When I was a kid there was a rumor going around my school that Jim Morrison had so much sex in one day that his penis peeled in half like a banana. I believed it, briefly. Can anyone confirm or deny this? What are some other urban legends you’ve heard about rock stars?

    filthqueen666 this is a fun one. My favorite growing up was Rod Stewart having to get his stomach pumped because it was so full of cum.
    Also never heard this Jimbo rumor, but I like it

      “having to get his stomach pumped because it was so full of cum”
      Don’t ya just hate when that happens

        I still think my favorite one is Marilyn Manson getting his rib removed so he can suck his own dick. EVERYONE in my immediate town knew about this. The skaters, the punks, the jocks, the weirdos.....a rumor that truly crossed boundaries.

        LOL, great minds....

        filthqueen666 What about that one that Marilyn Manson is Paul Pfeiffer from The Wonder Years? I thought that was true for ages.

        The double banger of Marilyn Manson also being Paul Pheifer as well as the previously mentioned self suck surgery really hit.

        Heard this about Alice Cooper in the 80s

        Señor Scratchy
        her publicist issued a formal denial at some point
        this one is my favorite because everyone seemed to know someone who's brother knew the guy who blew it up there for her

        KISS stands for Knights In Satan's Service (false)
        KISS added their blood to the red ink used in the KISS comic book (true)

        Rumor about the Surf Punks that one was the son of Captain and Tennille and the other's dad was the Captain from the Love Boat. Neither fully true but one of the Surf Punks was the brother of Captain (of "and Tennille" fame)

        The Rod Stewart, Stevie Nicks, Alice Cooper ones were the other big ones

        What I find fascinating about these are the way they spread word of mouth across the country (world?). Also, how did something the like chant to Billy Idol's "Mony Mony" spread the same way (though this seems to be slightly different regionally)

          Al Dorado yes, these were complete word of mouth, schoolyard rumors. It’s kind of beautiful that the big ones you mentioned transcended generations and time zones.

          Slightly off topic but I only recently learned of the KISS blood comic from this vague prank call spoof from Longmont Potion Castle. I can’t decide if a blood or LSD comic would be cooler.

            When John Lennon died, the coroner found 16 pounds of shitty songs in his body.

              Yep I heard this from the chavs at school in England, 2002 or so. Well done humanity.

              It is very annoying when that happens. I was telling Scott that 'Rod Stewart's cum filled tummy' should be a moniker card.

              Also yeah it is strange how these rumors spread worldwide. I believe I was still in elementary school when I heard both the Rod Stewart rumor and the Richard Gere one involving his bum and a hamster.
