Long before that thing called Madonna showed up on the scene, Yoko Ono pioneered the art of self-promotion. An artist, and activist, and skilled manipulator, she hitched herself to the coattails of John Lennon, and they became a team. One that was sadly broken by Mark David Chapman, back in 1980.
Back in the day, I held she and Linda McCartney responsible for the break-up of the Beatles, but those days now so long past, I don't know how I feel about that one, anymore.
I was horrified to hear Yoko was rushed to the hospital last night. In fact, she was rushed to Mt. Sinai West, which used to be St. Luke's Roosevelt.
The word on the street was that Yoko, having just turned 83 nine days ago, had had a stroke. Now, they are just claiming flu-like symptoms, dehydration, and that she may be discharged later today. What I want to know is, how do you dehydrate at 83????????? Drink, darling, drink!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yoko may look cunning and inventive in this photo, girls, but she is no Baayork Lee! Yoko can't dance a step, so she does not know how to put herself together, like Baayork. She can posture all she wants, but I have seen street shots of her where she looks like some bag hag!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nevertheless, Yoko is wished well. Any relic of the Sixties which us baby boomers can cling to, we are grateful for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
