In 1975, the Sex Pistol’s lead singer was the angriest man in the UK. Now living in LA, John Lydon is still furious – and as entertaining as ever. He talks to Guy Adams about insulting Hollywood’s elite, why he’s chosen gardening over amphetamines, and the real reason he didn’t make Malcolm McLaren’s funeral
John Joseph Lydon, the singer better known as Johnny Rotten, lives in a ramshackle brick house next to Venice Pier in Los Angeles, which is where a lot of very eccentric people tend to hang out and is therefore one of the few places in the Western world where he might actually blend in.
