Jane's Addiction's Dave Navarro is dating hateful FOX hack Andrea Tantaros



I always hated that band and having to put up with their LA-cock-rock-posing-as-spirituality on alternative radio. Not surprised that in addition to being a pretentious douche, he's also a wingnut.



This is kinda-sorta surprising: Fox News conservative pundit Andrea Tantaros is reportedly dating Jane’s Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro.

According to Us Weekly, the pair have been spotted canoodling around New York City and have been dating for a few months since being introduced by mutual friends. Navarro is 47 years old, Tantaros is 36.

“Even though they seem like opposites, they have a lot in common. They both have a wicked sense of humor and share a love of politics and dark eyeliner,” a source told Us.

They certainly don’t seem like political opposites, however, as Navarro performed at the 2012 Republican National Convention.

I used to listen to Ritual de lo Habitual all the time back in the day and I still think that album holds up very well today. I never knew their politics, but it does surprise me and disappoint me that Dave Navarro is a Republican. I would be even more surprised to find out Perry Farrell is a Republican however, that would just not make sense.

She's also, dare I say it... sort of hot.



She may not be the brightest bulb in the chandelier, at least based upon the stuff she says on FOX, but I also believe that is an act, for many of those folks. They don't actually believe the crap they shovel to their barely-sentient viewers.

Not a terribly honorable career choice, but again, meh.

As for Dave Navarro, he is a good guitar player, which is really what guitar players are supposed to be known for, not their wit or political erudition. They can't all be Peter Buck.

"Summertime Rolls" is about one of the most psychedelic songs ever to NOT come out of the 60s, IMHO.

And Perry Farrell's cover of "Ripple" Still holds up.

So sure some of it is scripted to create a social media buzz.

Isn't she the one who said women shouldn't vote or serve on juries? Maybe it was someone else. But you know some of that has to be made up. I mean who says such nonsense outside Saudi Arabia?

and attitude do not go hand in hand. I believe talent is usually good given but politics is sometimes based on displacement, repression or in her case hatred. I feel sorry for him hes talented she is a hater will use him up and spit him out when shes through...lol. Hatred is the business of Fox news and business is good
