Nope, I don't have a different view. But I do have a comment. Talent isn't the only thing that men fall in love with. I don't know if Trudie is or is not talented, neither do I know if Frances is. Quite frankly I don't care. Neither do I care about the sexploits of him, his wife or any of their other lovers. If it's true, I applaud her openess, if it isn't then like you I consider it shameless self-promotion. That peoples private lives gets press bugs me. Everybody has done something in their lives that they're not proud of or somehow is debaucherous or could otherwise be sensational; these things become somehow interesting to the populace at large for people who have some public notoreity for something unrelated? It's all crap. I don't blame the notorious people, I blame the mindless idiots that lap it all up. The only thing I care to hear about Sting is his music. That's it. He's a pop songwriter and musician, that's the news that's fit to print. And that includes giving money to the poor or saving the rainforest. F*cking fantastic for him, great that he does something wonderful with his millions ... but I don't care (though it makes me jealous). Why is it reported?

Best for you if you find it funny, I don?t. I seriously doubt that all this is true in the first place: we can all claim to know Sting more than the ordinary fan, and I?d be surprised if I were the only one to find these revelations a heap of self-promoting crap by a woman who, despite the odd attempt to emerge as a movie actress/producer, is and will always be nothing but ?Sting?s wife?. But even if this is true, how very delicate of her. You know what? After reading (and translating) Broken Music, I am somehow sorry that Sting broke up with Frances Tomelty and married someone as Trudie. Before reading the book I only knew she was an actress, and I was so impressed to learn how Frances devoted all of herself to Sting, how she fought to open the doors of London?s record companies to him at the beginning of his career, how forgiving she was when Sting missed Joe?s birth, how she didn?t only rely on her husband?s growing fame but kept on working on her own career, how charming, generous and self-confident she always proved to be. We may learn about Trudie?s hidden qualities if Sting ever writes his second 25 years, but if we have to judge by what is apparent it seems that Sting is no exception to the rule: the best musicians have the least talented and intriguing wives (just think of Yoko Ono or the late Linda McCartney). I mean, Frances Tomelty, as Sting himself writes, is still an appreciated theatre and movie actress while to me Trudie?s name, no matter how hard I try to remember, is only associated to a ridiculous Italian film called ?Mamba?, which I only know because I am Italian and happened to come across it on TV many years ago, and to the Lakehouse Cookbook. She may have produced a couple of successful movies of late, but I hardly call that talent, I call it money-making. Any different views ;-)? Ciao! Michele

STING?S wife has revealed the sex-mad rocker loves raunchy swinging sessions.
And randy Trudie Styler said her hubby gets off on watching her getting it on with other women.
Trudie blew the lid off their sex life in a US radio show broadcast to millions ? telling host Howard Stern the couple visited seedy sex clubs.
Even famous shock jock Stern was taken aback when she told how the former Police frontman invited women home for threesomes.
She said: "It?s rock 'n' roll. Isn?t that what we?re supposed to do?"
When Stern asked: "Are you guys still swinging?", film producer Trudie replied: "Yeah. Big time, honey!"
And she confessed: "I?m European. We do all that stuff. We have a lot more fun than you guys."
Asked whether she minded seeing her husband with other women, Trudie said: "I don?t get jealous. He likes to go to these clubs where they all get naked. I just sort of hang out and talk to them."
She claimed they enjoyed a threesome in a sex club in 1996, saying: "It was in one of those German places where everyone is doing it."
Trudie explained they had picked up a girl for some kinky pleasure and when Stern asked: "Did she touch you?", the film producer replied "Of course she did."
Trudie admitted she was "turned on" by the steamy experience, saying: "I?m a very womanly woman."
Stern asked if she had taken Ecstasy and she replied: "I?ve done everything. I?ve been around the block and then some."
Stern?s sidekick Robin Quivers suggested 49-year-old Trudie did not realise what swinging actually meant.
But she replied: "Swinging is like wife-swopping. Of course, we?re doing it."
Cheeky Stern asked whether Sting would mind if Trudie slept with him.
She claimed: "He?ll probably want to take pictures. We don?t want to be legit. That?s boring."
Father-of-six Sting, 52, is famed for his outrageous sexploits.
He once told how he and Trudie, the mother of four of his children, indulged in seven-hour tantric sex sessions.
It is an Eastern mystical tradition which suggests that self-purification and long training can lead to almost magical powers.
He boasts that his yoga exercises mean he can make love for hours on end, saying: "I can stay aroused and keep myself in control.
"It?s Trudie?s pleasure that I can satisfy when I?m in such good shape. Mentally and physically, yoga keeps me fit.
"The whole secret behind tantric sex is making your stomach go as near to your spine as you can while still allowing you to breathe.
"That way you never lose control."
Sting has never been shy about talking about his sex life.
In the mid-90s he declared: "I?m 44 now but I feel fitter than ever.
"I can do things with my body now that I wasn?t able to do as a 20-year-old athlete.
"But it (sex) should never be rushed, ideally it should be for the woman to attain satisfaction, not the man.
"Most blokes make love for the shortest amount of time possible, but that isn?t really good for relationships."
I?m red-blooded and I can appreciate other women."
Sting, real name Gordon Sumner, once told pals he wanted to visit an S&M club in New York where visitors were chained to the walls and whipped.
For a recent birthday Trudie delighted her raunchy husband by presenting him with a video featuring her dressed in a sumptuous black evening gown, reclining on a bed.
She was surrounded by three toyboys hastily pulling on their clothes.
And in February last year Sting was spotted browsing in a Los Angeles sex shop.
He looked closely at a vibrating, remote control "love egg" and thought about buying a Diving Dolphin sex aid which promised to "arouse the emotions".
He eventually leaving the store empty-handed.
Sting and Trudie are one of Britain?s most high profile celebrity couples.
They mix in a world of A-listers and number Madonna and Guy Ritchie, Sir Elton John and David Furnish, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin among their pals.
Trudie is known for her match-making abilities, her biggest success was setting up Guy and Madonna.
Sting said: "We?re famous for that one particular introduction and that gets translated as ?we throw these celebrity parties for people to match-make?.
"Well, we have friends, and some of them happen to be celebrities.
"In fact, celebrity is not something I?m particularly interested in."
The Newcastle-born singer has always been a hit with women.
His sister Angela recalls how her school pals often had crushes on him.
She said: "I think he noticed it ? he could not fail to, really."
