Let's have this thread as a handy one-stop shop for pop stars' most boring and oft-repeated anecdotes, so that we'll never have to hear them ever again.

- Billy Bragg took John Peel a mushroom biriyani in order to get his demo played or something

- Everett True invented Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. Or something

- Phil Oakey recruited those two women for The Human League after meeting them in a club. Possibly.

You get the idea.
