Mon Dieu!

Good grief - Iggy Pop wears Crocs in Cannes shocker!

No - you are not allowed to laugh at the stack shoe as he has one leg quite a bit shorter than the other and a really bad back. He may be the only person in the world I have to force myself to forgive for wearing such abominable footwear.

  1. Ha, my very first love who I've not seen since I was 15 had one leg short leg.
    God I remember I joking about it which she didn't app. but in my own stupid way I was trying to say (which I couldn't say it in words)i love you more than anything and it makes no difference.

    She ran off to Australia with another guy.

    I was never the same again.

  2. He's very gnarly isn't he. Out of professional interest did he lose a bit of his leg or did he never have it?

    Momo Madster - oh no that is so sad I want to cry - if only there were more nice people in the world like you. Well, she obviously didn't deserve you if she didn't understand what you meant.

    Realdoc - he had a sporting injury as a kid, did a stage dive and landed on an amp instead of fans and busted his hip at some point. He also has a twisted spine - the combination of injury, twisted spine and bone-withering age has shortened his leg considerably over the years. When I met him he looked pretty amazing for his age although he is a bit gnarly-jointed yes but in good shape for 63 and having 'been around the block once or twice' bless him.

    Too late, I laughed. Who'd have thought you could get orthopaedic crocs? I wonder if you can get big, Forest Gump, leg-brace crocs.

    Guess that explains the classic Iggy posture over the years - hands behind head, hips thrust sideway.
