The irony is that this band smirks and makes fun of Stevie Nicks behind her back because they believe her to be shallow and talentless. Members of Fleetwood Mac are bitter because they consider themselves solid talented musicians, and the ditzy blonde with the tambourine has ALWAYS stolen the show just by twirling. None of their artistic solo projects have come close to nutty Stevie's success. They only way they can process this is by lampooning her behind her back--it's a running joke with these toxic people. It's all evidenced in this amateur shot video from Music Cares 2018, just fast forward to the 4:25 mark.

They are laughing at Stevie's long winded speech, Christine begins to sarcastically check her watch, Lindsey and Chris share insults, Lindsey begins making hand gestures, and then Mick and Christine begin to WALTZ. Stevie may be a self indulgent mess, but the only assholes here are Christine, Mick, and Lindsey. Then, they turn around and FIRE Lindsey because of HIS behavior. Seriously? What a joke. |
and as someone pointed out, since they were behind her, how would she have known what they were doing? Her minions would have had to run and tell her afterwards. Who else in this band surrounds themselves with minders, babysitters, and lackeys who are paid to protect the precious flower from anyone including her own bandmates getting near her and who report back to her like her own personal CIA. that's crazy, fantasyland rock star living.
