Jimi Hendrix Tape a Fake

The estate for Jimi Hendrix claims the intimate tape which Vivid Entertainment claims includes Hendrix is a fake.

The Hendrix estate says:

"We view the release as nothing more than a callous attempt to trade on the image and reputation of a deceased artist who is unable to defend himself against such an outrageous and baseless assertion."

Vivid Entertainment said they consulted with several experts to authenticate the footage and stand by their claim that it really is Jimi Hendrix in the video. Vivid adds the statement from the Hendrix estate is "not in any way a refutation of the authenticity."

If you’re ever in Seattle check out the Music Museum near the Space Needle. It has an area dedicated to Jim Hendrix.

Stay tuned for the release of an overweight Elvis intimate tape, which shows him rolling around in mash potatoes and gravy, while two girls lick it off.
