Launched Roger Daltreys career? Lol. I hardly think so
I would LOVE to know who the f*^k thought that something like this would b funny!!!!!!! IT’S NOT!!!!!!!! To the person(s) that thought this crap up & for those who posted this lame POS obviously have a low self esteem & is/are lacking attention & must feel that publicizing a LIE pathetically thinks that this is a clever way to make themselves feel good & bring attention to themselves. Well….CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! While “YOU” made urself feel good & laughed ur happy little ass off, thousands upon thousands of people across America, Britain, & elsewhere who saw & read this garbage started feeling bad for Simon, his wife, family, friends, business partners & endless fans who love & adore Simon on different levels. Maybe, if the news gets out that “YOU” died, people will think it’s a joke, & have no sympathy for ur family & not show up at ur funeral. And ALL this over a SICK joke.
My heart skipped a beat, when I saw this post, people shouldn’t play with someone’s life like that. Simon is one of my favorite people on this planet, a lot of people don’t feel like I do, but he’s a professional and he does his job very well, I’m really thinking about leaving Social Media, it’s too much for me, I don’t get it, how people out here, think shish like this is funny, Love you Simon ❤️
