Steven Tyler of Aerosmith Haunted by Girlfriend's Abortion

Long before he won accolades as an American Idol judge, Steven Tyler was a bona-fide rock star, with all that that implied. In 1975, when he was in his late 20s and the lead singer for the band Aerosmith, Tyler persuaded the parents of his 14-year-old girlfriend, Julia Holcomb, to make him her legal guardian so that they could live together in Boston.

So, the guy’s scum. Did someone expect more of him. Baby killer, pedophile, poor musician ~ probably a doper to boot.

If you are the legal guardian of a 14 year old girl, does that give you the right to have her, sexually? Just asking, because it sure seems like he broke some laws if he got her pregnant.

I can’t stand him

[Tax-chick]

Wasn’t that he on the cover of “Rolling Stone” recently? He looks like Donatella Versace.

Didn’t know Tyler was Muslim

What kind of parents would allow this to happen?

[Terry Mross]

He pursuaded her parents? More like he bought the girl. Gonna’ be hard to convict muslims for doing this if we don’t convict rock stars. Elvis did the same thing.

He should have gone to jail for statutory rape. He must have bought off the girls parents.

Tyler and Elvis - and also Bill Wyman and Gary Glitter.

I can't believe I read that.

Even way back when that usually raised the age of consent. That way guardians didn’t get out of hand so readily. Not too late to lock him up is it?

[peridot]

Nothing new. Priscilla’s parents let her go and live with Elvis and his grandma. She was the same age. Money and celebrity talks.

[FrogMom]

Me either. I went back and read it again, I couldn’t believe what I’d read.

After the abortion, Tyler began a torrid affair with Playboy model Bebe Buell while still seeing Julia, the mother of his aborted son. If you were wondering what happened to Julia (who is referred to as Diana Hall in the book) after this purportedly psychologically safe procedure, Bebe tells us: “There were many suicidal calls from poor Diana as they were breaking up. It was actually a pretty sad time.”

Destroying a young girl's soul should be.

pedo scum bag

They're pretty much sober these days, AA meetings and all that, although I just read that he and his lead guitarist went on a drug binge a few years ago, looking for inspiration (what kind of influence is that?) for a new album.

Yeah, he's pretty much a self-admitted dirtbag. I remember seeing an interview years ago, in which he said he tried to put Peru up his nose. He claimed at one point, he was so messed up on cocaine for so long, he saw the Devil himself, and that's when the band decided to sober up.

I thought they were cool back in my teenage days, but now I look at their "Get Your Wings" album cover, and you can tell they were on their last leg at that time. They looked like death warmed over. Their eyes look like burnt coals. Like the Rolling Stones, that they're still breathing is a tribute to how much abuse the human body can take.

One of his kids is Liv Tyler, and he didn't acknowledge her existence for years, although recently I guess he made amends with her.

I read an excerpt from his new book appropriately titled "Is the Noise Inside My Head Bothering You?" Really heavy on the narcissism, and sounds like it was written by a high school kid.

Me three.

There are plenty of folks on this forum who wouldn't have a problem with it.

There is no amount of money or celebrity that would let me hand over my 14 year old daughter to a grown man. I’d nail her door shut and allow her out at 18.
