Yoko Ono celebrated her 88th birthday yesterday. She is one of the most famous Japanese artists and women to win the famous group “The Beatles” John Lennon.
She was his second wife, and they met in 1966, married three years after, and his death in 1980 ended their marriage. After him, Yoko was no longer married.
In 1966, John noticed in one gallery her famous exhibit called “Ceiling Painting”. Yoko said their meeting was random and she didn’t know at the time who Lennon was, but the gallery owner said she told him to invite one of the Beatles to the exhibit.
They quickly started a love affair and he left his first wife Cynthia because of Yoko. The wedding ceremony lasted ten minutes.
Lennon’s aunt Mimi called Ono a “poisonous dwarf,” and members of The Beatles Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison refused to attend the recordings of the group and the record label’s meetings.
– John met with Yoko and brought her to record a group in the studio. It seemed a little intrusive to us, she with us while we were recording. Looking at the situation from today’s perspective, the man was actually absolutely fascinated by it. John wanted us to respect her, and we did, ”McCartney said at one time.Yoko, as many people close to the musician say, had a bad influence on Lennon. She was a heroin addict, and just when John was about to start a new life, he became involved with her and started using heroin again. They were drugging together. It is also rumored to have played a key role in the breakup of the Beatles’ celebrities.
Born in Tokyo, Yoko Ono has been a pacifist and anti-racist activist since the 1960s.

I prefer The Rolling Stones. Yoko Ono is not the culprit for the breakup of the Beatles. There is a recent documentary titled “John and Yoko Above Us Only Sky” that is very interesting. You may like it.
De gustibus non est disputandum. McCartney said that Yoko Ono directed Lennon towards the avant-garde, without which he would not have written songs like “Imagine.”
She is living a long and blessed life unfortunately without John who I know was here soul mate. She cannot be blamed for The Beatles break-up they were all very talented and wanted to so to solo careers anyway. Happy 88th to her!
She certainly did not break up the group, the group was already falling apart..
I wouldn’t blame her for the breakup. A very interesting life story.
I agree with you. Thank you, Vidocka!
I do not blame here for the break up. Things happen. Happy 88th Birthday to her.
That would happen without her, I am sure. And I’m asking myself, if she lived with drugs all that time, how did she reach such an old age.
I agree with you, Lado, my friend.
people always blame her, which isn’t fair. I suspect the group was coming apart long before Yoko appeared.
She was just an excuse for their breakup for the rest of the group. This is what I know.
very true and a great way to put it
But just they know the truth.
The Beatles are certainly the first and greatest rock band of all time for me, dear friend
I agree with you, Lado, my friend.
Sorry Lado but….The best rock and roll band in the history of music is “The Rolling Stones”!!!!
Haha, I expected something like this. An eternal dilemma-who is better- “The Rolling Stones” or “The Beatles”. They always were rivals.
The Rolling Stones are great too …. I’ll say so … they taste great, but both are great
The Beatles are the most important band in history but I think The Beatles are pop.
Both are great and very talented but we can love one of them a little bit more.
I agree with you, Lado. I like The Beatles more, too.
