Who is Lori Maddox?

Lori Mattix, also known as Lori Lightning and Lori Maddox, was born in Los Angeles, California USA on 29 November 1958 – her zodiac sign is Sagittarius, and she holds American nationality. Lori’s a former model and ‘baby’ groupie, who attracted a lot of attention in 2015, when she claimed that she was 14 when she lost her virginity to the late British singer-songwriter David Bowie, who was 26 at that time.

Early life and education

Lori has kept details of her family away from the media’s attention, but it’s known that she was raised alongside her sisters (their number remains unknown) by their mother who worked at a nightclub; because Lori hasn’t spoken of her father, it’s widely believed that he wasn’t around while she was growing up.

She led a rather normal life until she turned 13, when she was magnetized by the rock ‘n’ roll scene. Lori then befriended Sable Starr, the ‘queen of the groupie scene’ who was the leader of the young girls who had fallen in love with popular musicians, and wanted to date and sleep with them. Leading a normal life and going to school during workdays, Lori spent the weekends visiting clubs on Sunset Strip with Sable, spending most of their time at Rodney Bingeheimer’s English Disco, Whisky A Go Go and Rainbow Bar and Grill.

Lori hasn’t spoken about her education, and it remains unknown if she has even completed high school.

Interview with the online media website “Thrillist”

It was in 2015 that Lori gave an interview to “Thrillist”, less than a year before David Bowie passed away. In the interview, she claimed that she had had sex with a number of celebrities prior to turning 16, and we’re going to mention some of them.

Lori and David Bowie

According to Lori, she was 14 years old when she met David who was touring around the USA at that time; it was Sable who had helped both of them meet the famous singer. Five months after that encounter, David returned to Los Angeles, and on the night before he was to perform at the Long Beach Arena (March 1973), his bodyguards were allegedly sent to pick up Sable and Lori so that they could have sex together.

According to Lori‘s interview with “Thrillist”, the girls were taken to his hotel room where they had a threesome, which was also how Lori lost her virginity. Sable was also interviewed about that night, and she described it rather differently, claiming that it was only her who had sex with David, and that Lori wasn’t at the hotel at all.

Lori also gave an interview to the British rock journalist Paul Trynka, different from the one she had given to “Thrillist”, claiming that she and Sable had sneaked into David’s hotel and found him exhausted in his room, and that they managed to persuade him to have sex with them.

Lori’s claims have been called into question by many people, as she often contradicts herself in the interviews she gives; it’s believed that she was already in a relationship with Jimmy Page, a British musician and Led Zeppelin’s guitarist, when she allegedly had sex with David, which would mean that she wasn’t a virgin at all when she slept with David. In yet another interview, Lori claimed that she actually lost virginity with Jimmy.

Lori and Jimmy Page

According to Lori, she was 13 years old when she started dating Jimmy Page, in June 1972. They met when Led Zeppelin performed in Los Angeles during their North American tour that year, and according to an article published by the American monthly magazine “Rolling Stone”, Jimmy took extra measures to make sure that nobody would find out about their relationship, because Lori was underage and he could’ve been arrested for statutory rape.

Peter Grant, who was at that time Led Zeppelin’s manager, urged Jimmy to keep Lori locked in a hotel room, while a security guard stood in front of the door while the band was performing. Lori claimed that she didn’t travel with the band because it was too risky, but that Jimmy often flew to Los Angeles between his concerts, in Led Zeppelin’s private jet The Starship.

A year into their relationship, Jimmy became more open about it, and allowed Lori to be with him in public, and attend his concerts. Lori claims that she broke up with Jimmy when she was 16, and found him in bed with the American model and singer Beverle Lorence ‘Bebe’ Buell, however, Bebe has claimed that Jimmy broke up with Lori after he began seeing her.

It’s believed by some Led Zeppelin biographers that the lines of their song “Sick Again” are about Lori; these read ‘One day soon you’re gonna reach sixteen, Painted lady in the city of lies’. The song’s writer – Led Zeppelin’s singer Robert Plant – has claimed that he wrote the song for the underage groupies in general.

