Well, Sean wasn't famous then but ms. Name Withheld would still have... (If bob wasn't playing).

The US writer... She wasn't in that infamous 'tape'?

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 5 March 2004 15:55 (twenty-two years ago)

No, think Bay City Rollers....

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 5 March 2004 15:58 (twenty-two years ago)

... ?

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 5 March 2004 15:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I really shouldn't say anything more as she is friendly acquaintance of mine who writes for cough cough the lefty paper. There are enough clues for you to work out who she is!

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

I know several Reading-based people who've shagged Mr Numan!

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, that was a 'who' clue rather than a 'what happened' clue?

(We talking a book published?)

He actually married a (somewhat obsessive, from what I've heard) female fan didn't he?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:14 (twenty-two years ago)

so that's where she went!

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

We are talking a book published. About the Bay City Rollers. Written by said journalist.

― DJ Mencap (DJ Mencap), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:21 (twenty-two years ago)

< searches Amazon.... > ummmm.... Ray Coleman?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Mencap, if you add 'based on her teenage experiences stalking the group' maybe Stewart will get it.

Gary Numan met his wife some years after her obsessive schooldays fandom but she still liked him and all. And they are indeed still happily married and have a baby boy.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 5 March 2004 16:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I saw her being interviewed on telly once a few years back and she was saying stuff like "I always knew I'd end up married to Gary one day" - and I was thinking: "Uh huh? Really? Really? Is that right? How fascinating" OK, now don't turn 'round, don't run or make any sudden movements, just keep eye contact and back slowly towards the door and if she makes a lunge for you....

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 5 March 2004 17:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm sure she's very nice really though! < he said, hurriedly >

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 5 March 2004 17:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Snarf.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 5 March 2004 17:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Why am I not surprised by the notion of Gary Numan marrying an obsessive fan?

― Dadaismus (Dada), Friday, 5 March 2004 17:35 (twenty-two years ago)

A few years ago I heard that the singer from Bush was a former Boy George conquest. True or false?

― Phil Freeman (Phil Freeman), Friday, 5 March 2004 19:29 (twenty-two years ago)

1984, third grade: I remember hearing that Vince Neil killed his buddy from Hanoi Rocks not in a drunk driving accident, but by stabbing him! In the balls! While hopped up on drugs!!

― Will (will), Friday, 5 March 2004 19:40 (twenty-two years ago)

A few years ago I heard that the singer from Bush was a former Boy George conquest. True or false?

Not quite, but in his autobiography the Boy specifically named Rossdale as being the latest Sweet Young Thing of a friend of his, talked about meeting Rossdale for the first time etc. Rossdale has spent the rest of his time trying to pretend that didn't happen and getting an arranged marriage set up with a labelmate oh dear did I say that clearly that was my mistake I shouldn't spread such gossip around oh now.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 5 March 2004 19:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Prince was short for (excuse the pun) Prince of Darkness. Backing this up was the fact that 1999 filpped upside down was 666 1 as in "666 is #1!"

What about Rock Stars Who Aren't Realy Dead:
-Elvis
-2pac (2pac is always still alive, but Biggie remains dead, weird, that.)
-Jim Morrison

― Randy Reiss (undeadsinatra), Friday, 5 March 2004 23:20 (twenty-two years ago)

add another couple to the semen stomach-pump story, when i was in junior high it was all around that it was Jonathan and Jordan of the New Kids.

― jonviachicago, Saturday, 6 March 2004 02:19 (twenty-two years ago)

The version I heard was Rick Springfield. But I'm 32. I'm sure these things go in cycles.

― Broheems (diamond), Saturday, 6 March 2004 02:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I, too, heard the NKOTB version of the stomach-pump story in ninth grade in 1990. Another rumor that someone offered one morning in homeroom was that the two guys from Air Supply were getting married.

― John Fredland (jfredland), Saturday, 6 March 2004 10:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Blah blah blah, the stomach pump story for me was about Jon Bon Jovi, or maybe all the members of Bon Jovi, or the semen was in Jon's stomach but it was from all the other members of Bon Jovi, or something like that.

― NA (Nick A.), Saturday, 6 March 2004 13:56 (twenty-two years ago)

all the artists I've been told who have had ribs extracted so they can give themselves a blowjob

This actually was true of (early 20th c Ital poet) Gabriele d'Annunzio.

― E. Pluribus Unum, Sunday, 7 March 2004 02:45 (twenty-two years ago)

In grade 4, I had a hand-me-down David Bowie 1977 world tour T-Shirt that I wore to school. One day as we were going in from recess another kid says "David Bowie's bi!" I asked what that meant and he said that he had sex with Mick Jagger.

Also, I heard that prince had removed a rib so he could auto-fellate. I never heard no stomach pump stories though.

― Elliot (Elliot), Sunday, 7 March 2004 03:18 (twenty-two years ago)

E-40 is actually a white dude named Andy Partridge

― Andy K (Andy K), Sunday, 7 March 2004 03:25 (twenty-two years ago)

At our school it was Marc Almond and, always, HORSE-SEMEN. We also had Hendrix, but it was acid in the headband, natch. A little later, I believed Screech was Mike D's brother for a long time. Are we sure it's not true. They have such similar voices.

