Sebastian Bach<\/a> has apologised for his relationship with a then 17-year-old Christina Applegate.<\/p>\n

The former Skid Row<\/a> frontman \u2013 who was recently announced as Dee Snider’s replacement<\/a> in Twisted Sister<\/a> \u2013 spoke about his time with Hollywood starlet Applegate after it hit the headlines again this week with the release of her memoir You With The Sad Eyes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Bach has spoken about the relationship before, boasting that he was “a hotter lay than Brad Pitt”<\/a> after Applegate had ditched her date Pitt for Bach at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards.<\/p>\n

In her memoir, Applegate says she was sickened to discover Bach had a one-year-old child when they were together and she also says she never slept with him.<\/p>\n

Responding to Applegate’s comments, Bach tells Billboard<\/a>: “I was a single guy on tour, in a band, and I met a lot of girls and I apologise if I hurt her \u2026 if I hurt anybody.<\/p>\n

“When you\u2019re young you get thrown into the whirlwind of rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, meeting a lot of people and you better hold on tight. It\u2019s like being on a roller coaster. It was a long time ago. If I hurt anybody, I apologise for it.”<\/p>\n

In her book, Applegate writes that she felt “out of control” when she learned Bach, who was 21 at the time, had a long-term partner and a child. She writes: \u201cWhat a dick. I had really started to like him.”<\/p>\n

She adds that she was grateful she hadn’t slept with him but was upset he had spent the night at her house.<\/p>\n

On leaving Pitt, who was 25 at the time, for Bach, Anchorman star Applegate says the Hollywood A-lister has since forgiven her.<\/p>\n

She writes: “Eventually, we agreed that I\u2019d been a child, and though he deserved much better, it was time to forgive the child who dumped him for the lead singer of Skid Row.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sebastian Bach has apologised for his relationship with a then 17-year-old Christina Applegate.
