Macca denies John Lennon's gay relationship

London (ANI): Sir Paul McCartney has denied claims that John Lennon wanted a gay relationship with him. Author Philip Norman claims in a new biography, 'John Lennon: The Life', that the late star lusted over McCartney.

However, Macca is adamant Lennon did not have homosexual tendencies- but admits they often shared a bed. "I don't think (the gay claims) are true. John never ever tried anything, I slept with him a million times," the Sun quoted him, as saying.

"I've seen him on tour roaring drunk, out of his mind in the early days before he sobered up and went to rehab. Roaring drunk and it was always with a female, never once. If you've got a little gay tendency and your roaring drunk I'd have caught him once," he added.
