I read today that Chrissie Hynde once punched Carly Simon. Can you think of anyone more inoffensive than Carly Simon? So why did Chrissie Hynde lamp her one? If her interviews are anything to go by, she was probably eating a ham sandwich in her vicinity.
I like the Pretenders and I think Chrissie Hynde has a great voice, but I do wish she'd lighten up. The punk attitude and rabid political views are all very well, but why doesn't she give herself a break once in a while. All interviewers seem petrified of her, and she comes across as the most humourless, unsmiling martinet you could never wish to meet. I bet she's a really embarrassing mum, too.
She clearly doesn't get enough protein. She's so uptight. What she could do with is a really good crispy bacon doorstop dripping with brown sauce. Then she can remove that poker from her arse.
