MORRISSEY EJECTS NME EDITOR FROM HOTEL
British singer MORRISSEY's feud with music magazine the NME continues - after he had the publication's editor removed from a Los Angeles hotel.

The former Smiths frontman and the NME fell out in December (07) after the magazine printed an interview with the singer suggesting he was racist - remarks which the singer claims were taken out of context. The star and the magazine's editor Conor McNicholas were due to stay in the same hotel last week (ends11May08), independently of one another, when Morrissey learned of the double booking. Merck Mercuriadis, Morrissey's spokesperson, says, "I have a very good relationship with the hotel, and when I explained the situation they agreed it would not be appropriate for Conor to stay." The NME says, "Thanks to Morrissey's people, Conor got upgraded to a penthouse in a sister hotel." Morrissey took legal action against the magazine and McNicholas in December 2007, following the issue's publication.
