This was one of those that made me realize that celebrities are a whole other breed. Hollywood is full of this shit, even worse in the 70s and 80s. Hell, David Bowie and Mick Jagger were fucking 14 year olds and people still worship them.

Kendrick called out Drake recently by rapping that he has a nymph fetish. Never knew there was another name besides ephebophile/pedophile, but yeah wtf... Is it being stuck mentally at an age they didn't grow from sexually or something?

The line from Kendrick's Meet the Grahams is actually

He hates Black women, hypersexualizes ’em with kinks of a nympho fetish

This part isn't about children, it's generally believed to be about Drakes alleged assault on Laquana Morris.

The former stripper and Instagram model alleged: “Drake forced me to perform oral on him. It wasn’t your ordinary oral it was more so a fetish.” She then describes how he told her to spit into a cup “until he had measured it."

Ah damn lmao, I totally misheard it as nymph fetish, shoot! Thought it was a reference to him getting close to 14 year old Millie Bobbie Brown 😅

He did also call him a pedo multiple times

I don't know anything about the Drake/Kendrick thing, but the term nymph probably became associated with pedophilia because of the novel Lolita. It's one of the creepy endearments the main character comes up with while he is obsessing over the child he's going to rape later in the story.

Is Bowie and Jagger riding 14 year olds a rumour, in a book, or in a court case?

Lori Maddox says that she lost her virginity to Bowie when she was 15, but she has also said she was in a relationship with Jimmy Page starting when she was 13/14, and that she lost her virginity to Page, which if true would mean she didn't lose her virginity to Bowie.

Then you have to look at her changing story about the Bowie incident. She's said it happened in 1972, but then she also has said he propositioned her in 1972, but they didn't have sex until 1973, when she said she had dinner with Bowie and they were joined by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, but Bowie didn't meet John Lennon until 1974. Then she said they went back to his suite at the Hilton and had sex, but Bowie was staying at the Hyatt during his 1973 tour.

Another version she's told is that she and Sable Starr went to the Beverly Hilton and found out what room Bowie was in and snuck in. There they convinced a tired Bowie to have sex with Maddox for 3-4 hours, then had a threesome with Maddox and Sable, who then snuck out. But in another telling of the story she has said that Bowie's wife Angie walked in on them the next morning.

She also has issues with her story about sleeping with Mick Jagger, where she claims to have attended a 1975 recording session with John, Paul, Ringo, and Mick Jagger, and then had sex with Jagger immediately afterwards. The main issue is that the only Lennon McCartney jam session after the Beatles broke up happened in 1974, and Mick Jagger wasn't at it.

None of this is to say she didn't lose her virginity to Bowie when she was 14-15, but there are lots of photos of her and Jimmy Page from 1972-75 but none with her and Bowie.

It was a long time ago, and memory is unreliable, which could explain the inconsistencies in her different telling of the events, and I would not be surprised in both Bowie and Jagger had sex with underage people, but Lori Maddox's stories aren't the best evidence to hang them with.

Ah so in other words you don't care if it's celebrities YOU worship. You don't even wanna hear it.

[-] Clanket@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That's a bizarre reply. Nobody said that, they're your words.

So... you don't know the source of your suppositions then...? Thankfully the 2nd commenter does.
