With Fortune, INXS released the album "Switch" and went on a world tour in 2006 and 2007 to promote the album which introduced the single "Pretty Vegas" and "Afterglow."
But fortune told Entertainment Tonight Canada INXS who shot him with a handshake, literally, at an airport in Hong Kong, leaving the band without a leader and a new album on hold.
"I was very lonely because I had traveled with these guys for 23 months," said Fortuna Entertainment Tonight Canada without saying exactly when it was fired.
He acknowledged that he had been taking drugs including cocaine, while with the band, but said he had been drug free for two years.
He says that fortune turns now live outside their car and had spent all his remaining money on a solo album called "Death of a motivational speaker."
"From the streets to air again on the street again. It's just me", he said.
A spokesman told the Australian media that INXS could not comment on the fortunes of ransacking.