― Jamie, Tuesday, 9 March 2004 11:34 (twenty-two years ago)

i don't know what these boards or anything, i just did a google search for jewel. and getting her stomach pumped. my friends and i had an argument last night about it.

i remember, very clearly, sitting on my neighbors couch and MTV news came on. it was on mtv news, i assume they verify their sources? or maybe i assume wrongly. and even said, had her stomach pumped of whatever amount of semen. that's the only thing i don't remember.

― sylvia, Friday, 19 March 2004 17:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Maybe, on this occasion, it was 10ml.

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 19 March 2004 17:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Maybe it was 10CC?!?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 19 March 2004 17:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh no! I'm now stuck with a mental image of Jewel laying on a bed and Lol Creme and Kevin Godley standing over her.... and that isn't a ball-point in his hand....

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 19 March 2004 17:15 (twenty-two years ago)

It would certainly explain why Kevin Godley always seems to have his eyes half closed; and as for Lol....

http://www.cathedralstone.net/Pics/10cc.jpg

.... well, they obviously didn't call him "Creme" for nothing

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Friday, 19 March 2004 17:26 (twenty-two years ago)

three months pass...

add "david bowie" to the GALLON OF CUM list upthread.

and it was FRANK ZAPPA who was rumored to have eaten shit whilst onstage w/ alice cooper.

"This actually was true of (early 20th c Ital poet) Gabriele d'Annunzio".

Probably true. Anyway, he would have appreciated it. But curious sexual behaviours were usual among the fascist intelligentsjia.

― Marco Damiani (Marco D.), Saturday, 17 July 2004 16:36 (twenty-one years ago)

I heard that Phil Collins was a rabid anti-semite and didn't call the police when there was a body floating in his pool after a party, because the guy was Jewish.

Also, I heard that Whitney Houston was Mariah Carey's mother.

And, I admit that as of reading this thread, I thought that the Elvis on the toilet thing was true. Seems like not such a far-fetched time to have a heart attack, actually...

There was a rumour in my grade school that Peter Criss killed Shawn Cassidy by shoving drum sticks down his throat.

― darin (darin), Saturday, 12 February 2005 00:43 (twenty-one years ago)

"that guy is str8" this rumour was never beleived

― La Camilla Henemark, Saturday, 12 February 2005 01:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Jon Bon Jovi was the stomach-pumpee in Australia, circa 1990.
(Story was told to me as a bizarre pick-up line by a boy I liked at the time. I lost interest after that...)

― VegemiteGrrl (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 12 February 2005 06:32 (twenty-one years ago)

stomach pump story for my school days involved Jordan of NKOTB. we also circulated a rumor that Morrissey was spotted eating at McDonalds

― ken taylrr (ken taylrr), Saturday, 12 February 2005 07:11 (twenty-one years ago)

In my high school:

* AC/DC = "Ant-Christ, Devil's Child".

* The old "In The Air Tonight" story about Phil Collins witnessing (from afar) a guy who witnessed a drowning and refused to help, etc, etc. (I remember hearing this one referenced in Eminem's "Stan" a decade later and thinking, "Wow, that story's got legs".)

* The recipient of the belly-full-of-semen was NKTOB's Donnie Wahlberg.

― Tantrum (Tantrum The Cat), Saturday, 12 February 2005 16:37 (twenty-one years ago)

jordan for my skool 2!

Grafitti on a wall at our school, late '70's/early'80's:

"bowie is biosexual" (note spelling)

Various rumours about punk bands (all unnamed, "I heard it from my brother in London") went the rounds in '76/'77:

that there was a band who killed themselves en masse on stage during a gig.

that there was a band who wouldn't go onstage unless they all had boners.

that the singer from a punk band murdered an audience member mid-set with a chainsaw.

(most weirdly) that the boomtown rats(!) had a video in which domestic cats were electrocuted during the course of the song (!!! I know!! what the fuck!!)

I have no idea where any of this came from, unless one of my peers had a really fucked imagination/soh. We believed it all though. (we were, like, 12)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Saturday, 12 February 2005 22:39 (twenty-one years ago)

stomach pumping -> on the North Shore in Mass., we had that courtesy of Gwen Stefani and, presumably, Gavin Rossdale.

Also, around 95 or so, that Dave Matthews had AIDS.

― Dapes, Sunday, 13 February 2005 00:23 (twenty-one years ago)

a parade of Marilyn Manson rumours incl. "dog thrown to crowd", "people spit in bucket he pours it in his wounds or some shit."

― Nic de Teardrop (Nicholas), Sunday, 13 February 2005 11:23 (twenty-one years ago)

seven months pass...

that there was a band who wouldn't go onstage unless they all had boners.

I believe that this band was Motorhead.

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Sunday, 25 September 2005 18:40 (twenty years ago)

Prince and Michael Jackson were brothers. one more 'Jordan from NKOTB'-era stomach pumping.

― tremendoid (tremendoid), Sunday, 25 September 2005 20:00 (twenty years ago)

Marilyn Man1on is the kid from Mr Belvedere
