Just because some 26 year olds don't know who a celebrity is does not diminish their clout in the industry. Annette Benning is most definately an A-list celebrity and Im sure a lot of 26 year olds don't know who she is. Same goes for celebrities like Glenn Close, Faye Dunaway and others. They are poets, and yet they are priests of nothing, but they are legends.

Im sure P. Didddy or whatever he calls himself now, would rather have Stevie or any of the above mentioned figures at his party than say Simon from American Idol whom almost every 26 yo with a television knows.

She was actually driving this or was she being driven in it? I can't picture Stevie behind the wheel of one of those things.

Now that I think about it, Chris was driving...

Quote from La Nicks, Rolling Stone 1999/2000:
"GOALS FOR THE NEW CENTURY: I'd like to be able to beam places. First thing first, though: my driver's license ran out in 1978, and I never got it renewed, because I never went anywhere alone. We got famous so fast, I just didn't get in a car and go to the market anymore. I miss driving around and listening to music, but now I have to take the test over, Maybe that should be my New Years resolution."


I think the only place La Nicks drives is.....
If it's me that's driving you to this madness
Then there's one thing that I'd like to say
Take a look at your life and your lovers
Nothing ever changes

Or how about in a little Cooper Mini with racing stripes?

I once had a dream that Stevie was consulting me on what type of SUV to buy. As if I'm an expert or something. I think it was because I saw a picture of a Jeep Cherokee she once owned.

Yeah I FORGOT about this!

GOD i love that! It's SO Nicksian! LOL!

But yes, I agree - perhaps FIRST she should get the driver's license back,

and THEN work on beaming places!

Yeah, I understand the concept, but in my opinion, from things she's

said recently in interviews etc. lately, I think she probably would be

a very careful driver these days. But yeah, by "SUV" I meant

something like a Lincoln Navigator, or that kinda thing.

Can you imagine getting into a fender-bender with "La Nicks?"

And her standing with her arms crossed, tapping her foot, while you

give her your insurance information? Then getting on the cell phone

to call Her People!? YIPES!

I always thought that was a weird thing to say, but SO Stevie! Wouldn't be suprised if that makes it onto an album as a lyric.
Here's a good reason why we don't see paparazzi snaps of Stevie in everyday life shopping or going to Starbucks or going to the spa, etc. Stevie's gone on the record in a zillion interviews that she sleeps late, not waking up until the late afternoon and stays up all night until past dawn. So being a 'nightbird', there's probably less of a chance of catching her doing daytime things. Her assistants can do that stuff for her. I think she's of a different generation anyway. Maybe the Lindsey Lohans, Paris Hiltons, and Olsen Twins of the world today want to be independent and drive their own cars and go buy their own stuff and act like everyone else except be really rich and famous- but I think Stevie is cut from more of the 70's cloth where rock star's bought castles and lived like kings and had entourages that did everything for you. Somehow I don't see Robert Plant or Mick Jagger going to Mcdonald's by themselves and buying a 'Big Mac'. Same goes for Stevie, she's just 'better' than that. I also think she understands the Dietrich/Garbo/Monroe/Kelly glamour mystique quite well, and for that reason is rarely caught in public not looking or behaving like a 'star'.

Great explanation- and I agree

All my friends know who she is when I mention her and Im 16. Shes legendary.

This reminds me of this story from the Keith Olsen Q&A...it had me laughing for three days. I can sooooo picture it.

"First of all, thank you for taking the time to do this. Ok, what is your best memory and one of your funniest memories of working with Stevie and Lindsey? (Erin, Michigan, USA)


The best memory was when Stevie and Lindsey lived with me in my little Coldwater Cyn house in LA.... I was going to NYC to mix a live concert in Central Park for the James Gang.... Stevie and Lindsey's car had blown its transmission... so I lent them my car.... only if they would drive me to where the Limo was picking up the band at 5:00am .... and when I returned 3 days later pick me back up.... You have to imagine the next part... Stevie in a long heavy cotton robe... trying to drive a stick shift car... where the end of the robe got caught up in the pedals.... As she drove away (after dropping me off) the lead singer for the James Gang said " Keith, you'll never see that car again.." Well I said that he was crazy-- she only had to go 1.5 miles.....
I flew to NYC and went directly to Central Park.... got to the hotel at around 11:00pm EST... had a message that said call home ASAP!

I called ... Lindsey got on the phone... and told me everyone was OK, but the car was in my neighbors bedroom....... Stevie had parked the car, pulled on the brake...(1 Click), and went back to bed... the car rolled down the hill, flipped end over end 3 times and was hurled through the air and into the bedroom of the house below me..... Come to think about it... I think Stevie still owes me for that car.... and then with 30 years of interest ...... "

Oh my! Only Stevie could park a car in the next door neighbor's bedroom!

That has been my favorite Stevie story since I read it back when Keith answered his questions! It always gives me a laugh. I think the best and cutest part of the entire thing is how Stevie let (or made) Lindsey tell Keith what happened.
