's message, "I READ HER BOOK..." on 14:53:55 08/29/02 Thu
People dislike Bebe on this site because she got in rude feuds with her ex husband on here, refused to share any groupie stories and insisted she was a "muse" not a groupie --while at the same time insulting groupies. She was quite the horror, but, in a sick way the whole thing was quite entertaining.
