McCARTNEY HAS FUN BEING ‘SPICY’

-

Paul McCartney says sharing the raunchier stories of his days in the Beatles doesn’t faze him anymore and he’s getting a kick out of knowing others enjoy the tales.

McCartney, 76, recently spilled the dirt on the Fab Four in the pages of GQ. One memory involved he and his bandmates applauding the loss of George Harrison’s virginity. In another, McCartney fessed up to hiring two Las Vegas prostitute­s.

“I’m not really trying to get attention,” McCartney says. “I’m having fun.”

McCartney, who launches his Freshen Up tour in Quebec City Monday, says the “spicy stories” are only the tip of the iceberg, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be sharing more tales about the “joys of youth.”

After his stop in Quebec, McCartney plays in Montreal (Sept. 20), Winnipeg (Sept. 28) and Edmonton (Sept. 30).
