And despite the hard living, she looks nothing like some other rickety relics of rock's golden age. She attributes this to one of the better decisions she made in her drama-fueled life: "Smoking is what destroys your skin. I didn't smoke," she says, flashing a sly grin. "I did everything else."
I'm in love with this quote. If only it were true

"I watch interviews from the early years of Fleetwood Mac and I'm so, like, out there," she says. "I think, 'God, could you have just laid off the blow for an hour? Because this is not attractive. You sound like an idiot.'"

Ha! Check out the below link. Anyone ever seen this before? It lists references and links to articles and interviews where she says that she used to smoke. We all knew that she did, but it's fascinating to see all of these examples that she 100% contradicts herself in the Harper's interview:

Oh, woman. Good thing our love for you transcends your (deliberate or not!) memory lapses!

This woman so wants to rewrite history...or perhaps she really is batty from all the drug abuse nonetheless Stevie must be counting on her fans having really short memories And after the slew of interviews over the last decade until now, the contradictions and spinning of facts. I'm starting to think after all, maybe I don't want Stevie to write an autobiography. Someone with serious writing cred needs to step up and write a true accounting of Stevie's life. I suspect neither will happen in Stevie's lifetime

Exaggerating again..."

what the hell? Does she think her fans don't know about her smoking? Hell, she helped ME stop smoking. I recall an interview where she said she stopped by thinking everytime she had a cigarette a doctor told her she would get cancer. Wonder where THAT interview is!!!

I punched in 'Stevie Nicks Kools Menthols' to Google..I always remembered her brand
How about that, we landed on the same page at the same time on different sides of the world googling the same thing,crazy! haha
As for the article..I dislike her combing through the same over & over..FM history,cocaine etc etc. I'm disappointed that she has to exaggerate so much too..does she think the truth isn't entertaining enough for readers or something? tsk tsk

God bless Stevie's revisionism. There are more pics I can't currently find of her smoking, too.

Her lack of consistency is one of the reasons I adore her. We all know she's bull****ting, but she does it with such a conviction. It's as though she thinks if she says it often enough, it'll turn out to be true
