This Christie Brinkley divorce trial is pure gold. Sick, but pure gold. On Wednesday Peter Cook was outed as the child loving perv we all suspected when Christie and Billy Joel's daughter took the stand.
Apparently Peter loved to look at Alexa Ray Joel naked whenever he could. According to the testimony Alexa gave, one time she was taking a shower as a teen and some water from the shower was leaking in the room beneath the shower.
Peter came into the bathroom and made Alexa while naked go downstairs and wipe up the water from the leak. At no time was she allowed to put on clothes while he watched her make sure she wiped up every drop. Now, before today I had never heard this story and I also wonder when it happened because Alexa is like 22 now. Anyway, I hope this is the first time Billy Joel has heard the story because Peter Cook is still alive.
If I had a daughter and some douchebag of a perv had done this to my daughter I'm not sure he would still be living. If Christie or Billy knew about this and didn't do anything about it then I have lost any respect for them at all. I don't have much respect as it is for Billy when it comes to his personal life, but still, he should have been kicking ass and taking names Charles Bronson style.
There is simply no reason other than some kind of perverted fantasy that Peter Cook should have acted the way he did. I also want to make it perfectly clear right now to any woman who decides to date him or be with him in the future, that I will call you out everyday in this blog. If you have any children and decide to date him, my treatment will be even worse. There is no excuse for being with this man or letting your kids anywhere near him and if you do, I will make your life even more miserable than it already is by being with him.
I thought she was quoted as saying that he made her go downstairs in a towel to clean it up? That's not much better, especially because Alexa also said he was pushing her while she walked and also pushed her head into the bucket that was collecting that water.
ReplyDeleteThis guy is unbelievable slime.
HI ENTY!
ReplyDeleteIts been a minute...
I would hope BJ beat that ass unbeknowst to us, maybe he handled it privately.......WE HOPE
Don't get me wrong here, I don't feel any sympathy for this jerk-off (literally), but I think it's wrong of Christy to insist on a public trial and putting her daughter through this. One attorney said this is Christy's revenge pure and simple. She has taken two other kids away from their Father's and now she's doing it to number three. While it makes for good reading on the New York Post, personally I believe Christy should have kept it private.
ReplyDeleteI would have been out the door after this happened if I was Christie that's for sure. Correction and a sense of discipline are important from a step parent to a step child that lives with them but lay a hand on my kid and you'll be picking your crap up off the front lawn... once you wake up from your coma.
ReplyDeleteI can't even discuss the perviness factor ... I mean COME ON! that's a given
ReplyDeleteunless i was like 8 years old, i would not care what my stepfather said. in a situation like that, a robe or towel WOULD have been covering my body. It's not like she needs anything from him, & it sounds maybe like she was a teenager when this happened.
ReplyDeletedid he have a gun to her head?
The New York newspapers said this morning that Christie couldn't stop crying as Alex Ray told this story on the stand. Please - how can Christie subject her children to this? Why make this a public trial? Is she any better than Peter Cook? Wasn't she cheating on Billy with her soon-to-be third husband, Rick Taubman?
ReplyDeleteYep, Carol, and she got pregnant and couldn't marry that guy fast enough. I thought Taubman was hot, but apparently he didn't have the bucks Christy thought he had and she paid him to go away and stay out of the boy's life. Hmm, I guess she got what she paid for.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I'm not defending Cook, but I don't like what Christy is doing with this public divorce trial. Cook seems to have a good legal team, so she might be sorry.
I agree with you califblondy, there is no reason any of this needs to be public. It is a very private matter & could you imagine if you were getting divorced & it was being broadcast on every gossip site?!
ReplyDeletei know you are celebrities, but have some self-respect, people!!!
i say good for her...her kid that took the stand is an adult not a weak child. i love how the women who was cheated on over and over and married to this asshole is getting the stick from people here for her 'revenge'. please.
ReplyDeletedid you ever think maybe she wants the world to know how fucked up he really is to deter it happening again??
well, what about all the other wronged, scorned women of the world?
ReplyDeletethey don't get to tell the world what scum their ex-husbands are.
yes, alexa IS an adult, & can do whatever she wants, like put on a towel!!
