated with time. For individuals who are deceptively incarnating the opposite gender, this development is of course problematic as it leads to natural males accentuating their male traits and vice versa. For Hucknall it is clear he completely lack many male features such as hip to shoulder ratio, browbone structure, decent collar bones or male jawline.

Glad to read from you, UNreal.
Your diagnosis seems plausible to me. And strangely the recognition of the persona under the mask altered the perception of the song, the melancholy became generational, historical maybe. Were the 80’s actually the secularization of the centuries old secret practices of the elite?
hello Faye
I would more believe the 1950’s and 1960’s were the decades when the Elite brought out EGI rolemodels more overtly and this might have been out of medical limitations of the plastic surgeries needed for men to convincingly impersonate females. In this regard i see breast augmentation procedures as very instrumental in the agressive sexual promotion of inverted rolemodels as the Elite only from that point on had the procedures perfected for widespread use.
(as can be seen from the 1920s and onwards, the Elite already was working on exposing MTFs nudity to the public – i.e. Josephine Baker)
Just as a remainder, the first official breast implant date back to 1895 when Vincenz Czerny performed the earliest breast implant by using the patient’s own fat tissue (allegedly collected from a tumor).
Thereafter doctors seems to have been pre-occupied with finding more health-depraving solutions for the public such as:
Ivory, glass balls, ground rubber, ox cartilage, Terylene wool, gutta-percha, Dicora, polyethylene chips, Ivalon (plastic polymer sponge), polyethylene sacs with Ivalon, polyether foam sponge (Etheron), polyethylene tape strips wound into a ball, polyester (polyurethane foam sponge), Silastic rubber and teflon-silicone prostheses…
Only in the 1950s and 60s did doctors find the “official” solution in synthetic fillers such as silicone injections which caused the first 50,000 female patients to have mastectomies… In the early 1960s the current solutions to “reliable” breast augmentation were found in silicone gel and saline solution implants.
(What seems plausible regardless of the official medical history is that breast augmentation in the case of EGI would be mostly performed using an EGI individuals own fat tissue which evidently has been possible since the early 1900s)
Thanks, UNreal for the in depth information.
