MACKENZIE PHILLIPS tell-all SHOCKER: MOLESTED BY DAD
National Enquirer ^ | 07/24/2009 | staff

Posted on 07/25/2009 5:13:11 AM PDT by tlb

One Day at a Time star Mackenzie Phillips was molested by her father John Phillips, the founding lead singer of The Mamas & the Papas!

That's the explosive secret the 49-year-old former child actress will reveal in a scathing memoir due to hit bookstores next March, says a publishing insider.

While the publisher, Simon Spotlight, has not publicly confirmed Mackenzie's molestation admission, it released a statement saying the troubled actress would reveal a "shocking, lifelong secret."

Her addictions led to the downward spiral of her career, arrests and many stints in rehab, as well as two near-fatal overdoses.

"In addition to the molestation disclosure,the book will certainly cover a wild life of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll," added the source.

"She'll write about getting high with her father and rolling joints for the Rolling Stones.

Seems believable in conjunction with the story of how Mick Jagger had sex with her while John just stood on the other side of the doorway asking Mick not to get rough.

Drugs or not she was quite good on her old sitcom. Pity TVLand hasn't room for old shows like this with all the reality shows they now run instead. Not to mention 40 hours a week of Rosanne.

It is tragic either way. She was either molested by her father or she is so disparate for money she is sensationalizing her life story. No way to know for sure which one it is at this point.

In addiction/alcoholism molestation is a very common part of the patient's history; not predominate, but quite (and disturbingly) common.

I have little doubt that this is true.

Babe, you gotta go where you wanna go
And do what you wanna do
With whoever you wanna do it with.

I didn’t know they were related. Wasn’t John Phillips the one who was eventually jailed for something involving a very young teenage girl? Or am I thinking of another one of these drearily disgusting “rockers.”

I think she should have at least made these acusations when he was alive so that he could have defended himself.

John Philips was a VERY good songwriter...a parent, not so much.

I wonder if her step-mother, “Mama” Michelle Phillips, will comment?

At least 30% of the females you know have been sexually molested by age 18. Some estimates are closer to 50%. Food for thought.

Very doubtful assertion. Sounds like one of those typical claims by Liberals and feminists like spousal abuse goes way up during the SuperBowl or 10% of the population is gay.

Simply not believable.

It would be a good idea to cite those stats. Sex researchers going back to Kinsey are notorious for cooking their stats (such as including large numbers of prison inmates) in order to make depravity look more commonplace. Your statistics may well be sourced to some feminazi whose life mission is to malign men.

Very questionable. However, if you’re talking about the percentage of teenage boys accosted by homosexuals (especially in California) I’d say its spot on.

“Simply not believable.”

I agree. You do have to look at how they define assault. My daughter in college went out with a guy who got a little “handy”. (I would like to bust his skull - but that’s another story.) He stopped, but my daughter said he was a little pushy. Now, according to the college policy, she was assaulted and could press charges. This isn’t a life changing event, this is a 20 year old male trying to procreate. There are lines, and when a woman says no it means no. But, in a lot of cases groups cite cases like my daughters as assault. Real assault is tragic. When you define it down, you cheapen the true victims.-—JM

That’s exactly it! Hippies!! Such a sorry lot. And thank you, Lord, for taking me out of Berkeley in the nick of time. Our poor generation.

How about this? What is with all the tie-dye clothes and hippie fashions lately? That is really disgusting. As was the street fair here in our town in So Cal recently, which called quite a few OLD hippies out.

I am so sorry...

Your right and the same goes for rape....being sorry you agreed to have sex and the next day yelling Rape is not Rape. Getting dead drunk and screwing someone is not rape...Some women cheapen true rape like the little boy that called Wolf once too ofen..
