Simon Le Bon's Lyrics Blunder Disappoints Duran Duran Fans

Duran Duran left fans devastated on the opening night of their world tour - after frontman Simon Le Bon repeatedly forgot the lyrics to the group's greatest hits. The "Rio" rockers hit Auckland, New Zealand on Tuesday night to kick off their latest trek around the globe, but the performance was tarnished following a series of mishaps.
Le Bon failed to remember the words to the band's hit "Hungry Like A Wolf" - prompting bassist John Taylor to reportedly storm off stage.
Taylor, 47, returned minutes later and allegedly shouted at his fellow band members, "I could not dance to that. These people came here to dance."
Trying to explain the unpolished performance to a bemused audience, Le Bon quipped, "Duran Duran, f---ing up in style."
The ageing rockers - who have another six shows planned for the Asian-Pacific leg of their world tour - are currently promoting their latest LP Red Carpet Massacre, which failed to impress fans or critics in the U.S. and U.K. when it was released in November 2007.

John Taylor was my high school boyfriend.

I was so gonna marry him!!!!!

I too loved John. Now I look back and wonder why I loved a man who looked like a woman. Gotta love the 80s. Big hair, makeup all around, baggy pants and everyone got to act like a queen.

I signed my papers with Simon's last name in junior high. *sniff*

My sis and I actually saw them a few years ago when they played Memphis. Simon acted PISSED toward Andy onstage. You could just pick up on it. Simon is still dead sexy. The 15-year-old inside me still luffs him.

He was the first man to ever set aflame my pink bits. Ahhh the good old days.

I had the giant wall blanket with them from the Seven and the Ragged Tiger album. John and Simon were my favs. I initially like Nick, but when his makeup was better than mine, yeah, not so much.
