Say what?
When you think of The Beatles, I’m sure the first thought that doesn’t come to your mind is drugs. Am I close? Former Beatle Paul McCartney tells us otherwise.

In a new interview, McCartney says, “We were overdoing substances and really getting crazy, as we all were….falling asleep – the kinda thing when you can hardly get your head off the pillow. You go, ‘Woah, I’d better get my head off this pillow.’”
He said that their drug induced days inspired them to write “Let It Be.” McCartney explains, “I had a dream, where my mother, who …read more

The remaining members of Led Zeppelin have already decided to tour next year without Robert Plant. Much to my dismay, they are auditioning replacements for Plant and are going to name their band something else.
Paul McCartney has come forward to express his disappointment at the band for reuniting without Plant. He basically says that the reunion won’t be the same without Plant.
He says, “What’s happened to Planty? He was great at their gig. It’s such a pity.”
Agreed!

Paul McCartney has apparently taken a nice dig at his ex-wife Heather “Mucca” Mills on his new album for his side project, The Fireman.
The opening song, called Nothing Too Much, Just Out Of Sight, contains lyrics that are said to be an attack:

In new morning light
I’ll never forget it
And that’s just outta sight
He signs off with this nice little tidbit: And you have money/ And no manners.
Snap! Think it’s a dig?

Dancing With the Stars’ Heather Mills is trying to take Paul McCartney for all she can…and more.
Turns out, $41 million dollars just isn’t enough. She, in fact, wants $102 million, which is so much more than 41, but not as much as the initial $300 PLUS million that she wanted in the first place.
WTF?!
