CULTURE: Huey Lewis loves his gay fans!

Dave Karger of Entertainment Weekly (and Ocasional OUTview Contributor)  chatted with Huey about his new album Soulsville and mentions the “It Gets Better” video that the former MTV VJ Dave Holmes posted where he said that seeing you at the beginning of the “I Want A New Drug” .

Dave played it for Huey who reacted this way: “That’s cute. I’m flattered! That’s sweet. I remember when I filmed that scene, I didn’t wear a shirt, I wore boxer shorts. It was the Paul Newman scene in The Sting; that’s where I swiped it. Paul Newman wakes up and he’s hung over and fills the sink with ice and puts his head in the ice. So that was just a rip-off of that scene.
