NEWSPAPER ARTICLE FROM The Sun (U.K.): =========================================================================== = SAM: MY TOP THREE LOVERS SEXY Sam Fox today opens her heart to The Sun about the three men who have been her greatest lover. The 28-year-old former Page Three favourite says: "To me, great sex comes from great love, not great lust. At 28, you realise sex for the sake of it just isn't worth it. Sam also reveals why she WON'T be tying the knot with Aussie businessman Peter Foster. SAM FOX has known many men in her life, and she has been fancied by millions of others. But Britain's most famous former Page Three girl says there are just three lovers who hold a special place in her heart. In an exclusive Interview, Sam, who wants to sing for Britain in this year's Eurovision song contest, tells all about matador Rafi Comino, Kiss guitarist Paul Stanley and Aussie businessman Peter Foster. Stunning Sam, 28, says there's no man in her life now and reveals: "It's true I've dated a lot of fellas but I haven't bonked many. "To me great sex comes from great love, not great lust. At 28, you realise sex for the sake of it just isn't worth it." She confesses that since she lost her virginity at 17 she has never been short of offers. And she has never regretted saying Yes to Latin lover Rafi. Sam says: "Our affair was deeply passionate. We were powerfully attracted to one another but his family were like royalty in Spain. "In fact I was never even introduced to his parents. "I think they thought he had his career as Spain's No 2 matador and I was a flighty thing leading him astray. Nonetheless, it was a great and very romantic time." She recalls how the passion started. "I was entertaining at a Spanish show business gala. The audience was full of celebrities, but I saw him out of the corner of my eye. When the time was right I danced from the stage on to his table and sang to him. He handed me a single red rose which I put between my teeth and waltzed off. He came backstage later to be greeted by my very protective minder, who reluctantly allowed him to see me. The affair started immediately. I was living and working in Spain, but wherever he was he would send a private to pick me up. Everywhere went he was surrounded by about 15 minders. And when we went out for dinner he would hire the entire restaurant. "But while I admired his ambition, I could not stomach bullfighting. I went to see him once and it was horrific, I threw up. I didn't want to hurt him, but he knew how I felt. He taught me so much about Spanish culture which I appreciated, but ironically it was the fact that he was treated like a pop star that I found difficult to deal with. "The girls just flocked around him. After six months of intense passion we realised that it was great and lovely but it wasn't going anywhere. We split up without any tears and I still hear from him from time to time. "When I'm attracted to a man it's not just his looks or his body that I fancy, he's got to have a brain. Believe me, I meet a lot who don't. I like to learn something from the men I date." Sam says the man who taught her most was Paul Stanley, whom she met when she was recording in New York. She says: "He was told that I was re-mixing a tape and started to drop into the studio over the next couple of weeks. "I could tell he was keen. Eventually he asked me out to dinner and sparks flew. "I had to leave America and come back to England for a while but when I went back we got together again. "I never lived with Paul, I'm not sure I'm ready to live with anyone even now but we spent a lot of time together. We flew to one another's gigs and I was a great fan of Kiss. "He wasn't anything like the rock 'n' roller that you would imagine. He's a very quiet and sensitive man. "The link between us was music. We also loved going to the theatre and movies. It lasted for two years and to be honest, it was all a bit on and off. "I lived in an apartment with my international manager, Debbie, who was also my best mate. We just had a real laugh, and I never took anything seriously. "But Paul understood that and the love affair ended when I came back to England. "There were no tears shed. Paul and I still keep in touch with each other. I know that if he were to come back to England then we'd go out and have dinner together old times sake." Sam's third great love was Australian Peter Foster. And she exclusively reveals to The Sun today that she has decided not to accept his recent marriage proposal. Sam says: "He was the love of my life and I know that he is still in love with me. When he proposed I was extremely flattered and I still am. "But I don't know if we will ever tie the knot. It's one of those things that will develop if it's meant to. I've told him I have my career to think about and we will take life day by day. "When we first met nine years ago he proposed. Back then I felt I was too young to be committed to anyone and I still do." Their love was rekindled 18 months ago when Peter started faxing her love letters from Australia. Sam says: "Peter really worked hard at trying to convince me that he was besotted with me and I honestly think he was. "He is a persuasive and charming man and despite what people say, I like him a lot. "He's also ace in the art of seduction. When we met he would always send me champagne and strawberries to me dressing room. "He knows I like to sip champagne through crushed strawberries to take away the acidity. "On my first gig, in London last year, a magnum champagne and a box of strawberries were delivered to my room. I was so high that night from performing I didn't twig who they were from. But Mum clicked and said, 'Peter's back then'. Mums are always right, aren't they? I was bowled over, I knew he'd been trying to track me down when I was working in Bosnia, but to find me at a little London club was just amazing. "I am a very different girl to the one he knew. People change in seven years, perhaps I have changed more than him. "I'm totally independent these days and I'd hate a man trying to possess me body and soul. "I like being footloose and fancy free. But I suspect not many men cope with the idea of that. =========================================================================== = FROM FOXROCKS@AOL.COM (What Samantha Has been up to lately) =========================================================================== = I've had quite a few people ask me what Sammy has been up to lately. Working with Lorainne and Chris, Sam's backing singer and guitarist, respectively, Sam's been writing and recording lots of songs. Most are eight track demos at this point to entice another record company to sign her. And a couple are interested... Sam playes a few show dates in Europe every now and then; enough to keep her band together. But she's not pushing the singing and acting careers too hard right now. She likes taking things a little slower and having the time to build up some real freindships. She also spend a lot of time with her Mom. shadowm@rci.ripco.com asked me to write about Sam's conversion to Christ. Really we (the den) can't believe how everyone's making such a big deal about it! Sam was a singer before she ever became known as a topless model, and likewise she was raised Roman Catholic before becoming the 80's #1 "Naughty Girl." Besides, all that was image anyway, not the real Sam. There was no magic conversion experience for her. Sammy met a woman working on the "Fighting Fit" workout video and after many talks, they became friends. This woman was a regular Church-goer and while talking with another friend, they invited Sam to come along with them to a service. Afterward, she felt pretty good about it. She went a few more times and then got serious attending Bible study classes and the like. It was a revival of what she grew up with, not some spectacular conversion of a lusty woman or the desperate act of a lost soul. Believe me, she's sincere about it. Hmmm, I've heard from two people both claiming to have founded this group! Both Nick in Derby, UK and Shiloh from Canada say they put the bytes in motion. I won't pretend to know how a newsgroup comes about, but whomever is correct, I'm glad we found each other. The Club's got several hundred members worldwide, but they're a quiet bunch. It's encouraging to read stuff from other people with their heart in the right place. And as for all those "bumping into" jokes a while back: If you really want to get your pulse racing around Sam, try DRIVING with the woman! I'm still here so I guess she's safe enough in that black BMW, but I began to see how she might have failed the test three times! Combine her "Maria Andretti" piloting with the backwardness of UK roads and you can guess how deep I had my knuckels dug into that car seat. ;-> Till next time, J.D. for SFFC ==================== F O X R O C K S ================== --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - This FAQ may or may not contain errors, omissions, etc. If you happen to notice any information that needs to be added, changed, or deleted, please feel free to e-mail: AP296@TORFREE.NET *** END OF SAMANTHA FOX FAQ (Part 3 of 3)
