Here we go again....LEAVE MY GIRL ALONE!

Let's see how good all of you guys memories are at 62 and she's got more than the average person to remember. And so what if she lies sometimes and knows it? She's Stevie, she gets to do that.

That said, I think it would be awfully hard to forget that you smoked for nine years!

On the Unleashed tour I think one of those teleprompter directives were as literal as "Go To Tent" - meaning to go to her little change area behind Mick.

I think she is trying to avoid admitting she has had any work done. Nobody who puts their body through the kind of abuse she has can end up 63 year old woman without one line on her face.

I could tell she was dodging that question when Oprah asked.

Well, she's certainly had GOOD work done, and at the right time, too, because her aging does seem so gradual and graceful.

However, I have to agree that unless Stevie really is a witch or just defies mother nature or something... it's absolutely unheard of for someone with nearly 2 decades of excessive drug use under their belts to look so naturally spectacular at her age.

But then sometimes I think that it's all just lighting and make-up and that she really hasn't had much done. Her eyes are mainly what makes me think that but who knows.

That "sly grin" she made when she said she never smoked is very telling.

What she is inferring is that, while she was never a cigarette smoker (although she went through a brief period with that), she indulges in pot.

Not surprising. Stevie and Lindsey are essentially rich hippies from the sixties.

My dream is to smoke pot with Stevie, Lindsey, Woody Harelson, Willy Nelson, Snoop Dog, and ???...all gathered together. Good times!

"Nicks was able to improve her vocal range by kicking a three-pack-a-day cigarette habit in 1998. 'I opened my eyes and my ears to all the miseries of smoking. I read magazine articles and if a TV commercial about cancer came on, I turned it up in surround sound. The night before I quit, I literally made myself sick. I drank a bottle of brandy and I smoked two cartons of cigarettes. The next morning when I woke up feeling terrible, I put on the [nicotine] patch. I haven't smoked since'", Cleveland (OH) Plain Dealer, Jul. 15, '01

what the hell how does someone smoke two cartons of cigarettes in a day?

That's Stevie-speak. She's being typically over dramatic and over-stated.

I remember seeing a photo of her smoking from her Behind The Music. Hilarious.

I think you nailed it. There's a reason she loves Oscar Wilde so much. He was a crafter of aphorisms that sometimes skirt the edges of logic or reason, but strike a larger truth or just make you smile for their wit. Ditto Stevie. But it would indeed be simply delicious if this one were true.
