Twisted Sister's Dee Snider Debunks Rock Star Myth
. (Classic Rock) Dee Snider has set about debunking the myth of rock stars as disloyal womanisers. The Twisted Sister frontman has been with his wife Suzette, a costume designer, for 38 years. Snider tells Mitch Lafon: "As a young man I had an odd wisdom about finding someone who loved me for me before I knew I was gonna become famous. She thought I was a nice guy and I turned that into a 38-year relationship. "In the 80s that's when I became a megalomaniac and nearly destroyed everything, my band and relationships and it nearly ended up in a divorce because I wasn't a nice guy. "But that's been a major job for Suzette over the years, to be the one who says, 'No, that doesn't look good.' She's not always right, she didn't like We're Not Gonna Take It, I just wanted to point that out. But she is right a lot, a good 95% of the time and she's always been a really good sounding board for me. "I was talking with Kevin Bacon and I said to him, 'You've had a long relationship with Kyra, what do you attribute that to?' And he said, 'You just don't hear about the successes, only the failures.' I started to think about it and started putting a list together, and it's f***ing long. It's a long list of successful entertainment relationships in rock 'n' roll, in theatre and in movies." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
