Speaking of toxic friends….

Just like so many of us who have experienced Toxic Friend Syndrome, Formers besties Marianne Faithfull and Kate Moss are not loving each other sick anymore. In fact, Marianne is really rather cross with Kate and has spoken out about their feud, accusing the model of stealing her style like a vampire.

The 62-year-old singer says that, although she and Kate were once close, they are no longer on speaking terms.

The Daily Mail reports Marianne as saying:

'She's not really my friend. I thought she was, but she's very clever,' she said. 'She wanted to read me like a Braille book. And she did. It's a vampirical thing.' Marianne, who famously had a relationship with Mick Jagger in
the late 1960s, even accuses the 35-year-old of emulating her choice of
men, comparing the Rolling Stone to Kate’s new boyfriend Jamie Hince.

'Now
I see pictures of her with a boy who looks like Mick Jagger, and her
looking like me. So there was a reason. It's one of her gigs to do me,'
she told The Times. Kate and Marianne, apparently drawn to each other by a shared love
of fashion and rock stars, were once a regular night-time fixture in
Central London and even holidayed together in the Bahamas.At the time the iconic star said that she and Kate, who is almost thirty years her junior, were kindred spirits. ‘

However the pair’s friendship ‘suddenly soured’ some time later, according to Marianne. 'You know, it's OK. I don't give a s***. But I was quite offended at
the time. We were very fond of each other. And then it suddenly
soured,' she added.'She's very clever, but she isn't at all educated. We don't have any [common] references. Except music.”
