NY DAILY NEWS/MITCHELL FINK....

This has been quite a week for Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. His band was inducted
into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he has been all over TV and the group's
latest single, "Jaded," looks like a smash.

For Tyler's former wife, Cyrinda Foxe-Tyler, the week hasn't been so good. The
48-year-old Foxe-Tyler watched her ex cavorting all across the TV dial this
week from her Beth Israel hospital bed, where she's recovering from a stroke
suffered last week.

According to Danny Fields, who co-wrote Foxe-Tyler's memoir, "Dream On," the
mother of Tyler's plus-size model daughter, Mia, was house-sitting on Staten
Island when the stroke came on.

"She is homeless, she has no visible means of support and now she's in a
hospital and partially paralyzed," says Fields. "And aside from Mia, who
doesn't visit her, the only things Cyrinda got out of her marriage to Steven
Tyler were drug addiction, hepatitis and a house in New Hampshire that was
falling into a lake." A spokesman for Tyler had no comment at press time.

i of course feel awful for anyone who's hospitalized or had a stroke or
whatever. but her marriage also got her a famous name and a book deal. where
are the royalties? oh, and why doesn't her daughter visit her? how did she
manage to avoid getting any support from steven? something's very odd here.

And I'll bet she wonders why they can't all be friends.

Actually, she was a well-known NY actress who gave up her career to move to NH
with Steven - obviously a bad idea in hindsight.

She got screwed over by his lawyers in the divorce. I do wonder about the
daughter, though. Both Mia and Liv were in audience for the HOF show Monday
night, along with Steven's youngest daughter, who looks exactly like the older
ones.

According to her book, at least some of it was. I've know Danny Fields for 20
years, and I wish he would post here - he has great stories about the Andy Warhol
crowd.

Why are you so hostile to this woman? I'm an Aerosmith fan from way back, but
I've heard too much about his drug use to doubt that he would abuse his wives.
And he wouldn't be the first wealthy man to hire high-powered lawyers to screw
his ex out of a piece of his royalties. I'm sure she's made mistakes, but it
sounds like she's suffered enough for them.

It goes back to her David Johanssen days.

She also hits my 'not my fault' button. There's no doubt in my mind that life
with Steven in the good old bad old days had to suck, but even Pamela Anderson
had the brains to pack it in before she or the kids were damaged beyond repair.
You might argue it was all Steven's fault and I might argue that she could
have flipped him off with both hands and gone to turn her life around.
Different point of view, that's all.

Danny was also very good friends with Linda McCartney and wrote a book about her.
He was the co-author of that "Who's Your Fave Rave?" book about Sixteen magazine
that we talked about here when it came out.

I just feel bad when I hear about these women who had it all when they were
younger but their lives turned out so badly. Like the one in the LA Times last
month, the actress I remembered from when we were both young and now she's on the
streets and/or in jail. I just wonder how and where they went wrong.

Gloria Stavers was the editor, I think. Man, I lived on 16 magazine for a
little while there. Then I found a place that carried Rolling Stone (in the
quarter fold days) and read both thereby hurting my mind severely and probably
accounting for my quirky personality to this day.

Oh, and National Lampoon. Loved that. No wonder I'm just not right.

I think, and this is only my opinon and pet theory, is that they developed the
external and ignored the internal. There's nothing at all wrong with being
beautiful but, let's face it, it fades. If all someone has going for them is
their face and body they have to be made to understand that sooner or later,
despite all medical advances, they're not gonna be cute and 25 any more. There
are beautiful people who have interests and develop themselves both in and out.
If you do that you get Lauren Hutton or Stefanie Powers or Leslie Caron. [I
LOVE her] If you don't you wake up and you're Melanie Griffith who is not
somebody I'd care to be.

Cyndira's biggest bit of bad luck--and I do believe bad luck was a factor
too--is that she divorced Steven when he was flat broke and not worth a nickel.
Bit of an exaggeration there, but it was before he turned himself around. Then
he got clean and they did Pump and they were back. Bad luck on her part,
truly, or bad timing. It's interesting in most or many stories of the
they-had-it-all-and-then-they-pissed-it-all-away genre how much bad timing had
to do with it. Men and women. Pick the wrong project at the wrong time, turn
down the right project, go right instead of left and it all turns to shit.

I also like rural blues songs and the old bluesmen knew that luck and timing
can be your friend or your enemy.

During the 60s and 70s, yes. Danny and his co-author were16 editors
after Gloria.

I liked Tiger Beat better. Years later, I worked for the publisher of TB
and ran across the proof sheets and negs of some of the photos I had
drooled over back then.

Totally agree. Using drugs, smoking and drinking when you're young
doesn't help either.

Me neither.

Yep. But since she was his legal wife and had his child, she should have
been entitled to *something.* She needed a better lawyer, IMHO.

Actually, they did Permanent Vacation and they were back. They were
already back on top when Pump came out.

i'm from nyc and the only 'acting' i've heard about was when she was in one
warhol movie. maybe i'm too young to remember her in her 'heyday' but i do know
she achieved most of her fame because of who, rather than what, she did.

What cracks me up about Leif Garrett is that, honestly, the kid made a ton of
money on what seems to have been very little talent. The kid doesn't seem to
get that using heroin doesn't make you Eric Clapton; talent makes you Eric
Clapton. The heroin use part is bad.

Some things are just intrinsically wrong. If Britney and Leif did mate and
spawn my choice of baby gift would be three years of pre paid therapy.

Only three??? Maybe we should all boot in some for therapy. Perhaps 25
years might do it.
