The Keef: Post scriptum (the ashes statement)

7 aprilie 2007
dezmintirea finala

6.04.07 Richards Issues Ashes Statement

Rolling Stone Keith Richards has issued a statement denying he snorted his father's ashes - in a bid to end the worldwide media frenzy over his controversial confession. The guitarist was stunned when what he claims was a joke about mixing the ashes of his dead dad Bert with cocaine and then snorting them, made headlines around the world. His manager Jane Rose on Wednesday insisted the comment - made during an interview with British music magazine NME - was a joke. And now hard-living Richards himself says in a statement, "I wouldn't take cocaine at this point in my life unless I wished to commit suicide. The truth of the matter is that I planted a sturdy English Oak. I took the lid off the box of ashes and he (Bert) is now growing oak trees and would love me for it!"


the ashes statement, curat titlu de roman de Ludlum...

dar Disney s-a fript si sufla si-n iaurt (v. articolul complet in postul anterior)

Disney PR Guys Won't Look to Richards to Promote New 'Pirates'

Reports on Wednesday that The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards had told a British music tabloid that he had snorted a mixture of cocaine and the ashes of his cremated father have flummoxed Disney publicists as they prepare to roll out Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, in which Richards appears in a cameo as Johnny Depp's father. Dennis Rice, Disney's senior vice president for publicity, told today's (Thursday) Los Angeles Times that when he saw the report, his first reaction was, "How are we going to spin this?" Late in the day, the singer said through a spokesman that he was only joking. But his explanation has apparently not been good enough for Disney. "Keith won't be doing a lot of publicity for this movie," Rice told the Times.


like as if Keef would've done it....

the keith ultimatum

6 aprilie 2007
am vrut să scriu The Revenge of Disney, sau piraţii pe brink, care scenă oricum apare în Return of the Jedi...pe nava lui Jabba...enfin...

după ce vestea că l-a prizat pe taică-su a făcut ocolul lumii (acum că vin Stones la noi, am văzut că şi tabloide precum Libertatea, etc au pus pe prima pagină ştirea), deci the Keef e in....Disney s-a cam speriat..după cum scrie în articolul din LA Times

Snorting remark by Keith Richards doesn't sit well with Disney

He has a cameo in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End,' but he 'won't be doing a lot of publicity for this movie.'




ca şi cum Keith cu asta se ocupă...promovare de happy meal vizual, yep, dar se duce dracu' franciza dacă se află că modelul pentru Jack Sparrow, cel mai îndrăgit pirat PG 13, family friendly e un soi de canibal...eu mă număr printre cei ultraminoritari pentru care seria cu piraţii şi Caraibe au vreun interes din cauza lui Keef the human riff, cunoscut azi ca the "infamous snorting patricide." Sigur Denis Leary
şi-a aprins o ţigară şi rîde în gura mare...



mi-aduce aminte de bancul cu vampirul la morgă, disperat, fomist.

-n-aveţi un cadavru proaspăt, ceva ?

-nimic.

-Atunci, măcar nişte cenuşe, să-mi fac un expresso.



talk about the long good friday...

RIP Bob Clark (si fiul)

5 aprilie 2007
Bob Clark a făcut filmul original Black Christmas în 1974. După care s-a făcut remake acum. A făcut Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (1973), după care trebuie să se facă remake, pe care el urma să-l regizeze. (Pe care l-am produs eu de curînd. Şi A.C. a produs Black Christmas. Adică am făcut rost de ele pe dvd, să nu se înţeleagă altceva). Dar nu l-am omorît noi. Ci un şofer beat ,care n-avea permis şi care a intrat în maşina lui Clark, care conducea liniştit. Clark, 67 de ani şi în full comeback (cel puţin financiar), si fiul sau de 22 de ani, Ariel, muzician, au fost ucişi. Casualties of DD (drunk driving ), de fapt DDWAL (drunk driving without a licence). The Big Wednsday, indeed. Şi Black Easter.

Bob Clark nu era cunoscut doar pentru două filme cult horror (plus zombieul care vine din Vietnam-Dead of Night, 1974), ci pentru comedii (Porky's I şi II, Loose Cannons), filme de familie (A Christmas Story, 1983), şi Rhinestone 1984), o ciudăţenie de film cu muşchi (Sly Stallone) şi sîni (Dolly Parton). Şi un Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack Spintecătorul (Murder By Decree, 1979), cu Christopher Plummer-Sherlock si James Mason-Watson.

RIP.

The Keith Strikes Back

5 aprilie 2007
auzi nene ce belea, nici nu se terminară biletele la evenimentul mileniului, adică Rolling Stones în România (sau cum scria la Diverta, bilete la Rollin Stones), Keith cică dezminte ştirea că ar fi fumat cenuşa lui tăică-su. Că, cică a fi fost o glumă. Nu zice el direct, ci managerul.

după imdb news de azi...

Richards: "Snorting My Dad Was a Joke"

Rolling Stones rocker Keith Richards insists he never snorted his father's ashes - his recent comments were made in "jest." The Gimme Shelter guitarist can't believe people took him seriously after he told British music magazine Nme he once snorted his dad Bert's ashes mixed with cocaine. He said, "He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared. It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive." However, Richard's manager Jane Rose tells MTV.com that the hellraiser's comments were "said in jest. Can't believe anyone took (it) seriously."


in jest, adică la bâză, la shto....io l-am crezut de prima oară, şi din cocotier cînd a căzut era luat de ceva, Keef nene mai bagă...he did not inhale, he snorted the world...glumă, neglumă dar glumă bună şi prea potrivită cu gluma lui Denis Leary din 1992 (v. previous post). Faptul că însă acuma zice că a glumeat îl facă să nu mai fie the coolest r&R star in the world..nu-i frumos să retractezi, să vedem ce mai zice mîine.....
