Wed 3rd Dec - 11:30PM
Shock rock pioneer whose on-stage antics caused outrage across the world. As he battled with drink and drugs, his career took a nose dive until 'Wayne's World'. We're not worthy!
Alice Cooper
born: 04-02-1948
birth place: Detroit, USA
- He is an avid golfer, and has participated in several celebrity tournaments.
- While Cooper was playing a stadium show in the 1970s, a fan threw a live chicken on stage. Cooper, who's from Detroit and unfamiliar with farm animals, generally assumed that since the chicken had wings, it would be able to fly. So he grabbed the chicken and tossed it into the air, thinking it would fly out of the stadium, when in fact it went straight down into the crowd, who ripped the bird to pieces. The parts were thrown back on stage, and the headlines later claimed that Cooper bit the head off the chicken, and drank its blood. Frank Zappa later advised Cooper not to tell the real story, simply because "everybody loves it!".
