James made a call from his NY hotel room and the next morning he was on national TV, exposing everything about the Axl's, time travel, homosexual activity and how the band shunned him.
He spun it a bit, much like the newly elected NYC congressman spun his resume: he said they got rid of him becaus unlike the rest of Cake Cream he was not gay, and he said Cake Cream was offended because he actually enjoyed having sex with women, not men.
The reaction was fast and furious: the internet lit up with condemnation of Cake Cream and Axl.
Such an intense homophobic reaction was last seen on the backwater VCT forum.
Axl fielded calls from various people telling him that due to the latest developments, previously scheduled concerts were now cancelled.
Fans posted videos of them burning their Cake Cream CD's and logo'ed T-shirts.
It had all come tumbling down in a flash.
James parlayed his notoriety by joining a popular band, and to celebrate he fucked some spare chick he picked up in a bar.
Life was going on.
