After 35 years Carly Simon has revealed that she is actually a man and her/his hit song "You're So Vain" was written for her/his then-lover, presidential candidate, John Edwards.
Simon stated that he had lived a lie for too many years and didn't want to face his 75th birthday with this secret locked in his heart.
John Edwards released the following statement when made aware of the fact that he had been outed by Simon.
"Just like there are two Americas, there are two John Edwards. One that pretends to be a champion of the downtrodden, and one that gobbles dick like it's going out of style."
Simon re-released the original version of his hit "You're So Vain" that Nixon's Big FCC Censor Buddies originally forced him to re-write.
"(Son of a mill worker)
You walked with the Democrat party like you were walking onto your yacht
Your hair strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the boys dreamed that they'd be your partner
Your Domestic Partner, and...
You're insane, you probably think this song is about you
You're insane, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?"
When Carly made reference about "Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia
to see the total eclipse of the Sun" in her prophetic song You're So Vain, she was actually channeling John "Breck Girl" Edwards thirty-five years in the future!
Now that's awesome! That does it for me, what an endorsement. I'm voting for Edwards.
