On 16 February 2009, JD revealed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight Canada that INXS fired him from the band with a shake of the hand at an airport in Hong Kong. Fortune acknowledges his drug habit is likely to have contributed to INXS' decision. The band is once again without a permanent frontman. JD is currently in Canada attempting to get his solo album out ("Death of a Motivational Speaker"). He said he's been off cocaine for the past 2 years. However, in a recent interview, Fortune has admitted to heavy cocaine use during the latest INXS tour. INXS responded by saying that Fortune had never been fired by the band, but that the band now was reluctant to continue working with him.

  • I met his brother Rhett in Australia a while ago and it wasn't pleasant. He was wearing a t-shirt saying, 'That's not my brother'. His friend had a t-shirt which said, 'Mock Star: INXS'. I had to say something, like, 'You don't know me, I don't know you. We're just humans.' Something changed after that and, by the end of the night, it was a different story. Rhett took the t-shirt off and bought another one. He hugged me and said he was sorry.
