April 8, 2010

According to The Independent, Malcolm McLaren, the former manager of the SEX PISTOLS and impresario, has died. He was 64.

Despite early reports that he had died in New York, McLaren's girlfriend of many years, Young Kim, 37, confirmed the impresario died of mesothelioma at a hospital in Switzerland

It is a rare form of cancer that develops from the protective lining that covers many of the body's internal organs, the mesothelium and is usually caused by exposure to asbestos. His body is expected to be brought home to be buried in Highgate cemetery, north London.

SEX PISTOLS' Johnny Rotten has released the following statement regarding Malcolm McLaren's passing: "For me Malc was always entertaining, and I hope you remember that. Above all else he was an entertainer and I will miss him, and so should you."
