why alex james is a wanker and you shouldn't stan him: a thread

he's a misogynist. miki berenyi (lead singer of lush) says that he bit her on the bottom. "i remember alex from blur sinking his teeth into my arse and he thought it was hilarious and he thought i'd be really flattered..."

groupiedirt (now defunct forum for rock groupies to share stories) commented that:

he's also just said some gross shit about women in general.

he refused to sign autographs, & damon famously replied "alex, will you stop fucking moaning on about [wanting] a stamp so you don’t have to sign your name on a photograph, these people made you rich!" (thinking back: memories of damon albarn & other friends by patrick murphy)

during the 2019 uk gen election, he tweeted that he ~couldn't bring himself~ to vote for corbyn. darren kalynuk (researcher under john prescott) also said this about him:

he's also generally bitched about the working class, and seems to not care about people unless they're rich. also he holds super expensive food festivals in the country which is just proper tory behaviour.

soooo yeah... i know these aren't #hardhitting but alex overall is a dick who doesn't really care about blur's fans, the working class, or women's safety. there's no reason you should be stanning him. ciao!
