John Lennon
The Beatles are widely seen as the greatest band of all time. One of their central figures, John Lennon, lived a life full of controversy and misconduct. He regulary abused his first wife, Cynthia, eventually writing about it in songs like “Run For Your Life” and “Getting Better”. He made homophobic and anti-Semetic remarks to the Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein, and beat someone up who wondered if Lennon himself was gay. And he cheated on his final wife Yoko Ono with a woman named May Pang, whom he tried to strangle before being stopped.
