How Yoko Ono relentlessly pursued John Lennon

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

both Lennon and Yoko are gay

Yes, yes, we all know that when she could not get Paul she went after John, took over his life...blah blah blah.

This dish is decades old.

It's not just old, it's ridiculous. Like Lennon couldn't have just said no?

I never understood this. Wasn't Yoko from a rich family? Why didn't she go after a good looking man who didn't have a stank sleeve?

I always get Yoko's voice confused with Connie Francis's.

Of course, most of the venom against Yoko was anti-Asian racism.

That said, she is a modestly talented, thoroughly annoying person who elbowed her way into history.

I read this in a book so long ago, can't recall who wrote it. She is awful . This new generation thinks she is so great. She is hot trash.

by Anonymousreply 18December 6, 2018 3:53 PM

She saw her main chance and went for it.

A certain kind of westernized Japanese women knows how to do this. Not uncommon.

And then she controlled Lennon all through the marriage, including playing victim, encouraging addiction, deploring addiction, crapping out fatso Sean, manipulating the finances, shivving Julian, etc.

She has no depth and her art has never developed. She produced two fair cuts - probably with someone else doing the work - and she has hundreds of millions to give her sonny when she eventually decays into venom dust and smugness grease.

Ok, she’s a succubus. But what does this say about Lennon, though?

Her family WAS rich--she went to school with the current emperor--but John was far, far richer.

Also, she wanted the power and popularity to which he gave her access. She was in her own way the Big Gay Al Reynolds of the 1960s.

John's descent into hell seemed so sad to me, and I blame it all on her. I know that's not entirely true or even fair, but I can't help it. The pre-Yoko John was glorious. The post-Yoko John was a seventy pound, snarling heroin addict.

Lennon may be the poster child for finding out too much about a celebrity that was revered and respected.

Yoko didn't create the dark side of Lennon. She gave him the impetus to bring it all out in the open.

I still appreciate some of the music he gave the world, particularly "Across The Universe," but it speaks volumes that he chose Yoko over his own son, Julian, and shut Julian out of his life per Yoko's demand. And to give an interview and call Julian the product of a bottle of whiskey for the whole world to read from now until the day Julian dies?

Sadly, John and Yoko fit together like a hand in a glove. There are no excuses to be made for him.

Do psychologists study the irrational hatred that people have for this person? The decades-old hatred? I'm sure that we'd learn a lot about the human psyche if doctors could get to the bottom of why people who have never met Yoko Ono are obsessed with her year after year after year.

Yoko should have thrown herself in front of the gun. It's the least she could have done for the world.

There's nothing irrational about it at all.

People don't have to meet her to know her.

Yoko Ono attached herself to the public spotlight over 50 years ago like some kind of mutant leech that can't be pried off it. For over 50 years, she has made sure EVERYBODY knows who she is and everything she thinks and has done.

One of the cruelest things John Lennon did is yelling at a young, giggling Julian, “I hate the way you f*cking laugh.”

[quote]"People who don't know we say I hitched my wagon to a star," objected Miss Ono. "But that it the opposite. If I just wanted to be associated with a star, I could have very early. Rusty invited me to a my first recording session. It was Connie Francis. I had never met the lady -- she was really a girl then -- but she was a very big star. When I walked in, Rusty and I overhead her say to Tony, 'I'm gonna bang that Oriental like a gong!' Connie, I soon discovered, was a very aggressive bull dagger in private. Not at all like she was in public. If I had wanted to use a star, I could have. But I was a very modern woman for the time. I didn't like being pursued. I wanted to be the one pursuing. And Connie was very aggressive. Plus, I knew her career was going nowhere. She wasn't an artist. She was a singer who got lucky a few times. But not with me!, " Miss Ono adds with a laugh. "When I met John, it was different. He didn't go after me. But I knew what I wanted. Unlike Connie, he was an artist. He still had great things ahead but he need me to make them happen. Now, everyone knows I am as big a star as John, But not then. Maybe he hitched his wagon it me, right?"

I saw her one Christmas season in Tiffany's, NYC. I hesitated, but then thought, "WTHey?!" So I went and greeted her, and she was very kind in reply, putting her hand over mine.

And lived in luxury while others were homeless.

"She gave him sex, he gave her class." Was said about Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire,

OT Lennon beat his first wife and as emotionally abusive to Julian. As someone above said, john and yoko deserved each other.
