But the New Yorker said that instead of loving insects, he was actually afraid of them.

I said The New York Post: “A lot of people think I like bugs – actually quite the opposite.

“I’m afraid of bugs, I hate bugs.”

The recorded number is 864 although music producer Michael is said to have a total of 889 ink errors.
