i mean, the first "story" i heard was that he'd gotten the other woman pregnant, but it turns out that she is a single mom, so I think better of him, than I initially had.

They left the restaurant for Issue Project Room, an arts space in Gowanus, where Byron Coley, a rock critic, read from his novel-in-progress. Ms. Pearl had met Mr. Coley before and was impressed by his encyclopedic music knowledge; she declared him “the man.” During the reading, she and her band mates sipped Sierra Nevadas and laughed knowingly at references to ESP Records and Roxy Music. “I can’t wait to read the whole thing!” she said. Afterward, in the lobby, she found that Mr. Moore and Ms. Prinz had left without a goodbye. “That’s Thurston,” she sighed.

Kim wrote a tweet yesterday about the Elle article but she deleted it, I was gonna copy paste it here but now it's gone.

She said it over exaggerated her relationship with Kurt and something else.

ayiyi. I hung out with Eva a few times years ago.

I wonder if Thurston will be compelled to give his side of the story now this is out there? It could get very messy.

next Arthur Magazine cover story: "Thurston Tells All -- In The Form Of A POEM."

Feel like a hypocrite since I roll my eyes at any and all celebrity gossip, but am completely interested and nosy when it comes to this

global tetrahedron, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 18:40 (thirteen years ago)

i get the feeling they're on relatively good terms but she just wanted to air him out since people had been asking about it and he probably can't say much in response

some dude, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 18:43 (thirteen years ago)

considering he was the one doing the cheating, there probably isn't much to say, as he seems like the kind of guy that really doesn't want to look like an asshole.

She pointed out a couple factual errors the author had got wrong... one was where her next show was going to be and another one about... something. My memory has really gone out the window.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Tuesday, 23 April 2013 18:56 (thirteen years ago)

when you threw out that trash, man, was the bag in your hand? did you dump it?

some dude, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 18:59 (thirteen years ago)

Good one.

grandavis, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 19:06 (thirteen years ago)

So, I'm not really sure, but I think that this is the same person who thurston is schtupping, which only makes the whole thing much more amazing:

I think they got divorced? sarahell mentions that she is a single mom upthread.

da croupier, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 20:05 (thirteen years ago)

I know the wedding was from 2009, but, still, she is a woman who was married to a royal dude and who very likely was still married to him when she started seeing Thurston. Unless their marriage was really, really short, which I guess is possible.

Several Dutch trashy tabloids would actually be interested in this, seeing the story Askance linked to. I am guessing it will take them at least two years to find out for themselves.

Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 23:00 (thirteen years ago)

Two big revelations after reading these last few posts:

1) Demolished Thoughts is actually pretty nice!
2) The possibility that our future king might have met Thurston Moore!

Yo dawg, Kim specifically mentions she was dating an erstwhile bandmember (initials: Jim O'Rourke) when Thurston started seeing her.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 15:18 (thirteen years ago)

she sounds nice

christmas candy bar (al leong), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 15:28 (thirteen years ago)

since the conclusion of that Elle interview ends w/ Rodham worship, and my last-ever SY show meeant enduring Thurston bumbling through some praise for Obama, my long-held belief that T and K are both fairly stupid people is confirmed.

Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:06 (thirteen years ago)

now let's not pretend you're really LOOKING for confirmation, ever, from anyone, for that belief

j., Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:10 (thirteen years ago)

I like much of the music they made together, but I always winced when either of them bandied about words like "bourgeois." Dunno if they're dumb, but they're definitely at their best when the music does the talking.

that's sweet, kim and thurston seem dumb to you? who are they and who are you again?

Iago Galdston, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 17:26 (thirteen years ago)

to be less hostile, read some of kim's writing for artforum in the early 80s....NOT. DUMB.

Iago Galdston, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 17:27 (thirteen years ago)

not on pain of death, thx

Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 24 April 2013 17:39 (thirteen years ago)

i actually know some pretty smart Democrats. book smart anyway.

scott seward, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 17:50 (thirteen years ago)

her article on glenn branca, "i only kill in my dreams" is very good, amirite morbs?

Iago Galdston, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 17:56 (thirteen years ago)

is there an easy way to track down her artforum stuff?

don't really think that kim and thurston saying positive things about obama or HRC can be read as an endorsement of droning or whatever.

Kim wrote an Artforum article in the mid eighties about rock idolatry that gets cited often.

SACRED COW ALERT!
i don't think they are dumb, but thurston always seems kinda childish.
also, the couple's admiration of some specific underground art scenes during the years is narrow minded and sometimes pretentious in a broad minded kinda way,if you know what i mean.

the new poetry label thing for example, even with the "thurston stamp of approval" that some people bow to i guess, is a total wtf imo.

nostormo, Wednesday, 24 April 2013 20:51 (thirteen years ago)

but thurston always seems kinda childish

yeah i recently saw 1991: the year punk broke for the first time and i thought thurston was hella annoying and childish. esp since he was like in his 30s when it was filmed
