THIS! Her cynical side is showing. I'm sorry for her fans but yes, she's in way worst than Stevie. And that's saying A LOT!

I don't even have the words for that Christine interview. Sounds like Stevie and Mick have gotten a hold of her ear. Or as freakin spineless as it is, she's doing exactly what she is told. Azof is looming over this band now...She's got to keep it civil until September. Surely a warning was given when Lindsey let it slip that she reached out to him...
So much of their behavior isn't new, it's trickled in at different points in time and true colors have been revealed before. This is just one really terrible culmination of all of it coming together at once and they really look like a group of rotten sh*ts at this point with no regard or respect.
It's so incredibly crushing to invest so much of your life to enjoying this band, the music they made together, and the overall belief that there were some deep waters that held them together, that at the end of the day they really cared about one another and VALUED all the the progress they made post 1997. To see it all crumble is heartbreaking.
Yes, we will always have the music. However it will be forever changed when so many can no longer respect those who made that music we all loved so much. A loss of perspective is an understatement. This is a group of folks in their 70s still pulling the same drug fueled irrationality of their youth. Egos, adoration, and money have replaced the booze, sex, and cocaine. As much of a gift Christine's return was, it ultimately upset the power equilibrium within the band in a way that we'll never fully understand.
We thought they came out the other side as better people, that turned out to be false for the majority of them.
Sad.

Christine ruined everything with her return. And yes, on the other end of this mess, there's us, the group of fans who no longer believe in them and are highly dissapointed and sad everything has come to an end this way.
