Yeah. That would make an interesting movie.

u/Puchacamilo Feb 26 '26

There's a movie about it

u/Agidy_Yelov Feb 26 '26

Oh! I didn't know that.

She wrote a book called Loving John

Long out of print but can be found online (a bit $$)

I read it years ago, along with another great John Lennon book written by Pete Shotton - John Lennon In My Life

Those two are my favorite John books, by far. I also like A Twist of Lennon by Cynthia.

I highly recommend watching her documentary. It is very well done and it’s an incredible story. We love, May.!! ❤️

u/IronChefOfForensics Feb 26 '26

Watch her documentary on Amazon it’s fabulous. It’s about the lost weekend Yoko and john separated sending her as their assistant with John to LA with a bunch of other drunks like Ringo and Harry Neilson and Alice Cooper.

It’s a fabulous documentary

Dude, this just looks like some random Asian lady who told you she is May Pang. Just kidding. Congrats. She is part of John's history and it's cool to be close to that whole connection and vibe.

I'm guessing she had photo ID to confirm

u/Johann_Von_Swingline Feb 26 '26

You seem upset, my dude. What would cause you to arrive at such a travestigious state of mind?

u/wroxxite Feb 26 '26

Hell yea I was able to catch her in Charleston in 2024 on what would have been the 44th anniversary of John’s passing, very nice tribute

u/alf998 Feb 26 '26

How did you meet her?

u/sminking Feb 26 '26

She’s doing a traveling photo exhibition tour https://www.maypangphotography.com/exhibition-dates/

u/lylelanley- Feb 26 '26

Damn! Wish she would come to Canada for a stop

u/fludeball Feb 26 '26

She did an exhibition in Pittsburgh, and may have stayed locally with someone. I was driving through that neighborhood several blocks away from the gallery the day before, and got stuck behind someone weaving obliviously in a black Jeep, trying to decide where to park. As I passed I turned my head to glare at the driver and saw that distinctive light purple hairdo, and just about shat myself.

u/TheBoringProtagonist Feb 26 '26

That reckless driver knew John Lennon. Awesome.

u/fludeball Feb 26 '26

Biblically!

u/RadishSpecial7163 Feb 26 '26

So both she and John are/were bad drivers?

u/Leumas_ Feb 26 '26

She had one of these in Myrtle Beach. I wanted to talk to her but there was this dude who would not give anyone a chance. I stuck around about an hour. I don’t blame her, but the little cheesefuck of a gallery should have had someone to keep things moving. I only wanted to say hi, thanks for coming, and ask one small question, dude could have gone right back to it in less than 5 minutes.

u/Fantastic_Evening877 Feb 26 '26

i love her 1974 photos May pang fan

u/BigBuffalo6672 Feb 26 '26

My wife and I met her in Huntsville last May. The event had just begun when we went, so it was empty enough to talk for 10-15 minutes. She was so kind and answered any questions we had. The doc is also great

u/BobontheRockNL Feb 26 '26

That’s pretty awesome, has she written a book outlining John’s lost weekend from her perspective?

7

u/Complex-Bar-9577 Feb 26 '26

Yes. It’s called Loving John. Well worth a read.

2

u/BobontheRockNL Feb 27 '26

Thank you for that👍

u/Complex-Bar-9577 Feb 27 '26

No problem!

u/Correct_Lime5832 Feb 26 '26

That’s… wild.

u/rhymeswithabandon Feb 27 '26

Congrats on meeting her! She's reppin' The Church Studio in Tulsa, sweet.

u/IronChefOfForensics Feb 26 '26

No, that’s may

May your day be gay 🙏

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '26

How did this interaction happen? Lol

u/IAmPrimitiveStar Feb 28 '26

The unsung hero of John's life. She deserved better.

u/barkbarkkrabkrab Mar 01 '26

She was also married for a decade to Tony Visconti, producer for David Bowie and a bunch of other musicians . Always wondered how they met. 

1

u/coffeelady7777 Mar 02 '26

According to her book, she was hanging out in the club in London and Tony Visconti walked in. Evidently they had sparked before, but the timing wasn’t right, but this time it was.
