Knowing George aka Le Gateau Chocolat since Brighton times, I wasn't surprised to see him being as successful as he has become now! He was born to be a star and look at him... spreading chocolate love wherever he is.

Confusingly not, in fact, a chocolate cake, Le Gateau Chocolat is an opera-singing diva with a penchant for being wrapped in body-hugging lycra and a passion for laughter. Having performed at both the Royal Opera House and the Copenhagen Opera House, he sings outrageous and moving renditions of pop, jazz and musical theatre numbers in a killer baritone.

Tonight, Le Gateau was performing at King Edward VI in Angel, Islington and, as a true diva, he arrived late. The King Edward VI has been a gay bar since late 70s and deserves marks for endurance... this is, we're told, how pubs on the scene used to be in days of old.

Look out for Le Gateau Chocolat at the ever-changing desert trolley of cabaret delights that is London show La Clique. Le Gateau is joining a motley crew of artists who helped the almost indescribable La Clique to the title of Best Entertainment at the recent Laurence Olivier Awards.

But **warning** chocolate is very addictive, mmmmm!
