KEITH RICHARDS DIDNT REALLY DO IT

Yesterday the internet went all apeshit with reports quoting Rolling Stones guitarist (and Pirates of the Caribbean co-star/muse) Keith Richards as saying that he once snorted the ashes of his father during a drug binge.  Richards said:

 "The strangest thing I've tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father. He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared … It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive."

But yesterday MTV followed up with Richards manager, who said it wasn’t true.  They say:

In a buzz-killing mood, though, we decided to check with Richards' longtime manager, Jane Rose. We asked her about the dad-snorting quotes in the NME interview. She responded with an e-mail:  "Said in jest," she explained. "Can't believe anyone took [it] seriously."

Whatever.  That dude did it.  She probably had to say he didn’t because ingesting dead people would seemingly be illegal.  And what the hell was she supposed to say anyway?   “Yeah, he snorted his dad.  He also made a bong from his skull, used his arms to do a funny octopus thing and used his penis as a doorstop”.
