Ronnie Spector annoyed with Keith.

Hope I'm not repeating a known story here.Spotted it on Yahoo News.............................Spector's rage over Richards book
Sixties singer Ronnie Spector was furious when she read Keith Richards' tell-all book - because she mistakenly thought his tales of druggy excesses with Ronnie Wood referred to her.
The Ronettes star was close friends with the Rolling Stones wildman in the band's heyday, but is adamant she "never, ever" took narcotics when partying with him.

And she was "angry" when she leafed through his recent memoirs Life and saw his anecdotes about drug-taking with "Ronnie" - until she realised he was referring to his bandmate Wood.

Spector tells Vanity Fair, "It was never like that with Keith and me. It was always very innocent. It wasn't all about 'let's get in the bed' with him. I never had sex with him or anything like that... We may have kissed, I don't remember. It was 40 years ago.

"I was skimming through it the other day, and he's talking about Ronnie, and I think, 'Oh, he must mean me. I'll read this.' And then he writes, 'We went in the bathroom and did drugs.' I was like, 'Keith! I never did drugs! What are you saying?'

"I was so angry with him. I never, ever did drugs with him. In fact, I used to yell at Keith. I'd say, 'You can do a little marijuana but don't go any further than that.' So I'm reading this and I'm just fuming. I'm ready to call him and really cuss him out, but then I read a little more and it turns out he was actually talking about Ronnie Wood."

she can't be serious..i hope. i wonder if she even knew Ronnie Wood was a Rolling Stone before this book. winking smiley

I know they (Keith & R Spector) have a bit of history...but come on...Even Mick Taylor knew that
most of the "Mick" references in the book were about Jagger. winking smiley


IORR............but I like it!

Well, Keith remembers quite differently those scenes...winking smiley

Ronnie Spec should learn to read a book the "normal" way, from beginning to end. Looking through a book to see what has been said about "me" isn't reading it and when you get caught bitching about something that isn't there, you look to me like a narcissist fool.

Yeah, as 'rollmops' said. And then she had this urgent need to mention her moronic mistake to a journalist. Pretty funny, right?

"... and the award for the most pathetic attention seeking moment of the year goes to..."

Now, that's what makes me doubt this entire story. If she did skim the book looking for references for herself (and --let's be honest-- who wouldn't do that? BUT wouldn't you look in the INDEX, rather then turning every page of the book looking for your name?) she would have seen the references to her and Keith sleeping together at her mother's apartment.

Keith discusses her in some detail, something like [paraphrasing] What's better than waking up in the morning and having a smiling Ronnie Spector in your arms?

How could she have missed that and not be PO'd about that?

I think this story is fishy.

The real question remains: did he bang her or not? Not something you forget...
(just a little joke)

well, intelligence is not really the point of Ronnie Spector -
with that voice, that style and those survival skills the lady doesn't even have to make sense :E


>> How could she have missed that [or] not be PO'd about that? <<

... because she doesn't consider sex as reprehensible as drug use, for example
(yes, i see that she says they didn't have sex, but that doesn't mean the idea of it is required to p1ss her off)

Just like the Mars bar story.We will never get to know the truth.Probably the only ones who know are Mick,Keith,Marianne and a couple of coppers at the bust.Mind you,there are plenty of storys in Keiths' book that just a few people would know the real truth.Keith probably doesn't remember a lot of the details. winking smiley
