John Mellencamp, 66, Can't and Won't Quit Those Smelly Cigarettes

Has Meg Ryan lost her tits? Why do these multimillionaires all dress in very expensive faux shitty outfits.

Since when is Meg Ryan a non-smoker?

This fool has had a heart attack and yet still continues to smoke. He obviously has no interest in quitting or improving his health.

Why do you give a fuck, OP? Are you Christie Brinkley? Americans can't mind their own damn business.

I saw them on the street in Charleston, SC about a year ago coming out of a restaurant (Husk) after dinner. There was a black SUV parked just up the street waiting for them and Meg was WASTED off her ass - laughing and babbling and John and the driver had to basically carry her ass to the SUV. I was kind of crushed because I always thought of her as a little pixie cutie-pie. He’s so gross and yes -he had a cigarette.

shut up moralistic bicthes

She looks pretty fit for a "smoker", r2.

Smoking is disgusting, but bad plastic surgery left her with joker face and she really can’t afford to be picky.

Worse — he’s wearing boot cut jeans

Mellencamp is usually attired in sweats.

I didn't know these two were still together. All these shots of them seem to be in NYC streets. Does John still have a spread in (snort) Indiana? Would Megs be caught dead there?

I have two close friends that each said they were going to quit smoking in the 1990s. As of today they still smoke. It's extremely difficult for some people to quit, so I can understand Mellencamp's situation.

Yeah, dating a musician who has led an interesting and successful life, generally well respected, and still attractive for his age and seemingly still interested in going out and about and living his life, would absolutely be out of the question because he is a smoker.

If this is your example of a reject because he's a smoker, you can send them my way.

They both look a bit clownish. Not aging with one shred of dignity.

Mellencamp has bigger problems than smoking, his two sons terrorize much of Indiana south of Indianapolis. The boys Speck and Hud have been arrested multiple times, beaten guys up and run from the police.

More

When he was dating Christie, she made him look so rough and aged. She looked great at 60 and he looks like a tired, sick, worn out 75 year old.

Did he name his son Speck after the famed nurse killer?

Speck and Hud? Sounds like a Warehouse store.

His kids sound like textbook Deplorables.

Do you think he's boning Meg Ryan?

Smoking is a major cause of Erectile Dysfunction.

His kids probably smoke too.

Why are there so many rabid anti John Mellencamp people out there? Who sits around thinking about , not to mention stalking the life and times of John Mellencamp?

I don't think I've thought of him for years, until seeing this thread...

This has crossed over from sort of strange, and possibly amusing to really bizarre.

Mellencamp Interview on David Letterman. Dicusses his smoking, his heart attack and says "My Body is so Polluted..."

r24 must be new to Datalounge.

he dum as fug. sad....be dead in a year.

That's what OP said 5 years ago.

He seems like he barely has a 5th grade education.

Hoosiers are usually into meth or opiates. Tobacco is retro.

I’ll never forget when he was on Bill Maher years ago and Maher was asking him why people in the Midwest believe whatever the fuck anyone tells them as gospel truth. “What’s up with that? Why do they lack skepticism of any kind?” Mellencamp said it was because they are great people. “No they’re not! They believe all kinds of ridiculous shit just because someone told them it was true. People like George W Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney.” Mellencamp said that everyone should be like that. Everyone should only tell the truth all the time and that way we can believe everything that anybody tells us.

R14 is definitely a smoker

Offensive, trashy, disgusting habit that culminates in littering all over the place with no outcry from the public (if I even chucked a KLEENEX on the sidewalk, someone would say something--why do we accept butts flicked all over Christendom?). Not do people who smoke stink, they gain nothing from it! When I was heavily abusing alcohol, at least I was getting fucked up for the amount of money I was wasting! What do smokers gain?! They're sober, out of money, and smell like an unwashed asshole rubbed in a campfire. Great idea!

...and if I could quit drinking (it was bad...drinking in the morning at work bad), smokers can quit their shit. It's just because it's still somehow acceptable that they continue to do it. Make it illegal, close down the works, end of.

[quote]why do we accept butts flicked all over Christendom?

MARY!

A couple of fuddy dudddies....his cigs, sloppy sweats and her big orthopedic sandals.

