CHRIST! Yoko is such a leech! McLennon aside, she seriously had everything figured out, and when my friends say that she's not that bad, it just infuriates me even more. Even Julian Lennon thinks so.
In the late years many things about Yoko have been hidden or changed, if someone talks badly about yoko suddenly is considered a ‘hater’ that just wants to ruin yoko’s reputation. Once,In a beatles forum, talking about john and paul, I added how she made her part to ruin their relationship and how much she controlled John’s mind. Suddenly people started answering me like ‘are still there yoko haters outside???’ ‘poor woman some people still hate her!!’ ‘i can’t believe she still gets so much hate’.
I don’t get why, when talking about her, she MUST be considered a sort of saint, just because she was good at building herself the image of ‘john’s widow’ and supposed ‘artist’. I’m not saying she didn’t love him, I’m not saying she didn’t suffer.
I’m saying she was very clever at building the image she has now for the media, just to get attention and money from john’s death. It’s a fact. She used every piece of John to make money. I still can’t believe she did an exhibition with the clothes John wore the day he died, the glasses with the blood, to ‘sensitize the world about the amount of murders in America’. Do you think this is cool? ‘cause I don’t. There are many ways to sensitize the world, and bringing in a museum John’s clothes full of blood just to get attention is not ‘artistic’ in my opinion. Paul would be disgusted. He was disgusted in my opinion.
Oh, just to make a comparison, Paul made an exhibition with Linda’s photographs and remembered John with photos she took him during the beatles era, and the press made many articles with a photo of Paul portrayed next to a photograph of him and john composing songs and made an interview about it.
Oh, what a ‘strange’ way to remember a musician, right?
Yoko was leaving John in 1980, and married another man who loved her for 20 years. But none from the papers gave a shit about him, and she carried on being portrayed as ‘john’s widow’ for the rest of her life. She didn’t show to the world how much she moved on, the truth behind her relationship with john, and she was very clever at hidding her life while showing another image of her to the world, the ‘saint’ woman who cried every day for john’s death.
I get mad when people tries to defend her and thinks you’re a piece of shit if you think she broke up the beatles or was a bad influence on john’s life. People are influenced by the image she’s clever built for herself. That’s why nowadays people are so pro-Yoko, and if someone just dares to not like her, it’s suddenly considered a piece of shit or sexist chauvinist who doesn’t understand her ‘ART’.
Read this comment someone wrote about Cynthia’s book, when she talks about Yoko:
It’s Cynthia I feel sorry for. It’s a lie when John and yoko say they met at her art gallery. In Cynthia’s book she says that yoko actually stalked John. Yoko would be outside of their house everyday for hours. She’d also phone the house lots of times, John changed his number about 3 or 4 times because of this. She’d send a ton of letters asking John for money and she’d send notes saying ‘If you don’t support me I’ll kill myself’. On one occasion when John and Cynthia was getting into a car, yoko barged past them and sat right in the middle of them until she was at her stop. The first time Cynthia saw them together was when she came home from a holiday in Greece, she entered the sitting room to find the two of them sat in robes (yoko was wearing Cynthia’s robe) and dirty dishes were piling up in the sink. Cynthia was so shocked by this she ran upstairs to get some of her things and leave. You see, Yoko didn’t care he was married or had a son. She purposely split them up.
