Morrissey has paid tribute to “dear friend” Victoria Wood following her death at the age of 62.
The former Smiths frontman has long been an admirer of the iconic British comedian - he even borrowed some lines from her song ’14 Again’ for his own track, ‘Rusholme Ruffians’.
The pair also had tea together on camera for Wood’s TV programme Victoria Wood’s Nice Cup Of Tea - the most British hour of television ever made.
Now, following Wood’s death after “a short but brave” battle with cancer at the age of 62, Morrissey is just one of the stars to have paid tribute to Wood. “Tears today for my dear friend Victoria Wood,” he wrote on fansite True To You. “So unbearable that it cannot be true. I am lost.”
