Let’s see, when we last discussed John Lydon, he was putting forth the idea of working with Britney Spears. Lydon, came off as sympathetic, almost fatherly in tone. It was touching.

Sex Pistols star John Lydon has expressed a desire to work with Britney Spears – claiming he can help the singer overcome her personal problems.

“I haven’t written a song for Britney yet but I would love to,” Lydon told the Sun newspaper.

“I’d like to help out because there’s a girl who needs some help,” he added

Today, Billboard reports that Lydon is being sued for sexual harassment and assault.

Sex Pistols singer Johnny Rotten has been charged in a civil lawsuit filed in Los Angeles with beating a woman during the taping of a reality TV show.

Roxane Davis, an assistant producer on “Bodog Battle of the Bands,” that featured Rotten, 52, said the former punk rocker hit her because he didn’t like the hotel room he was given.

The alleged aggression in January 2007 did not lead to criminal charges, but Davis is suing Rotten, whose real name is John Lydon, for sexual harassment and assault.

To be fair, Lydon may go to court and clear his name of the harassment and assault charges. He may even disprove that he was being whiny about a his hotel room. But, one thing troubles me, one thing is not going to go away.

    Born in London, his parents ..both Irish Catholic immigrants, his father from Tuam, County Galway, and his mother from County Cork. He grew up on a council estate in Finsbury Park, North London with three younger brothers. [don't know any of those places, or what a council estate really is]

    At ..seven, he contracted spinal meningitis, put him in and out of comas for half a year ..erasing most of his memory. [memories of a pre-seven year old: ? ..anyone? mommies breast, his own growth, hair, getting a scratched knee, fire will burn the flesh off your fingers, broken glass will cut you deeply, the cars at intersections come from your right, blinking is good ?..]

    The disease left him with a permanent curve in his spine. It also damaged his eyesight, resulting in his characteristic stare. [help me here: is this the same trauma that happened to Madonna?]

    John attended St. William of York School in Islington North London..

    In 1983, Lydon co-starred with Harvey Keitel in the movie thriller Corrupt, a.k.a. Copkiller and The Order of Death. While the film was generally panned, Lydon won some praise for his role as a psychotic rich boy.

    In context of Why Iki peed Ya review of the rest of J. Rotten’s, aka John Lydon’s biography, I’d say he personifies the typical tube riding hunched back drooling egocentric born-again London sneezer, type character.

    His act is sort of like “Girls gone Wild, Spring Break,” without the girls, and also maybe without the Spring.

    So in many respects, that context makes him a Conformist: comparing here Gov. Spitzer as a non-Conformist. Spitzer is like the elementary school eraser cleaning/beating goody two shoes teachers’ helper, who goes to the janitor’s room and smokes a doobie with his hall pass.

    Yes, Mr Rotten, who is one year different in age to me, most assuredly scares women. I scare women and I am a regular looking dude. Mr Lydon-Rotten would be chosen for eraser cleaning duty as well but mostly out of pity from teachers.

    Resultant: both men, errr, all three men Spitzer/Lydon/Rotten, have been hoodwinked by women, taken to task, and beat the hell up, just like Rosie O’Donnell who’s waiting to remarry Kelli.

    I’ll get back to you. pd/mpw
