The thing that is so interesting about the whole Miss Pamela saga and me is that she wrote something VERY nasty about me in her first book- she told a story about some Alice Cooper show that NEVER happened. I have since gotten over it and forgiven her but it was still really confusing to me why she would do that. She also said I was older in the telling of her story than I was. Her exact words were "she was 23 and I was 26." NO, she was 26 and I was 20 going on 21 when I first met her. I sent her a copy of my passport, etc... and she fixed it in the paperback but it was yet another dig at me for NO REASON! In her second book she once again sort of dissed me and neglected to say anything about my friendship with her son when he was having some problems, my visits to him in the hospital, my support towards her in difficult times- she just said that we were "friends now." I NEVER looked at any of this as a competition of any sort. I also NEVER understood what I did to deserve her venom. I put all of this behind me now but I barely knew those West Coast girls. ESPECIALLY barely knew Miss P.. The second or third time I met her in 1974 was in NYC and I was with Jagger. He absolutely did NOT want her to come in the car with us when I asked if she could. His exact words to me were "stay away from girls like her." When I wrote Rebel Heart I never meant to sound catty towards Pamela, Sable or Lori. I was just telling the truth about my dealings with them. I had zero against them. Pamela, like myself, does not like to be put into the same catagory as Sable or Lori. When she read my book she got upset that I mentioned them all in the same breath. I know too that in the groupie hall of fame Pamela is beloved by the new groupies and I am not so loved. Thats fine with me because I have never wanted the brass ring in that department. NEVER! I have tried very hard to be nice to Pamela over the years and only want her to be happy and healthy. I get a lot of heat for not seeing myself as one of them- one of that breed of groupie. Different strokes for different folks I guess. In my recent brushes with Page or Jagger, I feel like they treat me as part of their extended families. Always greeted warmly and with respect. The last time I saw Page he asked me if I kept a "painting in my closet." Cute- the Dorian Gray reference. BTW, he looks much better in person than he does in the photos of late. Much better!
