Clues:
-1970s
-Brit POP (as oppose to Brit Rock or Brit Glam Rock or Brit Punk or Brit New Wave or Brit Soul etc.
Rules out creeps from The Who and Led Zep., talked about frequently on this board.
I can't think of any legendary British "pop" stars from the 1970s apart from Elton John or Cliff Richard - and I don't think they like 'girls.' Its also worth noting that The Sun are notorious for planting subtle clues - perhaps a pun on a well known song, for example - in articles where they can't name names.
Can anyone guess?

Yes. Tom Jones. There has been some allegations and whispers recently.

Oh, yes. You are right, I remember reading something about a girl in South Africa. I hope it is not Rod Stewart.

The woman in South Africa was talking about Tom Jones.

Yes and I think it will be him. I remember reading an article about him many years ago about how he loved his wife and family, but maybe he was not married at the time he committed his horrible heinous act. It was one of those lying glitzy articles, I guess about a lying pervert.

Some musical celebrities become overwhelmed with all kinds of women wanting their attention and throwing their underwear at them, so I could believe some of them leading double lives on the road. I'm not saying this woman as a 14 yr old did that, but he could easily have become transfixed in a sick mentality, which doesn't excuse it at all. It will be interesting to hear how this plays out. I remember hearing his music as a kid and watching my mom hide her interest in him.

His wife died recently, maybe he had some kind of arrangement with the press to protect her from this info coming out until now

I hope at this age, he has stopped doing what he did to this poor girl. I hope he has been blessed with an ED problem.

He's currently 'stepping out' (or schtupping for all I know) with Priscilla Presley

Well, that way he has it both ways. Have you looked at her face lately? She looks like a teen. So he can pretend and yet still date one of his own age. I can't see why anyone would want to go out with her. Her face is so distorted now. These people don't realize what they look like. They want to go back to their teen years. He looks no better.
