Future wife confiscates rocker's Rolodex
Chad Kroeger has announced that he's reined in his libido for Avril Lavigne - by allowing her to confiscate his 'Rolodex'.
Yes, not even falling back on the dated 'little black book' phrase, Kroeger apparently stores his old hook-ups in a Rolodex - that weird piece of office stationery from the 90s.
Speaking to Men's Health magazine, Kroeger said, "I don't think my libido has changed. I just think that my Rolodex has been confiscated. And I'm OK with that."
Kroeger went on to reveal that not even his fiancee listens to Nickelback - and claims this is a relief, as he doesn't want her hearing his 'racy' lyrics.
He added, "If a naughty Nickelback song came on, my fiancee would probably ask who it was. She'd be like, 'Who's this? This is good. I like it.'
"I'm terrified that some day she's going to listen to some of the things I've written, and I'm going to have some explaining to do.
"There's going to be a whole question-and-answer period following that one."
Let's not forget that this is the same man who once famously described himself as a "walking penis" to Playboy magazine.
Chad Kroeger: self admitted 'walking penis'.
"We've always been very close to our crew, so we've had a lot of fun getting them to do silly, stupid things that could possibly cause them to hurt or injure themselves in some way," he said in the interview. "We were in Germany years ago - this was one of my favourite stories - and we were just bored. There was a heat wave going on in Germany.
"In a back room in the venue where we were playing, there was an old fan with a metal blade... And we paid the drum tech about 600 deustchmarks [to] stick his Johnson in the fan."
Chad added, "He took the money… I can still hear the 'bleh-bleh-blehhhhhhh' of the blade slowly spluttering to a stop, and this blood-curdling scream. It was fantastic.
"Somebody had video footage of this somewhere that needs to be resurrected and shown at the guy's next birthday party."
Check out a fan-made lyric video to one of Nickelback's 'naughty' songs below:
Sex machines of music - who couldn't keep it in their pants?
Rihanna: A$ap Rocky, Ashton Kutcher, Chris Brown, Drake, model Dudley O'Shaugnessy, Jay-Z, Josh Hartnett, baseballer Matt Kemp, Omarion, Shia Lebeouf - notches on the bedpost or just rumoured relationships? Either way, Rihanna likes her men...
COURTNEY LOVE: Famous for her misuse of a bunch of substances, since Cobain she's been romantically linked with the likes of Dave Navarro, Billy Corgan, Trent Reznor and Fred Durst.
GENE SIMMONS: Understandably unappealing to some, Simmons' Kiss getup will ahve led to countless conquests. Also, the band never tired of their phallic references.
Jimi Hendrix: Of course his musical legacy overshadows all the seedy behaviour, but it's also common knowledge that his intimidating phallus was once cast in plaster.
Madonna: If she's not adopting young men, she's dating them. Madonna is something of a maneater and has never been afraid to expose herself (with the help of Jean Paul Gaultier), and infuriated Catholics with her insensitive videos. Good on her.
Marilyn Manson: Controversial in so many ways, Manson's court appearances have been the result of silly and puerile behaviour. Like forcing security guards' heads towards his crotch.
Jim Morrison: Morrison risked imprisonment for inciting crowds with his promiscuity. There was a massive backlash after he allegedly revealed his penis to a crowd in Miami, with 30,000 people attending a rally hoping to restore 'public decency'.
Nikki Six: The Motley Crue guitarist wins his place on the list for a number of reasons, but one anecdote suffices: having made an agreement with Tommy Lee to forego washing or grooming themselves in any way, after two months Six made a groupie throw up during an especially intimate moment.
Billie Holiday: Not just one of the most important jazz artists there's ever been, Billie lived a life of drugs and sex. She had a highly salacious relationship with fellow musicians Willie Cook among others.
Tupac: His music looms large for today's rapppers, as last week's Coachella hologram proved, but today's MCs would do well to match his sexual achievements also. He is said to have bedded women wherever he went, whether it was on the set of his videos or over in Europe. On a darker note, he was sentenced for sexually assaulting a woman in his hotel room.
