Famed punk rock legend John Lydon is in the news, and it is for a decidedly non-punk reason. Known mostly as Johnny Rotten, the lead singer of the seminal punk band The Sex Pistols, Lydon is living what is apparently a rather sedate existence in the Los Angeles area these days.
According to a new book from the rocker John spends much of his time in Venice Beach accommodating the wildlife on his property, to a certain level of personal distress.

Yes, we all could do with less intel on rock stars and their infested nether regions.
It was a flea. A flea bit Johnny Rotten's penis. So, ya gotta ask, where was Johnny Rotten's penis when he rescued the squirrel? Applaud him for the rescue.

Okay, we’ll applaud…we guess…
It appears this photo was taken while the flea attack was underway.

Valid.
An actual flea, not the bassist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Probably.

Some headlines beg a read. But, honestly, the most surprising reveal in the article is that Johnny Rotten is only 64 years old.
