Take a look at this outtake from photographer Tim Hailand's One Day in the Life of Jake Shears photo book of Jake naked in the shower (click for a better view)! The book - out now - gives fans a glimpse into the private life of the Scissor Sisters frontman. Jake provides his own text for the book, which also includes a special intro by Elton John and afterword by Kylie Minogue. A portion of proceeds of this book will benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
Other books in Tim Hailand's series include One Day in the Life of Rufus Wainwright and One Day in the Life of Daniel Radcliffe. All can be purchased here: onedayinthelifeof.org
In addition, Jake and Tim will be doing local book signings of One Day in the Life of Jake Shears together in Los Angeles and Atlanta. Info on the signings can be found after the jump.
In February photographer Tim Hailand is releasing the next two books in his One Day in The Life of... photo book series: One Day in The Life of RUFUS WAINWRIGHT and One Day in The Life of JAKE SHEARS. The series gives an inside glimpse into the private lives of celebrities, following them over the course of one day. Both Rufus and Jake provide text for their respective books, and each has a special intro: Elton John wrote Rufus' and Cherry Vanilla wrote Jake's. A portion of proceeds go to a charity of the celeb's choice. Rufus has chosen the Kate McGarrigle Fund for cancer research in honor of his late mother, and Jake has chosen the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
Tim Hailand released One Day in The Life of DANIEL RADCLIFFE earlier this year, and in later 2011 he'll release the fourth book in his series: One Day in The Life of GARETH THOMAS.
Learn more about the series at onedayinthelifeof.org, where both books are available for a special reduced pre-order price.
Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters sits down with Scissor Sisters News host Lester Zizmore to explain his lawsuit against the band. As you'll hear in this video, Grohl was traumatized - for life - upon seeing Jake Shears' testicles at a recent concert. Flashbacks, say Grohl, occur regularly and leave him with bouts of anxiety, panic, chills and explosive diarrhea. Grohl is seeking $75 million dollars. See the incriminating photos from the gig in question.

It's not my favorite song from Night Work, but the video is a definite visual treat. Loving these lyrics at 2:27 too: "I'm going to find that man that is the right shade of bottle tan. A man that smells like cocoa butter and cash. Take me anyway you like it. In front of the fireplace. In front of your yacht. In front of my parents. I don't give a damn baby, just take me!"
