Bad Boys Of Rock

• 23rd Jun 2010

We’ve all been naughty and inevitably a partner, friend or family member finds out. The thing is, if you’re a celebrity music star, the whole world knows before you’ve even finished doing the thing you aren’t supposed to be doing. There are plenty of bad boys of pop and rock – but none top the outlandish antics of Aldous Snow.

George Michael

Lewd conduct in public toilets and falling asleep at the wheel of his car.

Liam Gallagher

Foul-mouthed rants on TV, attacking reporters, charged with assault for head-butting a fan and cautioned for criminal damage.

Pete Doherty

Stealing from his band mates, fleeing rehab clinics, doing time in jail and even being arrested on suspicion of taking drugs into court.

Ozzy Osbourne

Spent a few weeks in prison after being found guilty of burglary, arrested for urinating over a memorial and bit the head off a dove – and a bat.

Aldous Snow

Forced his assistant to smuggle cocaine up his bum through customs.

Whilst over six times the drink-drive limit, he stole a golf buggy and drove it naked on the hard shoulder of the M25 for two miles – in the wrong direction. He told the arresting officer that he’d lost his golf ball after teeing off from the seventh.

After partying all night, he invited 27 people back to his $3,500 per night hotel suite. By the time he checked out, $167,000 damage had been done to the hotel room, eight people were arrested for drug offences and two for inappropriate behaviour with a vacuum cleaner. Snow blamed ‘over exuberance’.

Ten minutes into a live performance in front of 20,000 fans, Aldous spotted an attractive woman with a rather ample bosom in the audience. He stopped mid track and ushered her on stage before walking off with her – he never reappeared.

He painted the word ‘c*ck’ on Mike Hunt’s Porsche (an ex-band member). After being released on bail for criminal damage, he went back to Mike’s house and wrote ‘you grassing c*ck’ on the front of his house. Aldous was re-arrested and sentenced to 100 hours community service and ordered to pay £5,000 damages.
