Justin Hawkins, walking his dog, Zeus.
The Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins recently opened up about the amount of dogging that he sees when walking his dog. He admitted that he lives in a dogging hotspot and regularly sees men seeking outdoor 'fun' from his window.
Speaking to The Guardian about the unusual sights he sees from his new home, Hawkins said: "I rent a house next to a nature reserve and a football pitch, and a beach – a wild one, where people go to do dogging.
"There's a lot of sex that happens in the bushes. I see menstanding in them, fully erect. Happens all the time. It used to be a nudist area. Great place to walk the dogs, although it's not ideal if you don't want to see men's cocks. "
He added, "You expect people like me to do it, but you'd never catch me dogging."
