'ex-Beatle' Paul Mccartney ..
33 Answers
Still, the media refer to Sir Tumbs-Aloft as 'ex-Beatle ...' and I find it baffling.
Given that there is an entire generation for whom The Beatles are a cultural footnote, but were not alive when the band last played or recorded, and that anyone who remembers the Beatles knows who Paul McCartney is - why do the media still insist on this pointless tag?
You never see 'Rolling Stone Mick Jagger', or 'ex-Jackson Five Michael Jackson', or even 'ex-Squeeze Jools Holland' - just our Paul.
