The Who's Pete Townshend has revealed that Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger is the only man he's "seriously wanted to f^$k".
In an excerpt from his forthcoming autobiography Who I Am, the legendary guitarist admitted lusting after his fellow rocker and also refuted stingy allegations made by the likes of Stones' guitarist Keith Richards about the size of the singer's manhood.
Townshend, who has been writing the memoir for 15 years, says:
Mick is the only man I've ever seriously wanted to f*^k.He also described Jagger's penis as "long and plump" and insisted the singer was "very well endowed", echoing comments he had made about the frontman's member being "huge and extremely tasty". His description, however contradicts less complimentary claims made by Richards in his million-selling autobiography Life which reportedly led to a rift between the pair.
Who I Am will be published on October 11 by Harper Collins. The book will share details of Townshend's "incredible life and elaborates on the turbulences of time spent as one of the world’s most respected musicians – being in one of rock’s greatest ever bands, and wanting to give it all up".
It was during the writing of the book in 2003 that Townshend was cautioned by police for accessing child pornography on the internet. When questioned by police about the material he cited researching for the book as his reason for doing so.
He said at the time: "I believe I was sexually abused between the age of five and six and a half when in the care of my maternal grandmother who was mentally ill at the time. Some of the things I have seen on the internet have informed my book."
He added: "If I have any compulsions in this area, they are to face what is happening to young children in the world today and to try to deal openly with my anger and vengeance toward the mentally ill people who find paedophilic pornography attractive."

This is only my opinion.......not to be agist, but when you're young there is way more leeway in what you say.
Pete's sounding like a creepy old man.

I agree, but I don't think it has to do with him being old, he just sounds like a pervert when he says things like that.

Actually it seems like a cheap gimmick to increase sales of his upcoming book... which is not too classy.... so this will now be 2 books that sell extra copies based on talking about Jagger's...

He also described Jagger's penis as "long and plump" and insisted the singer was "very well endowed"... Didn't Keith describe it differently ?

Didn't Pete come out of the closet years ago? Why was Mick the only one he'd like to fvck then?

FOr myself, I'm curious to see how Pete deals with the years directly following Moon's death. Pete was very heavy into hard drugs and alcohol and has admitted he barely survived the period from 1979-82.
Other interesting things will be to see how he describes his fellow bandmates. Will it be flattering or flippant?
