Nobody's fault, but her own...

Poor Marianne. .

holly shite!

Please tell me this is a joke...no way that's her. Almost as frightning as the current pic of Grace Slick.

isn;t Grace about 75 or so now..?

dont act as if looking like a bloated monster is a natual part of growing older. Perhaps for you, but not all.

There are plenty of those in thier 60s who dont look like Mick Taylor after a particularly rough bender.

in todays world it is actually...

must be the smoking? A real shame...she was such a beauty.

She is taking on the old Mick Talyor look. Nice observation.

How is one supposed to look at that age?

well how about "not obese" to start?

You dont see Charlie Watts looking sloppy. He looks as great as ever.

I saw Michelle Phillips in L.A. a couple years back. She looks fantastic.

She looks like crap.

tour hair !

Tour belly ?

Ahh leave her alone.

Jane Asher looks fantastic nowadays (and she's kept her mouth shut about the Paul years, which I think is pretty classy).

Before this goes too far, god bless Marianne Faithful. I hope there's some happiness in her life.

If you look at the photos, you can see she is still a beautiful woman, not age-ravaged at all, unlike Anita, Mick or Keith. She just needs to take off some weight.

And as I said, she may be on some medication like cortico-steroids, which make people blow up like a balloon.

Yes, she reminds me very much of someone I know who has suddenly gained a lot of weight due to steroids.

Exactly. And worst of all ... some people actually do that.

I personally find it always a bit a sign of an empty life (no offence intended just my feel) that many people seem to think that they need drink or drugs to have fun.

No offence taken, because I don't think that way. I just like to smoke and drink AND have fun.

It's all bullshit talk, I know it. But it's tempting to comment.

The smoking is probably an addiction (a bad one, but too difficult at that age to beat). The weight and bloated face are perhaps not to prevent. But the ugly hair(-cut and -colour), the dreadful glasses, the repulsing nail polish, the clothing - all those things can be changed. She also has an ugly tattoo on her hand - a matter of bad taste too.

She's become sloppy and has lost her class at the age of 66 (though I never found her a real beauty). That's the most appalling thing.

You know all this on the basis of one picture? Maybe she was just running out for a quick errand and the photographer caught her looking her worst. I can't imagine how it must be to always have to be "on", looking your best, even when you just want to pick up a cup of coffee. I know it's the price of fame, but it has to suck. I have an Aunt who was an entertainer for many years, she did cruise ships and quit, partly because she always had to look good, in full makeup and nice clothes whenever she stepped out of her cabin.

No, no and no again. I didn't suggest that she has to be tiptop every time she steps out. And I'm not fond of makeup either. But the things I mentioned can be prevented at any time: such hair (that tasteless colour!), those glasses, that nail polish. Would make quite a difference, and no effort at all.

Is thaT really her? That is extreme.
Why blame all this on smoking, is what I don't get.

She looks good for 68

I have seen her on tour regularly since 1996. She was radiant, witty, in great shape and gave some of her best performances up to and including 2002. The 2002 tour was perhaps her best ever. She started her next tour in 2004. Right from the start of the tour in Island she was in bad shape, ill and exhausted, but her vulture-like "manager" Francois Ravard (whose only source of income she is) let her continue. She then suffered what apparently was a minor heart attack and/or a case of nervous exhaustion a few weeks later before her show in Milan. There has been a steady decline since then. In 2006 she revealed in an interview that she has Hepatitis B. I think decades of overindulgence are finally taking their toll. Coupled with a constant need for cash and a manager willing to play along, it let her to where she is now. It's painful to see.
