CULTURE: Jake Shears and Babydaddy Talk About Robert Mapplethorpe Exhibit!

Scissor Sisters lead singer Jake Shears and musician and lyricist Babydaddy curated a Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit at the Alison Jacques Gallery in London. It's called "Nightwork" after their album, for which they used a Mapplethorpe photo as the cover.

Said Shears to CNN: "I really wanted to acknowledge those people and those creatives that had been through this world before us and had really paved the way for a band like us to exist -- because we were never the first people to do what we do, you know, there were plenty before."
