A NORTH-EAST gay, lesbian and bisexual festival has dumped Celebrity Big Brother star Pete Burns after he stormed out of a gay pride event in the Canary Islands.
The singer, who rose to fame with 1980s band Dead or Alive, refused to play at the Gran Canaria Gay Pride Festival and is reported to have destroyed his hotel room shortly after.
It is claimed that the 48-year-old stormed out of the Maspalomas event last week after hearing another band singing a cover of his smash hit song, You Spin Me Round (Like A Record), which is still a dance-floor favourite.
