I kind of feel like “I met his mother” got glossed over here. What’s THAT story?

Had to pull out my kindle, but I think Once Upon a Rock Star by Rita Rae Roxx was the one that was trying too hard to put a happy face on pathetic stuff.

The Police were one - I’m a fan so I remember that one off the top of my head. Which isn’t to say they didn’t indulge themselves with older fans, I’m sure.

Last year I read a couple of groupie memoirs and I recall one, in particular, who seemed to be trying to force the “wow, it was so awesome” theme onto what mostly seemed like coming of age floundering. Certain bands were too “stuck up” or “boring” to give her the time of day and all I could think was “no, they were…

Nicole used to be a masseuse — strong hands and she would know where to squeeze hard.

Bipolar? If he channeled mania into writing it would explain a lot. Including the aversion to psychiatry.

That’s pretty much the case as laid out by the Remini show — most of the centers around the world are just empty buildings. They’re not staffed, they’re not functioning. All the $ going to propping up the visuals, lifestyles of the chosen ones. And probably Swiss bank accounts for the inevitable flights before…

I’m an old. I remember when Nicole Kidman said it was perfectly compatible with Catholicism (at least in the presence of Tom and her minder). But that was when they were still claiming to be a philosophy and not a religion at all.

It’s to prevent knockoffs (like Shake it Off smoothies or Back in Style perfume). Beyonce trademarked her children’s names, Sasha Fierce and beyhive (among a zillion others). People copyright their album titles and tour names. It’s completely normal and shows that the artist (or her/his people) are looking out for…

Oooh, I’m signing up for Acorn soon — hope it’s on there!

So, basically... “bitch set me up.” Got it.

At least he didn’t make her do it in (West) Palm Beach. Or the Regency.

I read this book as an adult and have no memory of this scene whatsoever. Geez - maybe I blocked it out?

I actually think she’s come a long way. The previous two years she was horrific. This year she held back in the presence of way more provocation than would previously have set her off.

On one of their trips the local bar was called the Turtle, I think, and she and her friend had their drink on and would keep screaming “Turtle time!” to indicate it was party time.

Sounds like the guy who wrote that has had girlfriends who spent a lot of time in the bathroom trying to be alone.

This reminds me of Justice Ginsburg being asked when there would be “enough” women on the Supreme Court, and she said when all 9 justices are women. And that was shocking to people, how radical!... yet the same people weren’t shocked by the fact that all 9 were men for generations. When such a thing isn’t remarkable…

That’s what I figured. He’d attract more attention waiting in a cab stand or even standing at the limo line assuming they’d have somebody come for him. Moving fast with no entourage makes him less of a sitting duck.

William flew coach on some American short flight a few years ago (some kind of personal trip, as I recall). I can see Harry jumping on the train so long as nobody knew ahead of time. How long of a ride is it? Short enough that they could be off before social media kicked in a turnout?

And now I’ll be singing “let’s get together, yeah yeah yeah” for the rest of the day. Thanks!
