Paul Simon Arrested For Domestic Violence

Paul Simon and his wife Edie Brickell were arrested over the weekend by police in Connecticut and charged with domestic violence. As you read this the couple is being arraigned. Apparently it was a huge mess outside the courthouse because it is not everyday you get Paul Simon doing a perp walk. The couple have been married for about two decades. They have three children together which matches the number of marriages Paul Simon has had.

  2. Is this one of the 50 ways?

  3. Shouldn't Edie's name be in the headline as well? Right now it reads like a one-sided attack, when the text indicates that both were charged.

    1. @ Nutty, perhaps we are the only ones that think Edie ranks as high, ( not that she could touch Simon and Garfunkel, but his solo.,)
      Nah, male= battery
      Sexist bastard.

  7. Shit, I saw her singing with Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers last week. She looked so happy and sounded pretty good. Paul Simon is probably the one artist whose concerts I've seen the most. Dayum.

  9. Reports elsewhere are that charges changed to disorderly conduct.

  10. I've know her for thirty years. She's totally sweet but there no way in hell he's going to throw a punch at her without her coming out swinging. If she got arrested for defending herself, well that just really blows.

  14. Maybe she tried to take his Kodachrome away.

  15. Domestic violence is no laughing matter people. I am leaving, I am leaving (and the fighter still remains).

  16. I agree Nutty and I am glad to see the police did indeed lay charges vs both if they were both being violent to each other.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Holy Crap! I thought they were just gently hippy people. Bad on whoever hit first.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Charges downgraded hmmm would they be if your names weren't Paul Simon and Edie Brickell?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh for crap sakes gentle hippies

  20. Wasn't there a blind recently about her cheating on Paul with their kid's teacher?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Rise above this guys, take a trip to Graceland.
    @CridChild, is that the final consensus? It was Edie in the schoolhouse

    ReplyDelete
  22. @steam, Edie in the schoolhouse with the lead pipe? :-D
    That might be the reason, right there. I guess the parent teacher conference gave it up..

    ReplyDelete
  23. Could be Steam, we are both Taurus.

    Happy Birthday.

  24. Oh happy birthday Steampunk!

    There's got to be more to this story. They probably had a verbal fight and threw things but no one was beating on the other. I hope. Don't see either on being violent. But in domestic issues they always arrest both.

    Nice play on words all...

  26. She asked him again, "Are you what you are? Or what?". He snapped.

    I must have seen the New Bohemians at least 50 times in Dallas between 1985-1995. Great band.

  27. Thanks sherry, it Been a good day!

  28. I love his music, but he has a reputation in the music business as a douche. I know for a fact that after 9/11 when they were putting together that benefit concert in NYC, that he was the only one that had crazy demands. Everyone else checked their egos and said I'll be there whenever, and he refused to participate unless he got to close the show ans sang the songs he wanted among other things.He finally calmed down but it I remember thinking how his public persona is so different from who he really is.
    Maybe she did cheat, but I think the blame is on him.

  29. Paul and Carrie Fisher used to go at it pretty hard as well.

    Happy B-Day Steampunk ! ! !

  30. Dis con charges only. No domestic violence. That usually means a ruckus, not an actual fight.

    ReplyDelete
  31. One good thing has come out of this. I dug up my cassette bootleg recordings I used to make of New Bohemian shows & they are all getting a digital makeover. Maybe I'll put them on youtube for the dozen remaining New Bohemians fans to enjoy.

  32. Rhody, I've heard the same thing .

  33. He probably beat her up for singing that damned song one too many times! ;)

  34. 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover was inspired by The fabulous Shelley Duvall, btw.

  35. Still crazy after all these years...

  36. I wonder if they will now kick Paul out of the 5-Timers Club?

    ReplyDelete
  37. I just cant. I love this man's music, hus charities, his humanity. I have to lay down now.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Love that skit JBE.

  39. @TTM: You want my SS# too? I can't give specific identifiable info on a public forum like this. There are still loons lurking in the shadows. It is next week some time.

    If any chicks would like to gift me buttcheek selfies, or any other sort of fappable selfie, they still have time. Don't forget to write "COUNT" or "JERKULA" or something of that nature on yourself, so I know you didn't slip me a Google Image Search find. Eyeliner or lipstick you no longer like the color of work best.

    1. Easy there, Tiger. I'm sure there's a search engine out there that can find people based on a Day/Month date and a penchant for buttcheek selfies, but I bet you're the only one that knows how to use it.

      Happy secret birthday next week! I hope you are gifted with many, many pictures of random bums.

      But use the forward-facing camera and timer, ladies! It's 2014!

  42. Weren't they the popular guess for a blind a couple of weeks ago?

    ReplyDelete
  43. This came as a surprise. And I read the blind a couple of weeks ago.

    Sad that he's a douche.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Maybe she took his Kodachrome away?

    Ok, that was bad but still. lol! I don't know any of the deets, but I have heard he is an uberdouche, so I'm gonna blame him.
