From this week's Popbitch:
>> War Games << Heather goes out on a limb What could have made Heather Mills-McCartney angry enough to have thrown such lurid accusations at her husband this week? Well, Macca's legal team had suggested to Heather that they weren't sure she should be entitled to anything from Sir Paul as she had misrepresented herself at the time of the wedding by not revealing she had, in effect, been a prostitute. And Heather does have a history of delusional flights of fantasy. There's a journalist at Private Eye also called Heather Mills who discovered that Mills-McCartney had been going around pretending to be her for a while. Take that and party Harleopolice.

[Edited 10/18/06 14:01pm] What bonham 'rape' incident do you mean? Are you talking about on the plane? plz explain, thanks Yeah, the plane incident is the only one I've heard about as well. You could pretty much say though that every single Zep band member had sex with 14 year old girls though. They all did that while they were on tour I'd be willing to bet. Not sure I would call it rape though, as young groupies back then were the norm and there was even a group of "baby groupies" who were even younger than 14 who would camp out in hotel hallways waiting for the chance to be invited into rock stars' rooms. It wasn't a big deal back then, and times have obviously changed. Pretty crazy though now that I think about how young those girls all were at the time. When I was 14, it never even occurred to me to try to sleep with rock stars. I never heard anything though about an actual rape by Bonham though, except for the plane incident, in which nothing actually happened because he was subdued before it could go any further.

Harlepolis said: It easier to take his side. Hey, he's Paul McCartney
The media(and even the public) need to straighten up and fly right. I agree. I don't know much about their marriage but Paul does seem mellow and people pick up on that, but I assume he can be a prick, too. I bet there is at least a little truth to all those accustions....I bet she wants some money, too. | |

We're not talking about having sex with minors; apparantly the nme journalist said bonzo tried TO FORCE HIMSELF AND RAPE a young teenage fan. Bonzo however did the same thing on a plane; the problem in accusing him is NOBODY knows if he would of actually done it. He was apparantly a different man when not drinking and with his famiy. | |

By the way, Charles Mingus was also a genius. Read Under The Underdog, his "autobiography", if you want proof. Or better still listen to the wonderful music he made. And yes, he was very violent. And you forgot Brian Jones. Genius (musically, yes, could play an instrument he picked up), violent towards women (oooooh yes!). [Edited 10/22/06 4:31am] There are three sides to every story.

Jay z is one of the greatest rappers ever and his debut album is a stone cold classic GENIUS album. You said Axl rose isn't a genius MILLIONS of people would say different. Many think AFD is the best rock album ever. OPINIONS; don't insult others because of theirs. [Edited 10/22/06 4:46am] | |

You cut and pasted some Jay Z lyrics you obviously consider "urban poetry". Or is that "urbane poetry". Worship and adore. All the guys i mentioned are SKUM! Your impassioned defence of that screeching racist inbred homophobe Axl Rose didn't once mention the word "scum" anywhere in it. I do not like any of the entertainers i listed; May I refer you to your quote? "you must be kidding! Axl rose has wrote some of the greatest songs in the last two decades. He is a good piano player, producer and great song writer; GENIUS! Bonham is the greatest druumer EVER; he may of been joking when he bent over the women, he apparantly said'i;m gonna take her from behind'. He bacame an alcoholic on the road and was supposed to be 100% different when with his family and sober. R.kelly is a genius; listen to his catalogue. That's why EVERYONE wants to work with him from britney, ja rule, isley bro's MJ, tyrese, omarion, m houston, snoop dogg e.t.c Slash is phenomenal on the guitar; he is a genius! Moon was amazing and i have never heard anyone say different Sounds like love to me. Or admiration. R Kelly - slurp - Slash - slurp - Racist Hick Axl - slurp - Bonzo - slurp - Keith Moon - slurp. i do not even like Prince! So, ur, what are you doing HERE then? Apart from getting your ass handed to you? BTW; James Brown is a rapist then!! Really. News to me. What's your source? He beat his late wife up (didn't kill her though, that was Jerry Lee Lewis). And he no dioubt had his way with half his backing singers and dancers, but no one has ever said he was a rapist. You're just being petulant and grabbing at thin air. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |
