Is this true?????

I found this on http://www.hissandpop.com/celebrities/n/stevienicks/

Biography
Singer Stevie Nicks was born in Phoenix, Arizona on May 26th 1948. She met Lindsay Buckingham and the two released an album under the name Buckingham-Nicks. It flopped. In 1973 they were asked to join Fleetwood Mac by Mick Fleetwood. The Pokémon character Jynx was modeled after Stevie Nicks.

(and they spelled Lindsey wrong)

Yeah is taht true? Cause if it is, it's kinda messed up...

I've never heard that before. Kind of crazy. I've never really been into pokemon though, so I wouldn't know!

I read that on imdb.com and I also looked at my pokemon card and I thought it was kinda funny. I doubt if it's true, but who knows!

i did hear something which, at the time, seemed fairly concrete concerning this stevie/jynx thing.... i can't remember where it was or what it was... but it seemed to indicate that jynx really was modeled after her.... if that makes any sense at all. for the last 2 years or so i have been going around believing it.

edit: actually now i remember- i had heard it was modeled after her and told a friend about it- i then went to several comic book/ collector shops looking for a jynx action figure to show my friend... i got to chatting with the comic store guy about it and he told me that it really was modeled after her... and i figure those guys know their anime/ role playing/ comic crap... so i believed him

poor Stevie, it at least could have been some other anime, but pokemon???? *shudders*

Jessica Leigh · #9 02-14-2005, 06:14 AM

i don't remember exactly what they are- but jynx's powers are also very stevie-like... i think one of them had to do with twirling... oh and jynx's magic power is that she's psychic... can't remember- my little brother doesn't talk about them anymore - anyone know anything about pokemon powers?

That is too funny. I love it! Stevie's inspiration lives on...

Oh my. That? Is a bit frightening

saraforscarlett · #13 02-14-2005, 11:58 AM

Haha! Not very flattering for Stevie, perhaps.

anime (Let's say the anime I watch, Excluding Inu Yasha, is mostly "R" rated...Kinda "X Files meets Buffy" w/some nudity & foul language) I have never heard that Jynx was modeled after Tango/OSOTM era Stevie...But it may be possible since the Japanese have long based characters after certain American "Icons", So who knows

Love the Pokemon card though, It does have a certain Stevie-ness to it

Here's a link to a detailed description of Jynx (Sound even more like a Stevie-based character to me after reading it):
