For me the biggest shocker of the past week is not that Mackenzie Phillips willingly had sex with her own father, but that she actually gets laid. And consequently fucked a famous person, who just happened to be her father.
Not only that, but she “allegedly” also had sex with Mick Jagger in the late 70’s after a drug induced tuna fish sandwich making episode (I’m not joking). Initial thoughts: What could be more disgusting than screwing an 88 lb acne scarred Shelly Duvall lookalike with tuna breath? I keep telling myself that Mick must have mistaken her for Ronnie Wood. This scenario makes sense at least.
Back to the incest. Drugs can obviously drive a man to do wrong, wrong, very wrong things. If the claims are true, then Papa John Phillips was a terribly messed up individual. I mean, if he was going to try to screw around with any of his kids, why not Chynna, the pretty one?

Drugs really DO fuck with your senses, people.

I admit, Mackenzie has a pretty intriguing story to tell. I personally find the genre of “1970’s B list TV actress with a history of drug abuse and sexual confusion compounded by a raging jealousy of Valerie Bertinelli” compelling. I will probably read every article on subject. Entertainment Tonight has already blown the dust off of every Bonnie Franklin interview from 1981, and even showed an excruciating segment of Eddie Van Halen and Valerie celebrating their 1st wedding anniversary while wearing matching head bands.
The truth is this-Mackenzie Phillips wrote a memoir no one would read outside of her AA sponsor and maybe Schneider from “One Day at a Time.” Revealing a major scandal involving a dead guy who can’t defend himself (or concur) is a genius maneuver in becoming relevant again. You gotta appreciate the spirit of a washed up fame whore. Someone who is not afraid to air dirty laundry at any expense, possibly make up some shit, maybe even ruin your family’s life (and in this case, your father’s musical legacy)in order to get some face time. So what if everyone thinks you are an immoral perverted skank deviant sicko? You got on Oprah!!
