Growing Up To Be Julian Lennon

Julian Lennon’s life has been as normal as a country-and-western Motley Crue album, as an outburst of David Lee Rothian modesty, as a Simon Le Bon boat trip that doesn’t end up on the rocks! It’s surprising Julian isn’t all washedup, with the things he’s been through: hidden by his mom, first wife of the Beatles’ John Lennon, back in a time when pop stars were meant to have the love life of a “Ken” doll, then exposed to the world in a glare of publicity when British reporters camped on his front lawn to reveal the news that his father had been murdered.