Speck was his grandfathers name.

way to go u selfish fuk, spread ur poison round ur family and friends, to hell with them , to hell with ur lungs, go die and rid this world of one persons toxic cloud.

SO WEAK TO NOT BE ABLE TO STOP SUCH A SHITTY HABIT. DO U CRY? FEEL SCARED? NEUROTIC? WHEN U STOP? POOR DAD.

And Hud was ..........short for hudcap?

he is the best she can do???

girl go bak to ur young lads fer lovin...

Meg needs a Keith Urban type. Not this.

[quote]There was a black SUV parked just up the street waiting for them and Meg was WASTED off her ass - laughing and babbling and John and the driver had to basically carry her ass to the SUV.

That kind of makes me like her. I always imagined her uptight and cold.

He's 66 and she's what? 60 in Hollywood years? Give them a fucking break. I don't understand how she forgave after his fling with the "deal-with-the-devil" Brinkley, but c'est la vie. She really fucked up leaving Denis Quaid for Russel Crowe of all fucking twats.

She has always been a smoker r7. It helps keep her thin. The legs are from years of tap dance. She also does yoga. Basically, she is like every other woman in Hollywood, down to the bad plastic surgery.

poor meg

this her final bid for a bit of attention.

a notorious grouch and ill tempered fool, he must be on some domination trip with missy meggie

Idiot smoker almost burned down one of Switzerland's treasured bridges the other day.

her poor kids havin to smell her damn smoke.

bad mommying.

Her kids are grown. Again, are you all posting from 1990? Did your laptop just tell you that "you've got mail?"

let the fugs smoke themselves to death.

Surprised he is still alive... looks like he is gasping his last breaths, with the help of a cigarette.

I remember one of his sons on public radio's Marketplace many years ago-- the son was, I think, 16 at the time. He had started a petition to get his dad to stop smoking and had thousands of signatures.

IIRC, the Marketplace story was related to the cost of smoking, or maybe quitting.

I pity the kids, growing up in a house that's a cloud of smoke.

with his hubris, I doubt he smoked outside.

BAD DADDI

Baby Jane and the Belligerant Hillbilly

r21

As opposed to AIDS infested homos?

Mellencamp's son Hud was named after Paul Newman's character in his favorite film. Speck was the nickname of Mellencamp's grandfather, who was born Harry Perry Mellencamp.

R54, that whole family tree sounds like trash.

There is no way they are having sex. He smokes, probably can't get it up. and can't use bill pill coz of heart problems.

Who are the tards in this thread who think smoking causes impotence? The entire Baby Boomer generation was fathered by smokers and they were the most numerous generation in the US until very recently.

It’s a shame that smokers can’t be deported.

Why are the sons such losers? Where is their mother?

Meg, what a downgrade.

Did not know he cheated on Meg with Christie.

John's first wife.

John looks like a woman who keeps her cigs in a cloth pouch with a gold clasp.

my only thought is that the SEX must be well worth it.

he has to have a big thick cock

he must bang her fast, deep and hard

probably introduced her to anal sex and cum swallowing

smokers have problems with their arteries, narrowing of blood vessels, ie, not enough blood going everywhere...including the cock.

R57... Yes, the smoking fathers of those Baby Boomers were all impotent by the time they reached 66 YEARS OF AGE, you tard.

That is, if they hadn't died already from heart disease and lung cancer.

R60, that is wife number THREE, model Elaine Irwin. You need to turn in your Datalounge Pop Culture badge.

No one noticed R53?

Personal life

Mellencamp lives five miles outside of Bloomington, Indiana on the shores of Lake Monroe,[56] but he also has a vacation home in Daufuskie Island, South Carolina.[57] In January 2018, Mellencamp purchased an 1,800-square foot loft in the Soho district of New York City for $2.3 million.[58]

Mellencamp was married to Priscilla Esterline from 1970 until 1981 and to Victoria Granucci from 1981 until 1989. He married fashion model Elaine Irwin on September 5, 1992. On December 30, 2010, Mellencamp announced that he and Irwin had separated after 18 years of marriage.[59] Their divorce became official on August 12, 2011, with the couple negotiating "an amicable settlement of all issues involving property and maintenance rights, the custody and support of their children, and all other issues", according to the settlement agreement.[60]

Mellencamp has five children from his three marriages: daughter Michelle from his marriage to Esterline; daughters Teddi Jo and Justice from his marriage to Granucci; and sons Hud and Speck from his marriage to Irwin.

