" People want to see you crashing your car on Quaaludes, not helping the March of Dimes."

Out of context? Maybe, but the tabloidized media would like you to believe it's true ............. The Cap'n

I think the ex-teenybopper was rightfully disillusioned by the fact that our fuched up media would rather concentrate on the crash than efforts to help people... or efforts to resuscitate his deceased career.

"I've done a lot of work with the March of Dimes and lots of other charities. I'm about to perform at a charity event for the American Red Cross for the South East Asia Relief Fund. I still like to do whatever I can for charities."

Jump in the "way-back machine" Sherman (if Leif Garret lost you then Peabody and Sherman are sure to add another dimension to this thread) Leify-Boy crashed his 914 with a passenger in-tow. Fuched up the other guy really good and put the period at the end of the short sentence that was his career.

Grimstead... you're aweiner! biggrin.gif

Um, I believe it was an ass dragger, not a 914 that he crashed and paralysed his buddy.

QUOTE
In 1979, when he was in his late teens, Garrett and his friend Roland Winkler were in Garrett's Porsche 911 when it rear-ended another car and shot over a freeway embankment. "We were friends. And we were both really high. And for some reason we didn't take his car that night. We took my car and ended up getting in a crash and he ended up paralyzed. It's a horrible thing. It was three days before my 18th birthday."

That's what that story said but if you find the pictures and the rest of the stories, I believe it's a teener.

"Then comes the dark stuff. Back in his heyday, at the tender age of 20, Leif paralyzed his best friend/drug buddy while flipping his whoo-hoo Porsche 914 on the Santa Monica freeway. The friend's insurance company sued the star, and Garrett abandoned ship on the buddy thing. But wouldn't you know, Behind the Music is going to reunite them! Meeting his former friend in a park, Leif cries as his disabled and discarded buddy says the words he's been waiting to say for 10 years: "You ready for a bomb? You saved my life that day." It's the worst moment in VH1's most depressing biography ever, even worse than the scene where Nicolette Sheridan--the girl Garrett has been obsessing over since they broke up a decade ago--stages an intervention to get him into rehab. Even the Milli Vanilli story, filmed before Rob Pilatus' suicide, is less mortifying."
