Er, ST's earlier self-corrected facts?

Sting has said, "You have to remember we were blond bombshells at the time and most of our fans were young girls so I started role-playing a bit. To be frank, it was right in our market. A lot of teenage girls were buying our records. So the idea was, let's write a Lolita story."
Sting was a schoolteacher for a couple of years before The Police took off, and while he has always denied that the song is autobiographical, he's also alluded to the fact that many of the band's fans in those days were teenage girls. In an interview telling the story behind his hits, Sting said "It's certainly not biographical, but people having relationships with teachers, it definitely happens, and in the song's defence, nothing happens. It's just the danger of, something happens and the teacher is aware of it, which is why he's saying, 'Don't stand so close to me'."
Meanwhile Sweet Tits correction: Andy Summers was Police guitarist, Stewart Copeland drums, Sting lead vocals/electric-bass. And like all HOT groups with hordes of HOT Lolita groupies some with brazen banners saying, "Andy Fuck Me" it is naieve to think that Sting, Stew, Andy were not 'aroused' when one or several stood close, or lay even closer in dressing rooms or hotel rooms.

Well before Britney and much since, a long line of popular media 'Schoolgirls' have pandered to (decent and less decent) men, women, boys, and girls furtively enthralled while not openly admitting it. Why else would Worldwide 'brand Schoolie' remain so big?
Alice in Wonderland, Shirley Temple, Saint Trinians, Sue Lyon, Brooke Shields, Jodie Foster, Baby Spice, Dominique Swain, Swifty, anyone?

Sting has said that "Don't stand so close to Me" was not at all autobiographical, but just about a Teacher (not him) who was on the receiving end of a teenage crush. There is no indication that it is about someone getting an erection because teenage girls are too close to him. It is just a message to tell the girl to stay away from him.
Don't spoil ST'S fun with facts Robbie!

I am surprised people have not cancelled Iggy Pop or Trainspotting. He loved the odd 11 and 13 year old.

I think that was how Britney Spears started, Honey.