After his divorce from Irwin, Mellencamp began dating actress Meg Ryan.[61] It was reported Mellencamp and Ryan broke up in the summer of 2014 after dating for over three years.[62] In October 2014, it was revealed that Mellencamp and Ryan were back together.[63] In the summer of 2015, it was reported they broke up again.[64]

In September 2015, Mellencamp began a new relationship with former supermodel Christie Brinkley.[65] In August 2016, the couple announced their separation after almost a year of dating.[66][67] In July 2017 it was reported Mellencamp and Ryan have reunited and are dating again.[68]

R35, R11, OP What the fuck is up with her horrible shoes non slip bus boy shoes and hideous mandals? Maybe they really are orthopedic shoes. Not to mention her Mrs. Beasley octagon sunglasses. Where the fuck does she shop?

Not to mention her book bag purse.

She's been spending too much time in Indiana. Her "look" fits right in there.

Meg has always looked like a homeless person. in terms of her sense of style.

She has always irritated the shit out of me. That fake orgasm scene makes me want to choke her out. So fucking stupid.

Let him smoke. The sooner I get my inheritance the sooner I can get off RHOBH.

Is his kid on RHWOBH?

his horrid temper is legendary.

big fat baby

'I wont quit ,,,,I wont quit smoking I don't care boooo hoooo

I remember she was interviewed by Barbara Walters, I believe on one of her pre Oscar specials. She was married to Dennis Quaid at the time and Barbara asked her if he was Mr. Right. She replied, "For right now." Fucking bitch . If I were Quaid I would have divorced her ass the next day.

I remember hearing an extended story on NPR about a musical developed between a a collaboration of T Bone Burnett, Stephen King & Mellencamp, the upshot being that Mellencamp came across as an extreme asshole. The smoking thing is gross, to be sure, but it sounds as if he has bigger problems. And yes, in interviews, he does come across as a hapless moron.

zero charisma......

Mellancamp interview disaster.

r41 Kind of uptight. Kind of cold...

he is a joke in the industry

cunty little brat.

so is she. 2 lonely fuks who found each other in the lonely drunk smokey night.

I give him a year....

he has an oxygen tank at home, yet by god he wants to smoke smoke smoke his way into the wet gloomy grave.'

John Mellencamp interviewed by Jane Pauley 7 02 2017.

Not a bad interview. I think he and Jane are flirting with each other in that interview. Women must find him charming despite the constant smoke. He's going to drop dead soon, probably but it sounds like a life well lived. Then again, he doesn't do drugs or drink so maybe he'll hang around. You never know when your number's up.

Jane is flirting - doing her reporter "professional flirting duty" thing. That's all, r86.

R75 Yes, Teddi Jo Mellencamp is on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She's a "responsibility coach" and very laid back. Not much drama there which I find refreshing but most DLers find biring. No big money, either, which she's upfront about.

She's also an accomplished equestrian and goes horse riding with Lisa Vanderpump who calls her Teddi Bear. Their new friendship seems to annoy some of the others. (These women are very competitive about how much attention they get and from whom.)

Boring not biring^^

love teddy: hot and fun

john, daddy, is gross, what a weak fuk that he cant stop the cancer stix

Does he think the butch cig effect erases his bi past????

I like Teddi too; she's surprisingly down to earth and doesn't appear to have inherited the Mellencamp hobbit looks. I haven't the slightest idea what a "responsibility coach" is, but I guess at least she has some ambition

How Smoking 30 packs Wrecks Your Lungs ● You Must See This !

Chain-smoking for decades?

Yes, he was.

Robert Plante was hotter back in the day, r97.

R5 u should have filmed her in that state and sold the footage to a tabloid tv show.

R72, that's an incredibly cruel and nasty thing to say about homeless people.

Why the fuck is she wearing a semi-tailored sleeping bag at r100? No body fat at all to keep her warm?

Weed stinks more than cigs

the gall of smokers to subtly kill them around them with their g dam cigs is unreal.

let them kill themselves if they want.

mellencamp has increased the chances of lung/heart cancer in his kids by smoking in the house/car by ten fold
