When I read the comments after watching the video, I was astounded by the shallow soulless statements and was deeply disappointed. Here is a woman bearing her soul about some serious issues, and so many of you yahoo's are harping on her tattoos, or have this "she was so much hotter in the 80's" mentality. She is a human being who just so happens to be an artist, but her humanity shone through here. I have been a fan of Lita Ford for a long time, and will continue to be a fan, but as a human, I applaud her rediscovery of herself and the courage to escape an abusive relationship. Thanks for such a candid view.

Couldn't have been nicer. Glad to see her standing on her own to feet and to hell with those that try to put or hold her down.

Lita is very Sweet and talendted. I've met her twice, she happened to have a guitar event when I was on vacation in California. Two days later, my wife and I were in Los Angeles. We went into a coffee shop to buy a coffee to go. The place was almost empty but at one of the tables was Lita, alone. I went there, said hi and asked if I could get an autograph. She asked where I was from, probably because of my accent , I'm from Sweden. She asked me to sit down, I said I had been to the event and thought it was good, got an autograph then too and she said she recognized me. Maybe she just wanted to be nice, but she was really super friendly and asked if it was my wife who was at the counter buying coffee (my wife had no idea who Lita Ford is) She asked her to come over and shook hands with her too. We talked for a few minutes then we left her alone. She wished us a nice holiday. A very sweet and down to earth lady...

Jim has refused to tell his side of the story even at his sons' urging. Is it so far-fetched that a man who was controlling every aspect of his wife's life and career--according her-- also controlled his sons the same way?

She obviously likes " alpha males " so her ending up with a control freak was inevitable. She had two kids with the guy and I'm sure he put up with his share of insanity from her as well. As much as she was a talented musician I also can see how she reminds me of the hot chick a guy thinks he wants to be with until you're actually with her and find out how much bullshit she expects you to put with because a ton of other guys are waiting in line to fuck her . You either become a control freak or you fuck her and forgot her . looks like most guys choose to fuck and forget , which is probably what he should have done as well . Then of course she would have been talking about how he was a piece of shit that got her pregnant and didn't take responsibility for his kids. either way she was going to hate him and talk shit.

I think WAY too many roids to get bulked up to intimidate her. Reading between the lines of what she's saying here, he had a very VERY black agenda for her that doesn't sound lilt was going to end well…he's a freak.

My drummer roadied for Lita a while back and all the crew was telling him she was a "kept woman" who couldn't take a piss without his permission. He eventually turned her own kids against her. Both her boys were "mini-me's" of Jim with mohawks and clothing. I felt bad for her - she was so appreciative of my wife and mine love of her music and career. She kept hugging us.

And she is responsible for allowing those young boys to be exposed to the abuser. Shit mom. Selfish woman. She's no pushover or wilted little flower.

sparkymgtow Um no not really. You are painting her with a VERY broad brush. She literally stayed for her kids. She wanted out of the marriage about a year in, but she was pregnant and felt her obligation that the kids have both a mother and father was more important. Sure, there was some enabling on her part, but one has to understand that he was not controlling 24/7. They also lived most of their marriage on a boat in the Bahamas, far from just being able to "walk away". So in a sense she was trapped in her marriage; torn between leaving a control freak and raising her children. When Jim sensed she was looking for a way out, he started turning her boys against her. When he found out she had been talking to people about leaving the marriage, he flew them all to the Bahamas and took everyone's passports, It took some careful arrangements with the US Embassy to get her back the US. Some women DO find themselves stuck in a marriage with little or no way out because of finances or children etc. To paint Lita as asking for it because she stayed, is just ridiculous.

I've always admired Lita Ford for years. I've been a fan of hers since I saw her music videos back in the 1980's. I never knew during her fame back then that she was enduring so much torment. People need to understand that these celebrities (past and present) are at their most admirable... when they expose that in the end, they're human like you and I. Seeing her bare her scars like this over her abusive marriage was painful, yes. However, it also shows that she's human... like you and I and everyone else on this planet. I just wish I could give her a hug and a kiss and tell her, "Thank you for everything. If you ever need a shoulder to cry on, I'm here." (Probably sounds cringey, but whatever.) I can only hope that Lita Ford can fully recover from the mental scars she has bore for so many years.

Lame. I studied astrology well. Lita is a virgo and her husband a scorpio. Everything lita described about her husband is typical male scorpio traits. Controlling, Stalkerish and manipulative. Those are typical Scorpio male traits. Watch videos of what a Virgo Female is like. They are one of the best (if not THE BEST) out of all women for a good honest/loyal/nice/faithful girlfriend/wife. So I totally believe Lita. And not the sh*tty dude. Shania Twain and her husband Mutt Lang was also a Virgo Female & Scoroio Male couple. And look what he did. He left her for her best friend.

Lot of fairly hot rock/metal chics, but Doro Pesch is truly awesome. And yeah she is getting up there too but still looks amazing. She was in Warlock Burning the Witches 1984. Good album and she can wail! Look her up, music is harder than Lita IMO. Though I think she is only a singer.

thorinbane Doro is still gorgeous and her music is outstanding she plays with the Motorhead guys a lot... I think what it is is the metal ladies (outside maybe Lorraine Lewis of Femme Fatale) never felt they needed surgery, they were singers first before scantily clad musicians and therefore don't look plastic nowadays

We NEED people like Lita to keep ROCK alive. I think it's dying. The companies aren't promoting them. The late night talk shows almost never have a legendary name like Lita Ford as the music act. If you want to hear ROCK you go to the radio and hope they have a 60s to 80s hour....what we h ave today is sad. Mostly "opening act"...talent". Legends like Eddie Van Halen recently passing away.....Oct 2020...Bowie before that....Clearance Clemons in 2011.... Same with Motown. R&B. They seem to be on their last legs too. How often do we hear about a R&B legend performing or even being interviewed on a late night talk show? There's no press. No mention. ITs like every one is tired and closing up shop. The majority. Too many. IF they're still working no one knows....or not enough people know.... Lita was/IS a true talent. First time I saw her in the video with Ozzy...I thought "Playboy bunny....HEY she can actually sing metal???!!" WOW!!"....Fallon's people should call LIta's people....get her on the show SOON. :)

Wow! I had always had this image of Lita being a strong independent woman and to hear how she fell into an abusive relationship really made me feel for her. We tend to think of women who end up in these relationships as weak and needy but it looks like it can happen to any woman who just hit’s a bad patch in life and a predatory type of man spots that weakness. So to the women out there I say keep your guard up and don’t let an asshole control your life and to the guys I say watch over your daughters, no matter how strong you think they are there is always an asshole out there waiting for them to slip up and let their guard down. If it can happen to Lita if can happen to any woman. And Lita if you read this all I can say is good for you for having the strength to get out but it’s really sad you had to go through that. Your music has been in my life since I first heard the Runaways way back when I was just a teen in the 70s.
