Rhett Defends His Fax Decision

INXS frontman Michael Hutchence’s brother, Rhett has defended his decision to sell the late singer’s personal belongings on eBay. The items include a fax to then girlfriend Kylie Minogue and a pair of Michael’s glasses.

Rhett’s mom reportedly criticized and disowned her son for cashing in on Michael’s fame almost 10 years after the rock star’s death. Rhett’s reponse? He’s only doing it to have what Kylie and Michael had - love!

He claims he was auctioning the “unimportant” items so he could afford to move to Holland to be with his girlfriend. “I assure you all the really important things I’m keeping. I will be passing on a lot of these things to Tiger (Michael’s daughter) when she’s old enough.” he said. “The fact is, I’m in love. She’s young and beautiful and everything I could want, I just need to raise some money so I can be with her. Michael wouldn’t have minded at all, he’d be happy I’m in love and have some direction in my life.”

I'm on Team Mom's side. Go get a job instead of trying to "cash in" on your dead brothers' fame!

Michael Hutchence Sexy Fax To Sell On EBAY!

Kylie, who dated the late INXS frontman Michael Hutchence in the 90s, was left devastated after discovering Michael's brother Rhett is selling a sexy fax sent to her in 1990.

Rhett boasted on auction website eBay: "This is a fax Michael wrote and sent to Kylie on September 19, 1990. I have a similar, yet raunchier one I'll keep, yet this real slice of history could be yours." The fax reveals steamy details about Kylie and Michael's white-hot sex life. The pair are said to have kept their relationship alive with racy faxes and phone calls when they were apart. Michael's mother Patricia Glassop is horrified by Rhett's behavior and has disowned him for trying to cash in on his brother's death.
She fumed: "I hope Kylie finds out and addresses the issue herself, because that fax is no-one else's business." Other items on sale include handwritten lyrics to INXS hit 'Listen Like Thieves' and a pair of Michael's glasses. Rhett even cruelly offers his mother a discounted price. He said: "The frames are French and the glass is pretty thick, unlike the previous owner. I do not think his daughter Tiger would have much use for these, and I feel icky about dead people's glasses. Mum, you can have a 20 per cent discount."

The INXS singer was found dead aged 37, naked and hanging from a door in a Sydney hotel room in 1997.

What an A$$HOLE to be using his dead brothers' belongings to make some dough! People will do anything to make a buck. I'm glad his mum disowned him. I loved INXS in the day. Saw Michael perform once in the rain, he took off his shirt and it was LOVE at first sight! Miss you Michael!
