Tawny Gives Money Support To David Coverdale

David Coverdale & Tawny Kitaen

In 2020 June, Tawny Kitaen has revealed some flash moments about her relationship with David Coverdale and stated that she gave money support for him. Also, opening up about their relationship, she stated that it was started “ironically.”

“Ironically, I started dating David [Coverdale],” she said. “He was two million dollars in debt to David Geffen at that time. I was working and had more money than David at that time, so I kind of supported us a little. And when I heard the album and I was allowed to go in and help mix the album… You know how when you sing different tracks, they give you a piece of paper and you pick the word from the best track.

So I was able to do that. And John Kalodner, who was the biggest A&R guy in the business, who works for David Geffen, in my ‘E! True Hollywood Story’ called me Yoko Ono — because I picked the album covers, I picked the single, I picked the photographer. I made the rule that no girls were allowed backstage, so the groupies must have hated me.
