Treble Charger front man tells The Globe and Mail that explosive accusations contained in Deryck Whibley's newly released memoir are 'false allegations'
A prominent Sault Ste. Marie musician is being accused of sexual abuse in a new memoir that is making headlines around the world.
But in his new book— Walking Disaster: My Life Through Heaven and Hell — Whibley reveals for the first time what he says happened between him and Nori when Sum 41 was still an up-and-coming band from Ajax, Ont. He eventually became the band’s manager — on one condition, according to Whibley. “He wanted total control,” the book says. “He promised to protect us. We were so young and hungry that we believed him.”
“We were jammed in a gross bathroom stall and I was talking non-stop, when he reached over, grabbed my face, and kissed me on the mouth passionately,” Whibley wrote. “I was very confused. Was that OK? Was I upset? Did I like it? Was he gay? Was he just high and being crazy? So many thoughts were coming at me so quickly that I couldn’t comprehend them.”