Lori and Mick Jagger

Lori also claims that she was 17 when she started a relationship with the British singer-songwriter and actor Mick Jagger, who was 32 years old at that time. She claims that they’d met in 1975, when Mick was at a recording session with Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney and John Lennon, however, this has since been brought into question, because it’s known that Paul and John had only met to record a year earlier, and that Mick wasn’t present.

Other people whom Lori claims to have been with

Lori claims that she has also been with the British rock guitarist Geoffrey Arnold ‘Jeff’ Beck of The Yardbirds, the British rock musician Ronald David ‘Ronnie’ Wood of The Rolling Stones, and the late British drummer Mickey Finn of T-Rex.

She has also spoken about having slept with the late Scottish musician James Stewart Bain, the British drummer Carl Frederick Kendall Palmer, and the late British keyboardist Keith Noel Emerson.

Lori has talked about how she also had a threesome with David and his former wife Angela Bowie.

Where is Lori today?

Lori prefers to stay away from the media’s attention today, except for when she’s giving interviews about her sexual experiences with celebrities.

She’s today a partner at West Hollywood’s Glam Boutique, which presumably gives her an income, but her net worth is unknown, nor from where she may have previously made her money; perhaps one could make an educated guess!?

Chelsea is currently residing with her family in Agoura Hills, California.

During her time in college, she was very active in sports, particularly soccer, and played for the university’s team. Additionally, Chelsea was a member of the sorority Phi Kappa Pi.

Career

Chelsea launched her career in 1988, appearing in two episodes of the sitcom “Fuller House”, and portraying Greek businesswoman Kristina Andropolous in the daytime soap opera “Days of Our Lives”. During the same year, she made an episodic appearance in the sitcom “Who’s the Boss”.

After portraying minor parts in the series “Cheers” and “Booker”, Chelsea landed her role as Kate McDonald, girlfriend of Michael “Mike” Seaver, played by Kirk Kameron in the sitcom “Growing Pains”. The show, which follows the Seaver family of five and their everyday struggles, premiered in September 1985 and concluded in April 1992.

Chelsea was introduced in the fifth season, and continued starring through seven in a total of 22 episodes; the show also stars Alan Thicke, Joanna Kerns and Tracey Gold. Upon premiering, the series scooped positive reviews and numerous viewers, becoming one of the most popular sitcoms in the ‘80s. In addition to commercial success, the show received several nominations and awards, spawned several spin-offs, and was aired in over 10 countries, including Taiwan, New Zealand, and Germany.

In 1990 Chelsea made her movie debut playing Penelope in the movie “Instant Karma”, followed by her minor role in the film “The Willies”. In 1991, she was cast as Carrie Lee in the made-for-TV movie “A Little Piece of Heaven”, sharing the screen with her co-star from “Growing Pains” Kirk Cameron, Jussie Smollett and Ron McLarty.

Two years later, she made a one-episode appearance in “Doogie Howser” followed by a role in the TV film “Star Struck”. In 1995 she booked the part as one of the main characters, Elizabeth Waters, in the sitcom “Kirk”, which revolves around Kirk Hartman played by Kirk Cameron. The idea for the show sprang from his successful and notable seven-year role as Mike Seaver in “Growing Pains”, in collaboration with Bickley-Warren Productions and Warner Bros. The series ran for two seasons before it was canceled.

After her minor appearance in the series “Seinfeld”, she portrayed Alison Taylor in the 1998 TV film “You Lucky Dog”.

Chelsea kicked off the new millennium reprising her role as Kate in the comedy reunion film “Growing Pains Movie”, alongside other cast members.

Chelsea also booked the role of Hattie Durham in the religious thriller film “Left Behind”, based on the eponymous novel by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. Despite receiving negative reviews and a poor performance at the box office, the movie was followed by two sequels, “Left Behind: Tribulation Force”(2002) and “Left Behind: World at War”(2005), in which she reprised her role as Hattie.

In 2004 she again portrayed Kate in the second reunion entitled “Growing Pains: Return of the Seavers”. In 2008 Chelsea had a minor part in the Christian drama film “Fireproof”. Her latest role was in the 2014 drama/family film “Mercy Rule”, again sharing the screen with her husband Kirk Cameron, playing his on-screen love match.

