O/T A Question.

Not that it makes any difference but Mandy Smith was 14, I believe. Did read somewhere that Wyman went to the police at the time they were investigating people post-Saville and asked if they wanted to talk to him about his relationship with Smith. They said no.

Status and wealth helps cover many a sin...

Seeing Cams RIP thread for Chuck Berry has got me thinking.

Why is he regarded a legend, as is e Jerry Lee Lewis when they knowingly had ***ual encounters with minors, Chuck with a 14 year old and Jerry with his 13 year old cousin.

Even the King himself Elvis, first started his relationship with Pricilla when she was only 14.

Was it just a Southern American thing?

I just ask as today this would undoubtedly end a performers career and they would be universally despised these days.

I love Elvis btw but have always had these thoughts about the aforementioned 3.

Feel free to educate me fellas.

I started a new thread as I wouldn't disrespect Cams RIP thread.

This just puzzles me that's all.

Riley It's a southern thing in the states ....

Reminds me of the couple leaving the divorce courts in Louisiana.... the woman's inconsolable sobbing away on the steps when her ex husband turns and says to her 'What yer crying for woman? I'm still yer cousin'

It was Chuck Berry that had a hit with the song "my ding a ling"

My ding a ling
My ding a ling
I want you to play with my ding a ling