Christie doesn't realize that by making this divorce hearing public that she is making herself look really bad -- her fourth divorce and demonstrating yet again her bad taste in men, now with the courtesy of everyone able to know that she willingly married a perv.
ReplyDeletePeter Cook has already admitted to everything he is accused of. And, again, Christie wasn't exactly faithful to Billy Joel. The NY papers today have dozens of pictures of Christie, makeup and hair perfect, crying and sobbing - beautiful victim. I just makes me feel less sorry for her.
ReplyDeleteIT just makes me feel less sorry for her.
ReplyDeleteI suspect he'll claim coke/booze/sex addiction then go to rehab then guest on a reality show then be a correspondent for Entertainment Tonight!
ReplyDeleteBut since some chicks are stupid this will only make him more desireable.
"well, what about all the other wronged, scorned women of the world?
ReplyDeletethey don't get to tell the world what scum their ex-husbands are."
No, they don't, but I imagine a good percentage of them probably get some vicarious satisfaction at seeing another scorned woman get her revenge. I think it's the the same kind of logic that leads to most of the 'soccer moms' being Team Aniston.
We root for the protagonist/against the villains in tv dramas, soaps, and movies all the time so I'm not sure why a real-life drama would end up with everyone rooting against the given protagonist. Could it have been handled privately? Yes, absolutely. Am I mad at her for airing the dirty bastard out for the scumbucket he is? NO. I'm still laughing at the fact that he's $300,000 short for nothing.
I wouldn't say I feel sorry for Christie necessarily. That would require me to actually think about her for longer than it took to read a post about her and type this comment, and I can't say that I do. I'm just saying that there's no reason to feel LESS sorry for her. She is not the first beautiful but not-so-smart woman to marry a bad guy or a string of bad guys, and she won't be the last. So I won't hold it against her for being able to do what a lot of those other women wish they could, but will never have the opportunity.
Ya, unfortunately by the looks of the pictures, Christie is playing it for the the cameras. She had a private room during breaks and Cook was in a public area and made a comment that Christie was probably "in hair and make-up".
ReplyDeletethank you Gayla,well said.
ReplyDeletei really don't understand women who judge other women for things beyond their control...maybe i read this wrong but last i checked Peter Cook was not the victim here.
we have no idea how old Alexa was at the time and saying she could put on a towel is kinda fucking ignorant. IMO.
Billy needs to get in his car and run this douchebag down. He's good at that, right?
ReplyDeleteAnd just FYI: I have a deep, dark, shameful and everlasting love for Billy Joel. In fact, I'm gonna listen to "The Stranger" right now and hope that Christie gets whatever the hell she wants from this dude.
I ALSO think that publicizing the trial is sort of tawdry, but I also think that Christie is sort of justified in her anger and her desire for the world to know exactly how slimy this guy really is. I've never understood why they got together in the first place. He's like this doughy Ken doll, and she STILL looks like an angel.
Totally random, but am I the only one who thinks that Alexa looks like a cross between Mena Suvari and Penelope Cruz?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful girl.
I say 'Good for Christie'. I bet Peter was hoping she wouldn't go to trial and was making a settlement demand that was outrageous. Not only that, HE is the douche here and it is good that someone wants to OUT these jerks. I wish more women would OUT the jerk men that are pervs, wife beaters, etc. Especially in Hollyweird where these men get free passes to do this crap. GO Christie! As for making it public and this not ok? Well, we all say they are in the public eye and make their lives OUR business, right??? When his deeds made the news all bets were off......just saying...
ReplyDeleteBest Quote Ever...
ReplyDelete"I observed Mr. Cook. He was very shaken up and it appeared like he had urinated his pants," Platt said.(the teenagers stepdad )
Platt blew the whistle a few weeks later when he pulled aside Brinkley at a Hamptons ceremony she attended with Cook and shared his suspicions.
Sarah: SPOT. ON. She IS gorgeous, too. I've always thought so. I totally think she inherited the best genes from both parents, and I love that she's musical, too.
ReplyDeleteI think that Alexa and I would be good friends if we, like, went to college together or some shit.
I'm insane. I need to do some work, now.
Christie is as much of a douche as Peter Cook. Period. With this public trial, this is about HER revenge. I can understand her feelings, but her kids should come first. They must be absolutely humiliated to have this play out in public. She's a bad mother.