Personal life

Not much is known about her dating history. She and six-years-younger Kirk Cameron met on the set of “Fuller House”, when he was accompanying his younger sister Candace Cameron who starred in the show.

They soon started a romantic relationship, which became even stronger after they began playing on-screen love interests in “Growing Pains”. Eventually they became engaged, and on 21 July 1991 they walked down the aisle in a small ceremony at the historic chapel in Cheektowaga, New York. Reportedly, Chelsea’s brother David was the best man, while his wife Heidi was the maid of honor. After the ceremony, they had a small reception at a country club, and went on a honeymoon in Vermont.

They Have Six Children

They have welcomed four children, of which two are their biological children, while the other four were adopted. The couple first adopted four children of mixed races: Jack (born in 1996), Isabella in 1997, Anna in 1998, and Luke in 2000), and then had their biological offspring. Chelsea explained the reason behind this decision in an interview, saying: ‘We decided to adopt our first ones so they would always know they were our first choice – that they were our first babies.’

In 2001 they welcomed their daughter Olivia, and in 2003, Chelsea gave birth to James. Considering that Chelsea is an adopted child herself, she has always had a passion for adoption and great love for children. Talking to a media outlet, she revealed: ‘I love being a mother. It’s the most fulfilling thing.’ Chelsea is also an avid advocate for adoption, as it’s one of the most fundamental Christian beliefs.

After marrying Kirk, she focused on home-schooling and raising their children, with active involvement in various charitable organizations too.

Talking to a media outlet, Chelsea disclosed that she had always admired the marriage her parents had, and had always aspired to duplicate that vision of matrimony, saying: ‘They were married 36 years, and Kirk and I know that we can get through anything with our foundation of faith and family.’

Given that both Chelsea and Kirk are avid and passionate Christians, they credit their faith and the Lord for the health and the success of their 22-year marriage, adding that having and raising children strengthened their bond.

What is her net worth?

According to sources, her estimated net worth is $5 million, which she’s earned through her career as an actress. On the other hand, her husband’s wealth is in the range of $10 million, also acquired through being an actor. It is believed that her roles in “Growing Pains” and the trilogy “Left Behind” were significant contributors to her current modest fortune.

Physical stats and Trivia

Chelsea is 5ft 7ins tall (170cm), weighs around 115lbs (52kgs), with vital statistics of 32-26-32. Her natural hair is light brown, while over the years, she’s dyed it blonde; her eyes are brown.

Kirk and Cameron co-founded the charitable “Firefly Organization”, which raises funds to aid research and develop programs for prolonging brain health. The organization also runs Camp Firefly, which allows terminally-ill children to spend a free vacation week with their families at their headquarters. The idea behind the camp sprang from Cameron’s experience working with sick children during his acting career.

Chelsea often played her husband’s kissing double in his other movies per his request. Kirk actually insisted on having his wife do these cameo appearances, as he did not want to kiss other women, even on screen.

Is she active on social media?

It appears that Noble is not a fan of social media and doen’t use Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. On the other hand, her husband is quite popular on his Instagram account, which boasts nearly 500,000 followers.

Briefly about Cameron

Born in Panorama City, California, Kirk began his career in the entertainment business at the age of nine, appearing in various commercials. He made his TV debut aged 11, portraying Liam in the made-for-TV film “Goliath Awaits”. In the following four years, he switched between roles in TV series and movies, including “Two Marriages”, “Lou Grant”, and “More Than Murder”. In 1985 he landed his most recognized role, as Mike Seaver in the sitcom “Growing Pains” which catapulted him to stardom, as one of the most popular actors in the ‘80s and ‘90s.

In 1995, he was cast as Kirk Hartman, the main character in the sitcom “Kirk”. In the new millennium, he withdrew from mainstream TV, but still reprised his part as Mike in the two reunion movies for “Growing Pains”. Except for a couple of roles, he mostly appeared in religious films, including the “Left Behind” trilogy, and “Saving Christmas”. His last appearance was in 2019 in the Netflix series “Fuller House”.

