Disgraced rocker Gary Glitter is facing more legal woes after a British aristocrat accused him of raping her when she was just 15 years old. Vanessa Grey has kept the alleged abuse a secret for 17 years because she was too ashamed to speak out about it - but she has finally broken her silence in an effort to convince authorities to ban the fallen star from returning to his native U.K.
Glitter - real name Paul Gadd - is currently serving a three-year sentence in a Vietnam prison after he was convicted in 2006 of committing obscene acts with two Vietnamese girls, aged just 11 and 12. But Gadd is reportedly set for an early release later this year - and Grey, now 32, is disturbed by the thought of the 63-year-old becoming a free man. Grey claims she first met Glitter in 1990 when she was 14 and was lured onto the star's luxury yacht on several occasions, where he often plied her with champagne. On one occasion, when she was drunk, she alleges Glitter forced her downstairs into the boat's cabin and performed a sex act on her - but was too "confused and vulnerable" to understand what was happening. Weeks later, Grey claims Glitter invited her to his house, where he again gave her champagne and coaxed her into the bedroom before raping her. She says, "Before I knew what was happening he had grabbed my head and forced it towards his crotch. I was numb with fear. I wanted him to stop and let me go. He was a man of 46 with painted eyebrows and bad breath and he stole my virginity... After that I never saw Glitter again. I was too ashamed and afraid to tell my parents. I ran away from home at 16 because I felt so sick and was scared Glitter was around every corner." Grey has now told her story to the British authorities in the hope of bringing further charges against the singer. She adds, "Thinking about what Glitter did to me still terrifies me. He left part of me permanently damaged. But the rape made me so utterly ashamed that it is only now - when I heard that he might be coming back to Britain - that I feel strong enough to tell police about my past." |

I absolutely agree. How this man is allowed to get an early release is beyond me. |

Get this washed-up jerk to a jail cell for life, already. How he ever gets away this is beyond. He should get a restraining order or vanish into Mars. This guy is a sicko pervert.

So have they stopped using his "Rock & Roll Part 2" as a sports theme jingle yet?

I have to agree with a comment of one of his videos on YouTube.... he's a musical pariah and you'll never heard Rock And Roll on classic rock stations and football games have banned it, but yet R. Kelly and Michael Jackson still are revered when they've done the same thing? It doesn't make sense. Yes, R. and MJ certainly have more extensive catalogs of hits (since in America Gary's a one hit wonder, and Joan Jett's version of "Do Ya Wanna Touch Me" was much bigger than his), but a pedophile is a pedophile

I couldn't stand that song of his to begin with, and now it is even worse to hear it.
It is obvious this guy is a pedophile and once a pedophile, always a pedophile. It never goes away. It is what they are. He used his fame to lure young girls and got away with it obviously too many times. For every victim that comes out, imagine how many haven't?
