Personal life
Tucker was married in the early 1970s, and divorced some time in the early 1980s. She has five children: Kerry, Keith, Austen, Kate, and Richard. Tucker lives in Douglas, Georgia, where she raised her family. In a 2010 interview, she said she had ceased making music several years prior, saying caring for her grandson was a “full-time job”.
In April 2009, Tucker gave an interview at a Tea Party rally in Tifton, Georgia, to a WALB NBC news crew. She voiced support for the Tea Party movement and said she was “furious about the way we’re being led towards socialism”. On the official “Tea Party Patriots” website, Tucker stated: “I have come to believe (not just wonder) that Obama’s plan is to destroy America from within.”

I had no idea.
Lou Reed was pretty cool though from what I know. Some of his stuff isn’t up to the expectations of 2022 in terms of terminology, but it was pretty progressive for the 60s.
EDIT: Nevermind
I’ve never heard anything bad about John Cale either.
Lou “I’ll let you interview me if you shit on my chest, or you could talk me down to me lying under a glass top table that you shit on” Reed
there was a biography released a few years ago that said he was extremely violent towards his girlfriends and wives

If they weren’t bad, they wouldn’t be able to be or allowed to be famous.
