Illusionist Derren Brown has denied reports that he plans to use his powers of suggestion to change people's sexuality.

Yesterday The Sun reported that the former Bristol University student is devising a mind experiment that will turn a straight man gay, and a gay man straight.

    Derren Brown has no plans to play with people's sexualities

This morning the showman described The Sun's story as "made up", saying that an original interview he had given to Gay Times was misconstrued by the tabloid newspaper.

Speaking on Twitter this morning he said: "It's odd, seeing as in the original GT article I said changing sexuality WOULDN'T work."
