there's just one side to the story, and Christine basically told it - Stevie and Lindsey cannot be in the same room without arguments. that's all.

and so Stevie used her position of power to oust him. just like Lindsey said. and band just laid down and went with the company line. and now they are trying to justify it - Mick by lying about "the band" not being "happy" (who tf cares whether YOU are happy Mick?? ), and Christine by justifying that she went with it because oh so many people get "pleasure" from seeing the crippled band and apparently she gets pleasure from seeing reviewers bang on her signing while praising stevie's.

I thought in the 00's and 10's her teeth were okay but then in that doc last night her teeth looked really f*@#ing awful....huge gaps.

Could somebody in the know please enlighten me?

thank you
If it’s the bottom teeth that someone said are looking “gappy”, that’s common with a smoker. The tissue recedes as the bone recedes and your teeth look longer and have more space between. I haven’t seen the video, but my guess is that’s what happened to her bottom ones.
The top ones may have been redone by someone a little over zealous, or as per the Queens instructions. And that definitely can affect speech.

We knew it, so he probably knew already.

I just can’t see her talking to Chris when they aren’t working. Mick, but not Chris.

The hills in the sand were a beautiful touch though. The director should’ve kissed her for that idea.

Look, if you have to take sides, why not take the side of the person who sells the most tickets, rather than the side of the person who worked tirelessly to make your songs iconic. No brainer.

Yep... the very songs that everyone buying a ticket to a show is paying to hear. The songs they never would have known if not for your gorgeous production getting them on the radio. smh

Are you saying that Stevie would LIE???

Say it ain't so!!! She's DELUSIONAL. I wouldn't believe a word that comes out of her mouth. I truly believe that she believes her own lines of CRAP.

I have to confess I'm eager to hear her bunch of lies about Lindsey's firing, once this tour is over. Or if he ever decides to come clean.

Let's face it: this is more than just an old woman being delusional. And everyone around her know it, but they just go with the flow because she means money, and Lindsey doesn't.

Half of what Christine said are fabricated lies. She doesn't strike me as the kind of person who could be friends with Stevie. She can tolerate her, but friends? She's friends with Jenny Boyd, not Stevie.

But now they're all of a sudden "Sisters of the Moon"..... right….

Exactly. I've seen too much footage of her turning her head and rolling her eyes at the idiot. She knows $tevie's an idiot.

Agreed. And yet, I now find her just as gross as I do Stevie and Mick.

As much as it kills me to throw my life long heroine under the bus, I agree. She might be half a notch above them, but no more than that.

WHAT was all that BuckVie love? Just more CRAP? IF IF IF she cared for him the way it looked, SHE COULD HAVE STOPPED THE MOTHER F*CKING BUS, AND SAVED THE DAY.

But she folded like a cheap lawn chair.
