\nYes, she did.
\nQuoted by Yoko Ono, \u201cPOSITION PIECE\u201d (1963 summer).<\/p>\n

Yoko is SO weird and it’s not a culture gap. Japanese think she’s weird too. Very weird. Eccentric, Over the top… It is doubtful that anyone really likes her or understands her at her home country either. She holds a very humanistic view but herself, viewed as part alien in seemingly all societies. Maybe that’s the charm. A very handsome woman in her youthful days and if she were only a man, then she would have been more accepted as some cool hip artist (still weird) with striking dark piercing looks. She’s no more an artist than Andy Warhol is questioned as a “real” artist. She actually can sing in tune and she actually can sing beautifully but chose to screech into the microphone to a point you want to wring her neck or plug your ears in utter disgust. She’s always making us feel mostly uncomfortable – but John Lennon understood her “genius” and loved her…<\/p>\n

She does not care – and that’s her beauty. That she does not care what people think of her. No YELP rating is going to deter her from expressing herself. Even if I am full of judgments, one of which is – Emperor(well, Empress, in this case) has no clothes…she is not the least bit concerned. She doesn’t care about the detractors and the critics and the haters. Now, that’s freedom for real in action. <\/p>\n

She’s 80, yes, EIGHTY (and a half) now. Must be the YOGA.
