re: Siegfried & Roy Finished ?

Oct 4, 2003 — 10:19:34 PM

Hey...I don't even think it was Roy!!!! Check out this old Las Vegas Sun article I found ( http://www.lasvegassun.com/sunbin/stories/archives/2001/feb/23/511475220.html )

The most interesting quote has their manager explaining why the rumor of Roy dying of AIDS and being replaced by a double couldn't be true:

"In promoting a flamboyant, surreal show and image, both performers continually deal with bizarre speculation -- much stranger fodder than the Roy-has-AIDS talk. Over the past few years Yuman has been asked if Roy has passed away and been replaced by a double.

"They are two of the most famous live entertainers in the world, and people fabricate stories about them," Yuman said. "Let me ask you this: If you had a Doberman you had owned and trained from 4 weeks old to 4 years old, and you suddenly died and were replaced by a twin brother to care for this animal, what would happen?

"The Doberman would bite your butt off, that's what. There's only one man on Earth who can handle an 800-pound cat and that's Roy Uwe Ludwig Horn."
