Is it true about SN coke bottom?
 

I have to ask, i just have to!

A few weeks ago i had a computer guy notice my background image as Stevie Nicks.. naturally ...lol, and he said that "apparently" she used to have an employee whose job was to blow cocaine up her.. um... bottom. Now of course i denied that she ever did, but i just read on a different and entertaining stevie site a few articles that also mentioned the same thing...

Please tell me its not true!

No, it's not.

Ooh jake i like your answer!!!! :nod:

the address is:

http://home.tiscali.nl/thenicksfiles/ - In the "file index" then down the bottom - mind the pun, in the drugs section. Its actually got some interesting articles

It was a rumour that had no validity nor any basis for truth back in the day.

In '94 she said, if I remember: "Eight years sober & the rumors still get passed around." :rolleyes:

I remember that quote...can't remember which article and interview it came from off hand.

I think it's the one that has a photo of her looking like a blond haired, purple skinned Olive Oyle balancing on one foot and holding a parasol.

I get a laugh out of the fact that people are willing to believe that the same woman who was mortified about being nude on the 'Buckingham Nicks' cover, would let a roadie blow cocaine up her derriere. :rolleyes:
But it seems that some people are so desperate to spread their negativity and malice, that they'll embrace anything they think validates their view.

Sorry for the cliché, but "what's the world coming to?"


(By the way, Jayne... I don't want you to think I'm blasting you for asking about the rumour. I re-read my reply, and realized it may have come off that way.)

hope you weren't blasting me either, Johnny... :angel:

I haven't found any article that actually substantiates that rumour.

i don't want to be flamed for this but people will do whatever it takes to get high when they are addicts. i'm not saying one thing or another. let's just say that if stevie admitted to it, i wouldn't be shocked. there have been people in my life that have done a 180 on me - things that i thought they would never EVER do....have done.

it's one thing to be a bit prudish about showing some skin, but it's completely different when you need to get your fix cause otherwise you feel like you're going to die if you don't.

i do lean more towards not believing the rumours, but, like i said, if they were true i wouldn't be surprised....nor would i think any less of her.

I still don't buy it. I chalk that rumor up to urban legend. That's all it is folks.

I've heard this rumor over and over and over and over, and it never fails to make me break into a fit of laughter.

The thing everyone who gets so tickled by this RUMOR needs to realize is that "booty bumps" are not a rare occurrence. LOTS of people have done it, like to do it, and will probably do it again. Out of the millions and millions and millions of people in the '70s who were on the cocaine-train, do you think that Stevie was the only person to ever have cocaine blown up her butt? Give me a break.

Do a Net search for Studio 54 and read about all the stuff that used to go on in the balcony there. Believe me, cocaine was one of the more normal things people used to stick or have shoved up their ass (gay and straight alike). Or look for an article about Led Zeppelin where Robert Plant talks about partying backstage with groupies, doing booty bumps on them, and then violating their backsides with a plaster cast of Jimi Hendrix's penis that had been made by the famous groupie that used to make molds of all the big rock stars' wangs (I think she was called the Plaster Caster or something like that...). Why is their depravity celebrated, but Stevie's is considered sad and pathetic and should be the subject of ridicule?

I've never understood why this story seems to stick to Stevie. It certainly wasn't because she lived a goody-goody lifestyle. She was the object of lust for countless men (and women!) in the '70s. EVERYONE knew she wasn't a virgin and that she liked to party. Perhaps she should have just embraced the rumor, and said "I sure did have a roadie blow cocaine up my ass! It was one of the best highs I've ever experienced!!!!" Not that she ever would have, of course.

Yes, she was an addict, but so were millions of others. And because she was an addict, she had to have her fix, just like everyone. Cocaine is PHYSICALLY addictive. You have no choice but to do it until you can get MEDICAL help to overcome it. That said, if your nose doesn't work, what other choice do you have? Freebasing or intravenous injections are basically your only other options, unless you want to make a solution and drip it into your eyeballs. I'd take booty bumps any day over those.

I'm not trying to blast anyone -- but the next time someone asks you about this, or mentions it "in passing" to try to tarnish the rep of a woman who's spent her life making people happy and being charitable with all the fortunes her talent has afforded her, just remember what I've said and tell them to get a freakin' life and start worrying about the world's REAL problems. :wavey:

If people will believe that Lara FB will bleach hers, then there isn't much for folks to doubt any longer.

It wasn't directed at any one person in particular... just an observation about a rather disturbing character trait shared by a lot of people in this world.

You are right... it seems most addicts will do just about anything to get their fix. Although most people still have lines they wouldn't dream of crossing.

As far as Stevie's own desire for a fix in that time-period, she told Cynthia McFadden... in what's probably been her most honest interview to date, regarding the cocaine addiction... that after the doctor told her about the hole in her sinuses, and that continuing to use cocaine would kill her, she still used it throughout the 'Rock A Little' tour. Snorting just enough to get her fix, and hoping it would never prove to be a fatal amount.
This despite her doctor's warning.

I didn't get the impression that Stevie looked for alternate ways of getting high... she in fact continued to engage in the behaviour that she knew full well might kill her.
