Rebel Heart: An American Rock and Roll Journey
By Bebe Buell
List of men Bebe Buell fucked: Todd Rundgren, Steve Tyler, Elvis Costello, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, Ron Wood, Rod Stewart, Jack Nicholson, David Bowie, Jimmy Page. Times Bebe Buell claims she is not a “groupie” in Rebel Heart: on almost every page. “Todd says I’m too classy to be a groupie. At least I’m not a coke whore. He would never call me an idiot. I felt like Grace Kelly.” Bebe Buell is the epitome of Almost Famous. If she hadn’t given birth to the ripe and ready-for-fame Liv Tyler, I’m not sure I would have ever even heard of her. And I would’ve missed out on this incredibly bad/good book.
Bebe’s delusions are fucking hilarious: Todd Rundgren was influenced by Bowie because of me. I sabotaged my modeling career on purpose. I felt like the Yoko Ono of Aerosmith. If I hadn’t dated all those men, and posed for Playboy, I would’ve been a rock star in my own right. Todd would be fucking nondescript tramps, whereas I would be fucking major icons.
My favorite Bebe fantasy concerns Elvis Costello. After many torrid weeks of love and intimacy, Elvis went back to his wife. Bebe called and called; no answer. She wrote letter after letter; no response. Bebe showed up at his concert and was banned from the backstage. Why is Elvis doing this to her?
“Now I understand why he couldn’t respond: He cannot see me again because I am irresistible to him. He says it in his songs. He can’t get too close because he’ll fall for me again.” Ow. No. He dumped you, Bebe, because you’re a psycho groupie, and he got all scared of you. Now you got me all scared of you, too.

>>Just thought those of you who didn't see this would be

>> You'd expect that a woman who spent the

>>would have many a juicy tale. But Buell - model,
>>singer, nother of Liv Tyler and prodigious shagger of

>>reputation in this dull tome. Even with rock scribe
>>Bockris helping her hold the pen, Buell is unable to
>>recount and incident without re-iterating that she was
>>a) beautiful, b)a musician in her own right and c) a
>>muse NOT a groupie. For every titbit about Jagger
>>wearing her lingerie, we must suffer the 'revelation'
>>that Prince (who she never even met) wrote 'Little Red
>>Corvette' about her, hence the lyric: "Bebe, you're
>>much too fast." A little honesty and humour wouldn't
>>have gone astray.
