JohnLaws, CBE (born August 8, 1935) is a prominent and controversial radio presenter in Australia, whose mellifluous voice earned him the nickname 'Golden Tonsils'.
Born in Wau, Papua New Guinea, Laws was educated at Knox Grammar School and Mosman Preparatory School in Sydney, Australia.
Laws had previously apologised for another incident in which he called gay TV personality Carson Kressley, of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy fame, a "pompous little pansy prig" and "a pillow biter" before urging him to "piss off, pansy".
Now at his 50th anniversary, JohnLaws is the highest paid radio broadcaster in the world, at the top of the radio ratings ladder in several Australian markets, and broadcasts the biggest radio programme in Australia from behind a golden microphone.
JohnLaws has been given the nickname Golden Tonsils and the title, King of Radio because he is the trusted voice of 'dial in democracy', an Australian legend and to those in and outside the radio industry, JohnLaws is an icon.
JohnLaws returned to 2UE when the station had plummeted to 8th place in the Sydney ratings, but quickly returned to the top of the ratings, where 2UE has consistently remained since his return in 1988.
