FAITHFULL: 'JAGGER WANTED CHRISTIE INSTEAD'
British singer MARIANNE FAITHFULL believes former boyfriend MICK JAGGER dated her as a substitute for movie actress JULIE CHRISTIE.
The 58-year-old veteran rocker was romanced by the ROLLING STONE frontman during the 1960s because the vivacious blonde reminded him of the fashionable OSCAR-winning DARLING icon - who he had failed to woo.
Faithfull says, "What I heard, which I do believe, is that what he really wanted was Julie Christie and when he couldn't get her he picked on me.
"And I don't think he knew, when he fell in love with me, when we fell in love together - and he didn't catch me for another three years - how much we had in there. Slowly he began to find out."
As for stories of their constant partying, Faithfull concedes the opposite was closer to the truth.
She adds, "We had a very domestic existence, but the tragedy was that it wasn't enough for me - to marry Mick and have a lot of children would not have been enough.
"There was going to be a moment where I had to leave and get on with my life."

Julie Christie was outstanding in her time. Was Mick too shy to "woo" her or did she turn him down? |

I wouldnt believe a word that old crow says.
Sure, she did Mick for several years because Keith told her to and she loved him?
So, when Jagger dumped her, she shouldnt have given a shit? Except, to her, Keith would be upset?
Buy her a box of Mars bars and hope tell her to get over it.
She was dumped!
She is the weakest link!
Bye-bye!
bah-bao. (um, thats supposed to be that buzzer sound, but i dont know how to type it).
Bar-bow perhaps? |

Hey, now that was uncalled for! Give the girl a break corgi! I don't understand why the women that had / have relationships with the Stones should always get this treatment. Mick was no saint, neither was Marianne, but they both had something there and they both left the relationship with quite some buggage... You don't cross people out of your life.
Not to mention, that it's not really Marianne's choice: she gets to be asked the same stupid questions that certain journalists think are "sensational", oh tell us about your affairs with Mick and Keith and co... I've read a hundred times her refusing to asnwer, but some questions do get answered and they get republished, and I don't think it's her fault.
Marianne has done lots of mistakes, but has a lot to her credit as well... And with all that behind, I recognize her the right to repeat as many times as she wants any number of stories fom HER life. |

Agreed Fotini!!
AND I might add, Marianne has consistently put out new material..much of it critically acclaimed. More than I can say for a pair of Twins we all know and love! 
Let's show her some respect. She's earned it!

Respect what? Her wildy varying thoughts on history? She is still bitter, and its pretty sad if you ask me.
But, really, she shouldnt be bitter, because she loved Keith, not Mick.
She must have been suicidal when Keith got married to Patti!
She's just full of shit. She wont admit Jagger dumped her because she was a hopeless junkie. |

I don't think she's STILL bitter. She keeps getting asked the same questions over and over again. She's a woman, that's the problem imo. The world and the press and everyone can accept a man going around in circles, sleeping with many different women at the same time, having a Peter Pan syndrome and releasing solo records refusing to advance musically but only trying to imitate the latest trends - but a woman should be stigmatized forever cause she had an affair with a rock star. Big deal.
We weren't inside their relationship to see just what went wrong Corgi, but I think the woman does deserve some respect. She made it through the sixties, junk AND Jagger, and that alone gives her many points in my book. Not to mention, as LJ pointed out, her records are always meaningful and her music and live performances are great.
And a hopeless junkie! Should Mick then have thrown Keith out of the band when he was a hopeless junkie?! |

Well, he wasnt doing Keith like he was doing Faithfull.
Or, was he??? hahahaha.
Plus, Keith made him money. Maybe the only thing more important to Jagger, apart from himself, was/is money.
