“I still use laundromats, and one day I was walking to one carrying a bag of laundry. I had a hat on and sunglasses because I didn’t want to be noticed. All of a sudden I turned around and there was a gang of kids asking for my autograph. I mean, how much can I look like a star with a bag of laundry? I said, ‘No, I’m not her, I just look like her.' Another time in Germany I escaped to go to the bathroom. When I opened the door all these kids had crowded around the cubicle. I was waiting for them to come in and hand me the toilet paper!”

Not only does Suzi Quatro get accosted in public, assaulted with obscene phone calls, she gets letters, lots and lots of letters: “I got a letter one time and it said: ‘Dear Suzi:. I think you are great’ — all the usual fan stuff — and then it says: ‘I only have one problem, I wet my bed, honest to God, 1 piss in my bed. As a matter of fact, right now I’m watching the sheets dry over a hanger’... then he went on about sheets for a while, stopped, and said bye bye. I don’t know what he accomplished by that letter, maybe he wanted me to send him a dryer.”
