Iggy Pop obsessed with chairs

Los Angeles, March 19 (IANS) Musician Iggy Pop owns 34 chairs and sits on each of them every day.

The 68-year-old loves collecting furniture like chairs and makes it a point to sit on each one of them everyday, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I have 34 (chairs). I've had them longer than any of my human friends. So I make a habit of sitting in each one once a day. I have more chairs than sexual encounters I can remember,” ShortList magazine quoted Pop as saying.

Pop treats his chairs with care and makes sure he avoids emitting wind on his favourite furniture pieces, but has admitted he suffers from frequent flatulence when he is on tour.

"There's been a decline, I am 68 and things have gone downhill from when I was 21. I can qualify as an old frt. If I am at home, I frt very rarely but, If I'm out on the road, I'm frting all the f***ing time. I'm frting all through rehearsal for the end of rehearsal you push a lot of air so I am pushing and f*rting,” he said.

The musician has just released his new album "Post Pop Depression" which he recorded with Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders and Dean Fertita from the Dead Weather.
