Singer Sinead O'Connor Urges End To Clinton Trial

DUBLIN (Reuters) - Outspoken Irish singer Sinead O'Connor has urged the U.S. Senate to stop the impeachment of President Clinton, who she has described as the ''sexiest man in the universe.''

''I felt it my duty, in a starving world, to butt in so as to help prevent the American Senate from wasting money on this Bill Clinton nonsense any longer,'' she wrote in a letter published in The Irish Times Monday.

O'Connor, who caused outrage in 1992 when she ripped up a picture of Pope John Paul II on a live U.S. TV chat show, has expressed support for Clinton before.

She told the Irish Independent last month: ''Bill Clinton is the sexiest man in the universe. I would bring my own cigars. My mouth is watering at the prospect. I thought he was sexy, anyway, but now ... my God!''

In her letter Monday she wrote of Clinton: ''Does impeachment mean they're gonna turn him into a peach? If so, can I eat him?''

Apart from her music, particularly her haunting hit ''Nothing Compares To U,'' O'Connor has become known for her trademark shaven head, criticism of the Roman Catholic Church and support for women's access to abortion, which is illegal in the overwhelmingly Catholic Irish Republic.

This speaks volumes on the current disgraceful situation IMHO. I needed some humor. I love it. A show of support from a has-been one hit wonder artist.

Maybe Rick James (of Superfreak fame) will speak out in support next. At least his song was good and it is still played today. HA!

Well, it is late and I think I need to call it a day.
