I seriously doubt that photo is from 1985. Stevie looked nothing like that in 1985. The article about the book found a random photo of her implying such but Stevie is old and klonopined in that photo. Its not even close. Magazines post all sort of photos of celebrities from all eras about their life. Red Rocks reshoot and Big Love hair came after Betty Ford.
Seriously half of all online magazines do the same thing. I could post all day similar news clips of photos that are not related to the issue reported on. I see it fooling the average fan but not the diehards on this board.

There are several clues from the photo that reveal its post 1985. Look at her dress. What is she promoting? Its the Big Love Dress that she wore in the 1987 video. 1986 was a hard year for year with a big tour party and she put on weight. Her face in 1985 was still thin. This interview is timestamped Aug 1985 which is when the Wham concert was. Look how thin her face was. She was not heavy and bloated and she was still doing those perms. The photo in the article is clearly post RAL tour. She is boated, she is wearing her new Big Love dress, and she looks so much older than this summer 1985 interview.

Now now, Macfan claims to know everything, and isn't going to have his Chiffon ripped off without a fight!

Let's just take a moment to calm down, admit that we're wrong, and Macfan is right.... ABOUT EVERYTHING!

No fight just a klonopin stare down. I am wrapped in chiffon and ready to go!

Its hard to be right on this board but someone has to do it

Come on now even the lamest chiffon head can see the truth.

Put on those Frankenbocks and let's rumble!!!

Unlike reverse cowgirl, I believe that position has already been filled.

I AM a lame Chiffonhead! I used to be a really good one. Up until that Other Side Of The Mirror TURD. Then $he lost me...

Team BuckVie all the way these days.

I had no idea I was entering a mine field. I just recall this pic is the one that accompanied the article about it that, in fact, we ledgies discussed at the time—however many moons ago that was.

But as to my acknowledging that I am wrong, well—unlike Lindsey I know I’m not “I Know I’m Not Wrong.”

No, no, you’re right. But glory never lasts forever!

That photo they stuck with the story is definitely one of Stevie with her Jose Eber hairstyle in late 1986 or 1987. Something about Eber, the stylist to the stars, was offputting. At Stevie’s Forum gig in July 1986, she and Claire Rothman set aside a chair smack down in front for Eber, who arrived late and left after “Beauty and the Beast.” I like to think he got sick of listening to Stevie bellow and preferred to have his hands in her hair.

There’s a couple of photos of Stevie with the Heartbreakers at Compton Terrace on July 30, 1985, along with the audio, to give y’all an idea of what she was up to visually at that time. I saw her in mid-September that year at Universal but have no pics of that night.

I could not agree with you more. I know nothing about hair or styling and good grief I was teenager in love with Stevie in the mid 80s. However even back then I hated that look on her. This is how you can date the photo. It was first seen at the Red Rocks re-shoots after she got out of rehab. She wore this look in the Big Love video and there is that youtube video of her with the famous stylist of the 80s where she is sporting this look again. Its 1987 mostly. Its puffy on top and like straight bangs on the side. I never liked it even today. I never liked Lindsey's hair in 1984, Chris's hair in Got A Hold On Me and Stevie Red Rocks/Tango Big Love video.
She lost that look thankfully for Seven Wonders. It was a brief look but I agree with you it was a horrible look on her. And correct, that is the timestamp on the photo.

Yep. It’s from February 28, 1987 specifically. She was at Elizabeth Taylor’s 55th birthday party, they had met at Betty Ford Clinic. There’s other pics from that night too if you google it.

Is this the KFC commercial she thought was a Prince video?

I think that's it. If you ever find Joe Walsh on Rockline in July 1990 a caller asks him about the Kentucky Fried Chicken incident. Joe went on to explain that him and Stevie were at a Prince world premier video party and a KFC commercial came on with cub scouts marching into the restaurant demanding chicken. Stevie thought it was the video and everyone including her could not stop laughing. I never found a cub scout version but this sports team is marching into the restaurant and it was released in 1984 so I would speculate that is it.