Besides his acting career, Kirk has also established himself as an evangelistic minister – in 2002, he co-founded the organization “The Way of the Master” with his fellow evangelist Ray Comfort. In 2009 he worked on the altered version of Charles Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species”, and distributed it with his organization, causing quite a commotion in the scientific community due to omitted chapters, and an introduction written by Ray Comfort.

That was not the only time Kirk landed in hot waters due to his beliefs – in 2012 he guest-starred on the talk show “Piers Morgan Tonight” and talked about homosexuality, saying it was unnatural and destructive to society, which drew criticism from the LGBT community, gay rights activists, and celebrities.

Who is Cleo Rose Elliott?

Cleo is a musician and model, but perhaps best recognized as the daughter of well-known actors Sam Elliot and Katherine Ross. She was born under the Zodiac sign Virgo on 17 September 1984, in Malibu, California, USA. As of early 2022, she is 37 years old, and holds American nationality.

Early life and Family

Cleo was born into famous affluent parents – her father, Sam, is best known for his roles in “Lifeguard”, “Conagher” and “Hulk”, while her mother, Katherine gained popularity starring in the movies such as “The Graduate”, “The Stepford Wives”, and “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”. Her parents met on the film set of the horror film “The Legacy” and married in 1984. She doesn‘t have any siblings.

She developed an interest in music at a young age, and later began learning the art of playing several musical instruments, including the flute and guitar.

When it comes to her educational qualifications, she attended Malibu High, later transferring to Colin McEwan High School, matriculating in 2002. Cleo then enrolled at Joanne Baron/D.W. Brown Acting Studio in Santa Monica, graduating in 2006. Having completed her education, she trained in classical music and singing under Charity Chapman, the singer and songwriter, with a great interest in Italian opera. In an interview, Cleo disclosed: ‘Classical opera is the best way to warm-up your voice for singing rock. You don’t want to lose your voice rocking out”.

Career

She launched her career as a model in 2003, while attending the acting studio appearing in the TV show “Sexyhair”, and later she featured in a variety of fashion magazines, such as “The Malibu Times”.

While working with Charity Chapman, she joined the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP), where she met Bobby Harby, the music producer.

Working with Bobby in 2008, she released her first album entitled “No More Lies”, influenced by her opposing musical training and personal preferences. Talking to a media outlet, she disclosed: ‘The sound is very pop-rock, but I’m really into heavy hard rock. The song is about love, of course, and finding love and losing it but it isn’t about one specific person.’

When it comes to her musical influences, she cites Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Guns ‘n’ Roses, Fiona Apple, and Sheryl Crow.

However, the album didn’t attract the hype or positive reviews expected, and since then she’s struggled to emerge as an artist and singer. According to the latest reports, she’s represented a group of young musicians from Malibu, such as “2 Cents”, Tim Horn, and Schwarze.

Personal life

She is very private about her personal matters and romantic life, however, it’s believed that she’s in a relationship with Randy Christopher Bates, an athlete, musician and singer, who performs with his band “Panic Boom”. Judging from his Instagram account, he likes spending time outdoors, cycling and surfing, often in the company of Cleo.

There were some rumors that Cleo and Randy became engaged, but given that she’s not active on social media, and generally doesn’t share personal information, it’s hard to establish whether they walked down the aisle. However, Cleo has a very close bond with her parents, and is often seen accompanying them at movie promotions and red carpet events.

Scandals

Despite leading a low profile life, in March 2011 Cleo became the main topic of various media outlets after she allegedly attacked her mother, Katherine, with a pair of scissors.

According to her mother’s statements, Cleo lost control and wanted to hurt her physically, following her around the house, kicking cupboards in the kitchen and stabbing her. Katherine reached to call the police, but Cleo cut the cord off, and threatened to poke her eyes.

Following this incident, Katherine disclosed some private information about Cleo, saying that she had been verbally and physically abusing her in her formative years. Katherine sought a protective order against Cleo, which required her to stay 100 yards away from her mother – during the same month, Cleo arrived at the house in the company of a police officer to collect her belongings

Interestingly, they never disclosed what might have caused Cleo to act in such a manner, nor ever commented again regarding this incident.

