Macca denies Lennon gay claims

Paul McCartney has disputed claims in Philip Norman's book 'John Lennon: The Life' that Lennon wanted a sexual relationship with him, telling The Sun they are untrue.

Paul McCartney has disputed those previously reported claims by author Philip Norman in his new book 'John Lennon: The Life' that John Lennon wanted to have a sexual relationship with him.

McCartney told The Sun: "I don't think [the gay claims] are true. John never ever tried anything, I slept with him a million times. I've seen him on tour roaring drunk, out of his mind in the early days before he sobered up and went to rehab. Roaring drunk and it was always with a female. If you've got a little gay tendency and your roaring drunk I'd have caught him once".
