We told you earlier about Quincy Jones‘ claim in a Vulture interview on Wednesday that he used to date Ivanka Trump.
But that was just the tip of the iceberg of cray stories told by the living legend music producer.

For instance, he made the outlandish claim that Richard Pryor actually had sex with Marlon Brando!
“Brando used to go cha-cha dancing with us. He could dance his ass off. He was the most charming motherfucker you ever met. He’d fuck anything. Anything! He’d fuck a mailbox. James Baldwin. Richard Pryor. Marvin Gaye.”
Whoa! Crazy, right? But here’s the thing — Pryor’s widow confirmed the story to TMZ!
In fact, Jennifer Lee Pryor said Richard was open about his bisexuality in his private life, to close friends, and that he’d get a kick out of Quincy talking about it now! She quipped:
“It was the ’70s! Drugs were still good, especially quaaludes. If you did enough cocaine, you’d fuck a radiator and send it flowers in the morning.”
Ha! Well, how about that!
Makes you wonder if everything Quincy says in the interview is on the level… Here are the 5 wildest moments from the convo:
1. Michael Jackson Stole Songs
“I hate to get into this publicly, but Michael stole a lot of stuff. He stole a lot of songs. [Donna Summer’s] “State of Independence” and “Billie Jean.” The notes don’t lie, man. He was as Machiavellian as they come.
Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough — Greg Phillinganes wrote the c section. Michael should’ve given him 10 percent of the song. Wouldn’t do it.”
2. Why People Hate Hillary Clinton
“It’s because there’s a side of her ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ when you keep secrets, they backfire… This is something else I shouldn’t be talking about.”
3. Who Killed Kennedy
“[Chicago mobster Sam] Giancana. The connection was there between Sinatra and the Mafia and Kennedy. Joe Kennedy ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ he was a bad man ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ he came to Frank to have him talk to Giancana about getting votes.”
4. The Beatles Were Terrible Musicians To Start
“That they were the worst musicians in the world. They were no-playing motherfuckers. Paul was the worst bass player I ever heard. And Ringo? Don’t even talk about it. I remember we were in the studio with George Martin, and Ringo had taken three hours for a four-bar thing he was trying to fix on a song. He couldn’t get it. We said, “Mate, why don’t you get some lager and lime, some shepherd’s pie, and take an hour-and-a-half and relax a little bit.” So he did, and we called Ronnie Verrell, a jazz drummer. Ronnie came in for 15 minutes and tore it up. Ringo comes back and says, “George, can you play it back for me one more time?” So George did, and Ringo says, “That didn’t sound so bad.” And I said, “Yeah, motherfucker because it ain’t you.” Great guy, though.”
5. Cyndi Lauper Was A Diva During We Are The World
“It wasn’t the rockers. It was Cyndi Lauper. She had a manager come over to me and say, “The rockers don’t like the song.” I know how that shit works. We went to see Springsteen, Hall & Oates, Billy Joel, and all those cats and they said, “We love the song.” So I said [to Lauper], “Okay, you can just get your shit over with and leave.” And she was fucking up every take because her necklace or bracelet was rattling in the microphone. It was just her that had a problem.”
Damn.
What do YOU think of all this tea??
