Sandra is a bitch... i dont give 2 cents for that chick :-/ She stalked him for years and when he finally fell for her, she acted like a fool and trashing him in public :-( Thank gawd they are done... they never really seemed like a thing anyway...

Is it true that thing that she trashed him in public? I already saw pics of her being REALLY RUDE to people, but i never saw this one that everybody talks about.

Really??? Which band? Wanna see it hahaha 

I can't remember the name right now, I have to look around, but recently @Sister and me saw a video of some Canadian guy, total Ville Valo rip off. Straight from DS&BH era. He even said he's inspired by Finnish music, but he didn't mention HIM.

haha here in Brazil, in that fan club i tell you guys (which i always be pissed off now and never liking them again hahaha) they have like "villes valos", it's so funny because they try SO HARD to look like Ville. I have a friend that even copied Ville's tattoos hahaha tell me if you find it! I'll search for it

Jussi: but that’s great, different welcome in different places. Can you compare countries and let’s say media? do they ask anywhere else than in Finland about how much you earn, how much you pay taxes and who’s your girlfriend

Ville: well actually nobody has asked and my girlfriend is hurt that no-one has asked about her

Jussi: don’t lie *laughs*

Ville: they haven’t, people are being really correct, it’s been a long time so maybe people have realized that my own things are my own and music is music and that’s difficult but no, no differences between countries, let’s say some German publications can be a bit more vulgar than others, like you know, but that goes with the territory

 

[lego 44,165]

Jussi: Now that we talk about by-products (not sure if that’s the right word for it), your life is fantastic, great, glamorous and a story of success and everything is wonderful. What do you think when you wake up in the morning to take a piss, you hear rustling in the corners of your house and someone is filming you from the mailbox to put the video on youtube? How the hell do you do it?

Ville: I’ll shout at them that they have a wrong address, Jussi is living that way. *laughs*

Jussi: But isn’t that just freaky? Those people are your fans, so what can you say here to those people who love you and to those few ones who have flipped and are standing on your yard?

Ville: You know if someone has flipped they usually don’t understand that themselves. It isn’t nice that people come to break your privacy and you got to call to the police and they break your windows and stuff like that that has happened. It’s not nice but you got to remember that the people who do that kind of stuff aren’t healthy in their soul or mind or however you want to put it. It’s hard to bully someone or be mean to someone who doesn’t understand that everything isn’t okay. And who am I to say that “everything isn’t okay with you” to someone. But it hasn’t been that bad, I can take care of myself, I’m not that small even though I’m a stick like this. But bullying the girlfriends, that people come to tell that they know this and that, I think that’s not nice, it’s not necessary. If we do music it’s nice to have your own home and own peace and possibly own lover, isn’t it your own thing.

Jussi: Right, right.

Ville: It’s like if you sleep with someone then all of a sudden your music is ****, it’s kind of suspicious, like your band sounded so much better before I knew you’ve slept with her, you know, like these absurd things that make no sense at all.

Jussi: But it gets to different dimensions with you. I’ve asked you as a friend 10 years ago, when I was really confused when one freak was going a bit nuts, and you have them half of the world, in every corner. If I can tell to the listeners… the first time I went to your house 10 years ago, all your windows were covered in black plastic bags because your neighbours were zooming you with their binoculars, the next home, the housing cooperative saw the fire escape ladders off so that people couldn’t climb up and now you live in a ****ing castle. *laughs*

Ville: It’s a tower.

Jussi: But you’re handling it quite well, don’t you ever have a feeling like this is enough and I’m done with this ****?

Ville: I’m done with what?

Jussi: that you’re done with these kind of things, that people come to watch you with binoculars from your mail box. Ville: If you think about the good things that come from this, the libra goes to that end that you want to keep on doing it.

Jussi: okay.

Ville: One thing was really unpleasant; I think it was a year ago, someone, I don’t know who, I don’t do this facebook thing myself or any social media, but someone had convinced himself to be me so well, That one from South America, one from South Africa, couple of girls from East Europe… everyone came to my home door to knock and tell me that we have a relationship. I was thinking that okay one person, something is wrong but then the same things happened over and over. One time during the winter, I went outside and there was a lot of snow and I was thinking who the hell is on my yard with a flashlight, it was a girl who was talking to her cell, I was like “what the **** are you doing here?” The girl said she’s talking with me on the phone. I said “You’re not talking with me, as you can see I don’t have a phone with me.” So there was someone who claimed to be me and told them that it would be romantic if you’d come to my house at 3 am and climb over the back door or something. And the thing is, the ladies don’t piss me off at all, I just think it’s really mean that someone can take advantage of people like that, play with their feelings or how you want to put it. That was one of the weirdest things, the facebook something I don’t know, it was just too bad. And I thought the girls were really great, it took me some time and I met some of them to explain I haven’t wrote them anything cause I’m not on facebook, they didn’t believe me at first and started to cry and got mad and went off. Then three of them… one of them started to tell me that I’ve sent her this and this email and I was like okay, but I don’t know anything about this and I’m really sorry… but yeah it was pretty bad.

Jussi: Plus that these people have spared half of their year’s salary to get to Finland.
Ville: and the point is, those people seemed to be very lovely, the girls were really cute, it just hurt me to see that someone had fooled them like that and they didn’t understand it themselves. I just said that unfortunately it’s not true and I can’t do anything about it, you know, all kind of nonsense like that. 

 

 

@Cocaine Heart   @Slavi  come to read this omg

I had no idea about any of this.

This is a good reason for him to get verified accounts on all social media, so no one can pretend to be him anymore. He could just post promo stuff or get someone to do it for him.

Poor girls. Are they too young and naive? Idk.

Agreed! And he was also so sweet to the girls  he could have just called the police or something, or being rude, not even going there... But he even tried to explain and said sorry himself. I just can't believe how kind he is hahaha

Jussi: There’s no magic in being a rock star anymore.

Ville: If think about making an album, it takes away the mystique. When everything is there for everyone all the time, it’s not interesting anymore. I have never liked all these… what we talked about, like twitter and stuff. They work fantastic if you want to have a connection with your old school mates that you last saw 20 years ago, I’ve understood it’s a brilliant way to do that but no, it’s not my cup of tea.

 

 

Well there's my answer. 

[Sister 9,907]

You know what is great, soon we will have three people in THIS thread that will have seen HIM in concert this year?!!

@Isa @SubRosa @Tjarnalundi

@Isa Will you write up a review of your show, your experience? What was it like, how close were you at the stage, near to Ville? It will be fun and I also want to hear about everyone else's....

I always like when people write up a full experience. Any personal moments, feelings, funny happenings....
