We saw DVD live at a fundraiser event about a year ago. He was singing and dancing like a man 1/3 his age– pretty amazing. And it was in a sweltering auditorium– the AC was overwhelmed.
He also had his 50-something trophy? wife with him.
She insisted on performing and was god-awfully atrocious.
He literally asked her to leave the stage. I wouldn’t have wanted to be in the car with them on the way home.
If this Wikipedia fact is accurate, the wife was only about 44 when you saw her, and the reason she's a lousy performer is that she's a cosmetics technician rather than ... a performer.
Aw, she was looking bad so he could look even better!
It seems that every great man has his own Yoko Ono to deal with. “I wanna sing too!! Look at all these people here to watch US perform. I’m ready for MY close up!”