Is she active on social media?

It appears that Cleo is not a fan of social media platforms, and doesn’t use Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. However, she did have an Instagram account, but it seems that she’s deleted it.

What is her net worth?

As of 2021, her estimated net worth is in the range of $1 million, which she’s earned through her career as a model and musician. Her parent’s combined wealth is around $20 million, acquired through their careers as actors.

Physical stats and Hobbies

Cleo is 5ft 8ins tall (173cm) and weighs around 145lbs (65kgs). Her natural hair is brown, but over the years she has experimented with different hairstyles and hair dyes, such as pink, red and green. Her eyes are blue.

In her free time, she likes to attend concerts and festivals, and is a great fan of rock and metal music – her favorite bands include “Iron Maiden”, “Guns ’n’ Roses”, and “Metallica”.

Cleo likes to travel, and thanks to her parent’s prolific careers, she’s visited most states of the US, and European countries such as England and France.

Reportedly she is an avid dog lover.

As her favorite actor and actress she cites Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Angelina Jolie, while her favorite movies are “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle”, “Central Intelligence”, and “San Andreas”.

Briefly about Sam Elliott

Sacramento native Samuel ‘Sam’ Elliot is an actor, producer and writer, who’s received numerous awards and nominations for two Golden Globe Awards, two Primetime Emmy Awards, and an Academy Award.

He kicked off his career as a supporting actor, playing unusual, eccentric and interesting characters, and given his physical stature and appearance, he was well-suited for Western movies. Sam made his TV debut in 1969, appearing in an episode of the series “Judd for the Defense”. After bouncing around roles in TV series, he landed a recurring part in the popular series “Mission: Impossible”, followed by his role in the made-for-TV movie “I Will Fight No More Forever”.

https://www.facebook.com/grittvnetwork/photos/a.670765703008104/874055276012478/

Sam got his breakthrough role in 1976, when cast as Rick Carlson in the drama film “Lifeguard”, alongside Ann Archer, Stephen Young, and Parker Stevenson. From that point his career skyrocketed, and he starred in several commercially successful series, such as “The Shadow Riders”(1982), “A Death in California” and “Mask”, both in 1985. During the ‘90s, Sam landed several roles in TV shows and movies, including “Gettysburg” and “Tombstone” both in 1993, and “The Big Lebowski” (1998). He also portrayed the main character, Conn Conagher, in the TV film “Conagher” in 1991, earning a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Actor.

He continued building his profile in the new millennium, portraying various characters in commercially successful movies such as “Ghost Rider”, “Draft Day”, and “The Company You Keep”.

Briefly about Katherine Ross

Similar to her husband, she‘s also a critically acclaimed actress with various awards under her belt, including two Golden Globes, a British Academy Film Award, and a nomination for an Academy Award. Katherine started her career while attending the Santa Rosa Junior College, performing in various plays. Later she dropped out, and relocated to San Francisco to perfect her craft at The Actors Workshop.

After several roles in theater productions of well-known plays, she switched to the screen, appearing in several TV shows, such as “The Lieutenant”, “The Virginian”, and “Run for Your Life”. Katherine made her debut movie appearance in the 1965 war drama film “Shenandoah”.

She landed her breakthrough role in the 1967 romantic comedy movie “The Graduate”, sharing the screen with Dustin Hoffman and Ann Bancroft, a performance which earned her the Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year – Actress, and the nomination for Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. In 1969, Katherine starred in the classic “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”, and the western movie “Tell Them Willie Boy is Here”.

Katherine continued rising through the ranks, starring in films such as “Get to Know Your Rabbit” (1972) and later “The Stepford Wives” in 2004, her portrayal in the latter earning her the Saturn Award for Best Actress. Regarding her later roles, she starred in the cult classic “Donnie Darko” (2001) “Eye of The Dolphin” (2006), and “The Hero”(2017).

When it comes to her personal life, she walked down the aisle four times before finally settling down with Sam. They are still together and apparently happier than ever, proving that even though long-lasting marriages are rare in Hollywood, they are possible.
