I knew a girl in the 8th grade who dated a local rock band guy in his early 20's. It was kind of creepy then, and that was 1988. In her defense she was smoking hot for her age (just kidding....jeesh).
TONIGHT I AM THE HOST OF:
BIG UPS TO MY NEW PHOTOSHOP PROGRAM - WHAT WHAT!!!
Unbeknownst to Steven, the Girl is actually an undercover agent working with Dateline NBC.
The trap is set. Our agent is brought backstage while the band finishes butchering their encore. Meanwhile, I am crouched behind the vegan deli tray with a hidden camera nestled between the broccoli and shitake mushrooms, when in walks Steven, looking for his prey.
I jump at the opportunity.
MN: Mr Tyler, I would like to ask you a few questions, will you sit down please?
ST: I don't wanna miss a thing.
MN: Good. Did you sing "Hot Tramp, Daddy's little cutie, you're so fine"? to a young fan tonight?
ST: You can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died
MN: Really? So when you were bent over the stage, directly in front of her "singin' "hey diddle diddle"with your kitty in the middle of the swing like you just don't care", you weren't insinuating something about her hush?
ST: I was saying a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight...
MN: Sure Mr Tyler. How do you think her parents would feel about this behavior?
ST: Her Daddy said I took it just a little too far.
MN: How would you feel if this was your daughter?
ST: Daddy's little cutie?
MN: Yes Steven, Daddy's little cutie... Have you ever heard of To Catch a Predator? We are filming this.
As I point out the hidden camera, Steven yells "Kiss your Sassafras" and he gallops out the backstage door, only to be tackled by local police waiting for him.
Get the idea?

Little Queenie
I got lumps in my throat when I saw her comin down the aisle
I got the wiggles in my knees when she looked at me and sweetly smiled
Well there she is again standin over by the record machine
Well she looks like a model on the cover of a magazine
But she's too cute to be a minute over seventeen
Of all the Charlie Berrys in the world, you're the Charlie Berriest. You blockhead.
On December 23, 1959, Chuck Berry is arrested in St. Louis, Missouri, on charges relating to his transportation of a 14-year-old girl across state lines for allegedly "immoral purposes."
He was convicted on March 11, 1960, and sentenced to five years' imprisonment and a $5,000 fine.
Although he would have his conviction vacated and a new trial ordered by a Federal Appeals Court in October 1960 due to disparaging racial comments made by the judge in his original trial, Berry would be convicted again on retrial in March 1961 and serve the better part of the next two years in prison.

- Pretty damning stuff. Did Chuck get a fair trial? I don't know. Did Chucky like the young girlies? Well...
From the St Louis Post-Dispatch on Dec 27 1989:
A suit accuses rock 'n' roll pioneer Chuck Berry of videotaping women as they used the women's room at his Southern Air Restaurant in Wentzville.
Hosana A. Huck of Wentzville, once a cook at the Southern Air, filed the suit Tuesday in St. Charles County Circuit Court.
The suit alleges that the videotapes ''were created for the improper purpose of the entertainment and gratification''.
Whatever gets you through the night, Chuck.
It wasn't real bad until they realized that some of the girls were....................guess....................that's right..................underage. He never was convicted for this crime. The police raided his restaurant and seized dope, money and bathroom tapes. Chuck duck walked his way out of doing hard time by pleading to a lesser charge of Marijuana possession. He was convicted and sentenced to 6 months probation and ordered to donate $5000.00 to a local hospital. He sold the restaurant shortly after and has stayed out of trouble since.

I know you have heard this story right? His third wife was 13!!!! He was 22.
I know you have heard this story right? His third wife was 13!!!! He was 22.
Did you catch it that time? 13. Oh yeah, she was his cousin. HIS 13 YEAR OLD COUSIN. Lewis did not walk away unscathed. He lost everything, everything but his god given talent. He made a comeback in the mid 60's, but never recaptured his big time fame of the 1950's.
Oh, but the train wreck doesn't start or stop there. Not even close.

Baby let me be,
Your lovin teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck,
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.
He just couldn't keep Priscilla Beaulieu out of his mind, could he? They met when he was 24 and stationed in Germany during his two year enlistment in the US Army. She was 14...
They became close and spent a lot of "time" together. They actually dated for 7-1/2 years before finally making it official with wedding bells.
Elvis knew that his interest in Priscilla would raise a few eyebrows, but he was able to put good boy spin on his image by "proudly serving his country". The King and his manager, Colonial Tom Parker did some fancy PR to keep his image squeaky clean.
Just so we understand what we are talking about here. Let's say that today, one of the biggest Pop Stars in the world is dating a 14 year old.
- Would it be OK if Katy Perry was teenage dreaming about a 14 YO boy?
- Would it be cool if Lil Wayne's new shawrty was a 14 YO?
- Would no one question Clay Aiken if he couldn't take his eyes off of a14 YO play date?
Truth: we would skewer any of them, and have them flogged. Rightfully so I might add. Little Priscilla should have been passing notes in the hall, not dating the King.

