According to a new book, musician John Lennon once sought a sexual relationship with Beatles bandmate Paul McCartney.
"Bohemians should try everything," the book quotes Lennon as saying in the unsuccessful bid.
McCartney and Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono, are reportedly outraged by the claim, and Ono has withdrawn her endorsement of the book, Philip Norman's John Lennon: In the Life.
"...it would have been a lot more believable if [McCartney's former wife] Heather Mills had been on the scene in the sixties," quipped Holy Moly!. "She's enough to turn anyone gay."
The book also alleges that Lennon fantasized about sleeping with his own mother. The claim that Lennon fantasized about his mother stems from an audio recording supposedly recorded a year before his death, according to The Sun . On the recording, a voice alleged to be Lennon details an incident in which he thought about having a sexual encounter with his mother. “I always think that I should have done it,” Lennon allegedly says on the tape. “Presuming she would have allowed it.”
