"I designed a t-shirt for fashion against AIDS," explains Rufus Wainwright in a video on the H&M web site. "It is a drawing that I made of my memories of the last tour I did."
"I'm a gay man, not that gay men are any more at risk necessarily than anybody else, but needless to say [AIDS] has been a big issue in my life since I was teenager and it still hasn't subsided as a danger in my life. It is part of my legacy as a gay man and an artist to get this message across to people."
