THE MOST WEIRD ROCK-STARS EVER
DAVID
BOWIE There are myriad tales of cocainecrazed madness associated with David Bowie, from giving Nazi salutes to subsisting on a diet of nothing but peppers and milk, but our favourite one is the story of him, circa ‘Diamond Dogs’, hiding his own piss in the fridge because he was convinced a wizard might steal it.
JIM
THE MOST WEIRD ROCK-STARS EVER
MORRISSON When he fell in love, The Doors’ LSD-chomping frontman Jim Morrison was never likely to go for a traditional wedding. No, he married a Wiccan witch who claimed she could tell the future. At the ceremony, the pair cut their wrists with daggers and drank each other’s blood. Lovely.

When Guns N’ Roses first found fame, Axl Rose wasted no time in becoming the archetypal, ego-crazed rock star douchebag. In 1990 he had two giant topiary elephants delivered to a new house - which he never even bothered moving in to. In later years he became obsessed with homeopathic medicine, and – of course – wasted 15 years and millions of dollars recording the woeful “Chinese Democracy”.

LOVE Courtney Love’s eccentricities have been given free reign by Twitter. In the past year, via the site, she has offered be a mother to Ke$ha, announced that she broke her own fake breasts, and posted a photo of herself with a turtle on her head. At one point took a break from the site - before returning with topless photos of herself.