She's just 16 years old, leave her alone, they say....
Wait, what did he say?

Hey, Hey What can I do?
I got a woman, wanna bawl all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won't be true
Lori Maddox was 14 in 1972 when she began her affair with Jimmy Page. Jimmy was 28 (twice her age).
This story is well documented, but it is still creepy. Lori is rumored to have lost her virginity to David and Angie Bowie the year before her hook-up with Jimmy. Both of these stories have helped excel Lori to a legendary groupie, which is something that I can't believe is respected outside the "groupie" circle.
Regardless, there are infamous stories about how she courted, screwed and was eventually dumped by Mr Page. I would tell the whole story but that path has been walked and well trodden. Just check the link for a pretty well written blog on their relationship, or just read Hammer of the Gods, which is required reading in my School of Rock:
I remember hearing that Jimmy actually took custody of Lori at one point. I now know that was bad info, as that little piece of creepy history actually belongs to the next 2 pervs in my blog, The Nuge and Steven Tyler.....

She lookin' so clean, especi'lly down in between; what I like
Secondly, when a 29+ year old man falls for an underage 17 year old teenager, what else should he do besides take custody of her? That is what happened in 1978, and you just can't make this stuff up. Pele Massa was too young to marry Sweaty Uncle Teddy , so he became her legal guardian instead. Smooshing with a child in your care, that's the righteous thing to do... NOT. She must have had some rocking birth parents. Maybe he bought them a Maserati.....Maserati
The following is a fictional conversation at Pele's High School reunion:
Manuel: Hey Pele, good to see you.
Pele: OMG! Good to see you too Manuel. It has been years! What have you been up to since School?
Manuel: The usual, work, kids, bills, and the house payment. I went to College and got a degree in finance, so that is working out well. And how have you been?
Pele: Really good. I am working at I-Hop.
Manuel: Hey, remember that time you dumped me for Ted Nugent and he took custody of you and you left to be with him?
Pele: Yeah, I remember.
Manuel: I've always wondered, had you broken up, would Ted have to pay spousal support or child support?
Pele: Asshole.
It probably not really Pele's fault, as Ted had a rep for liking the young ladies back in the day. Courtney Love claims to have given Ted some Clinton/Monica lovin when she was 12. That type of behavior doesn't sound very conservative to me...... I will leave it at that.

This one ends badly (go figure). Again a rock star takes custody of a minor. This time it was a 27 Year old Steven Tyler and his then 16 year old GF Julia Holcomb.
According to Julia, she was coming from a broken home, and her friend turned her onto hanging out backstage at concerts. Yadda Yadda Yadda, she met Steven, did the do, moved in with him, became his ward and lived with him for 3 years.
Now when Steven took Julia as his"ward", it put her on a very slippery slope. She was now 16 and the legal ward of Steven Tyler. What was she supposed to do? She did everything she could to make a go of it, but Marriage was not in the cards and the relationship dissolved after an apartment fire which hospitalized her, somehow led to the abortion or their child. This was at a time of heavy drug use by the Aerosmith camp. Steven claims it was a low point in his life that sent him spiraling downward further. Not too low though, because at the time, Steven was already involved with Bebe Buel, the mother of his daughter, Liv.
Julia has recently come out as an Anti-Abortionist, due to her experience with Steven. Below is a link to the Lifesitenews article in which Julia tells her story:
I feel like I need a shower after that, but it gets worse. Ladies and Gentlemen: The scum of the earth: Bill Wyman...

Mandy Smith has admitted to dating Bill Wyman when she was only 13! He was 47.
Dude, he was 47... She was 13. There is nothing funny about that at all. That dude should still be in Jail. In his defense, he waited to start a physical relationship until she was 14 (aww... thanks Bill, you nasty dickweed). This all started in 1983.
They eventually got married (how fricken nice of him) in 1989 and divorced in 1991. Does that mean that he saved face or something? I don't even think so.
She went on to have a few UK hits and some modeling career of some sort, and now, she has found faith and says publicly that age of consent should be 18.... Wow.
I really don't want to write another word about this, but there are sources that have swam in that pool and written extensively. I found a fellow blogger that gave Mandy's autobiography a nice write-up, and dives into her story further.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This started out light hearted and ended pretty bad. I really had not heard the Bill Wyman thing until I started researching this blog. Blah.....
Honorable mention as follows:
- The girl who claimed to be preggers with Justin Beiber's baby.
I am sure I am missing several clowns. Feel free to post.
Peace out.... White and Nerdy.....
Hey, thanks for the shoutout! (I'm the one who wrote the Mandy Smith/Bill Wyman post you cited.) Just discovered your blog and I'm liking your musings on rock stuff. Hope you keep it going! Good blogs are hard to find.