ReplyDeleteAlso, unless she dumped his ass the very day she learned how he behaved towards Alexis, she's just as guilty as he is.
Wow, Christie can pick 'em. Remember that weird dude she married in the post-Billy Joel days that she divorced because he was a fraud, or something of that order? Billy Joel was the pick of the litter.
ReplyDeleteI agree with ms., if Christie knew about this and didn't drop the goon like a hot potato, then she's lucky Alexa even speaks to her.
such an asshole. he should be booked under sexually harassing a minor.
ReplyDeletethere is no excuse for a step dad to make a child clean up when naked. bastard.
What a vile scumbag...
ReplyDeleteShe is the image of Billy Joel. I have mixed feedings about her going public, but I think she really wants the world to see what a piece of shit he really is.
ReplyDeleteIf Peter thought she would spare him for any reason he was delusional. See exhibit Taubman, Who never saw his son again.
ReplyDeleteIf this story is true and Christy and /or Billy knew it's absolutely horrifying. If the statute of limitations has expired he should be charged with some type of sex abuse charge. Here's a tip, call a plumber not a naked 15 year old if you have a leak.
Actually I didn't think this guy could have anymore ick on him, but he's never getting visitation with those kids. N.E.V.E.R. case over.
I read an interview with Alexa where she said something about having to accept the fact that she'd never be the beauty her Mother is and that made me feel sad. I'm old enough to remember Alexa's Father when he still had hair and was a cute little guy. So, she took after him, she's still an attractive young woman and because I'm fair, I've always loved dark hair and olive skin.
ReplyDeleteCalifblondy-- I used to think it was ironic that with Christie Brinkley as her mom, she ended up with Billy Joel's looks, but she really grew into herself, & is not only beautiful, but extremely talented. And, she manages to stay out of trouble, unlike most her age.!
ReplyDeleteI think she's adorable too, she resembles Billy & has these cute dimples.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry but I have to believe that Christy knew about the thing with Alexa, knew about other things as well but probably let it go since she was in her 4th marriage. I think that the cheating with the teenager was the final straw. Oh god and has anyone seen pictures of the teen?? She is loving every second of it, all done up with her hair pulled back wearing the big giant sunglasses, basking in her 15 minutes of attention as she was walking into the courtroom to testify!! Unbelievable.
And ironic that his lawyers call her 'sick' for making this public while he trolls the net for tweeners!!!!
Alexa's a world-class beauty. Stunning. Much better than her mom's plastic WASPy Barbie doll looks. I never thought Christie was attractive.
ReplyDeleteTaubman's son can do what he wants once he's an adult; if he wants to see his dad, he can.
Closed hearings would be the greatest boon to this sexual pervert. Silence enables. His secrets would be safe. No one would know about him. Forewarned is forearmed.
Enty, you don't retaliate against women who could be potential victims; you take on the perv himself. He's the source of the perversion. If you're not capable of doing that, then call me. I would LOVE to harass this guy. But you leave the women alone.
Everyone knew what a piece of shit Peter Cook was before this trial. It was selfish and stupid of Christie to make a public spectacle out of the trial. Peter Cook is still her daughter's daddy and nothing is going to change that. Poor child will be so embarassed.
ReplyDeleteyes, the kids will be embarassed. Kids are kids and Christie provided excellent verbal weapons for her kids to be teased. There's ways of leaking the information about Peter to ensure the world would learn how scummy he is. This trial is an exercise in showmanship & revenge for Christie.
ReplyDeletei don't think this is just revenge, i think there's something else, we just haven't found out what it is, yet.
ReplyDeleteand i'm NOT ashamed to say i love billy joel--very talented man and a favorite in my cd collection (of course that shows my age). i was thrilled for him when he hooked up with christie, who obviously has some self confidence issues.
anyway, the kids are going to be devastated no matter what, and things will be leaked. my court orders said both parents were to refrain from saying nasty things about the other parent, and so were the families of each parent, etc. etc.
my kid grew up with so many issues because guess who went out of their way to constantly say evil, evil things about me so that he never knew what to do.
if he had been able to know the facts, he would have known the truth and even at a young age could have said something to better his situation, maybe not have to have visatation.
visatation with one parent is NOT always a good thing, guys.
sorry. guess i get a little hot under the collar.
