Gossip or fact? Beth Ditto used to eat squirrels?!

that is COOL!

And I've not even heard them yet.

Daft Americans.

I once ate badger ham.

I'm sorry.

come over here and go on a grey squirrel eating spree. they're non-native and are forcing out the native reds. they're also officially vermin & some pubs serve them roasted.

dunno of any specific, but it got on the news a while back. i suspect they're sold as a luxary in the cotswolds!
here oop north we don't have meat at all!

Maybe she's just taking the P out of the NME cool list...maybe they'll print a retraction next month and give it to Bono instead...

It doesn't explain the obesity

Not likely!

The NME cool list has lost all my resepct, not that it ever gained much of it but her? Pah

this was clearly stated in the guardian a month ago, and the moment it hits a red top then suddenly it's a scandal, hello? sad publicity seeking effort in progress!?!
She is a fucking disgrace, being yourself is one thing, being an inspiration for a heart attack pre thirty five is another. Can she not say, yes I am a lardarse but I eat my greens or something? The music is substandard kathleen hanna/jon spencer as it is, can't she make up for that by being a real role model for something worthwhile?

i feel retarded for looking at this post.

she already made the beaver joke herself. on PopWorld

is not going to like this

assuming it tastes nice. And Venison is ace; i'd be well chuffed to be presented with a whole carcass (although, living in Notts i assume the staff at Wollaton Park would be pretty miffed).

But it all sounds a bit made up. Squirrels are nippy, agile little things and being stoned tends to ruin your aim. Also, I am confused by the eating it 'like chicken' claim. Did they actually do roasties, veg, gravy, stuffing etc.? or is there some other American way to serve chicken? If only she were from Ukraine; Squirrel Kiev FTW!

hah.
considering that its pretty stupid sounding in the first place, but then you realize she said it right after the GUITARIST has a roadkill/i-eat-things-you-see-on-the-side-of-the-road story.
uhhh huhhh.

the world holds it's breath! Squirrels aside it really does say alot about the decline of the NME & society in general when an obese, obnoxious, american is deemed the coolest person in music, she can sing granted. However, her band sucks & if she is the embodiment of 'cool' then I think most of us would rather avoid it!
