> Of all the players here I think the younger sister Bijou Phillips would be able to corroborate her story and [yet her reaction is not all that supportive.](http://perezhilton.com/2009-09-25-another-of-mackenzies-sisters-speaks-out-slams-her-hard)

From an [interview](http://www.indexmagazine.com/interviews/bijou_phillips.shtml) with Bijou in 2000:

BRUCE: Tell me about the new song you wrote — the one you were singing in the car on the way back from lunch.  
BIJOU: The one about my dad? It sort of speaks for itself. I’ve made this decision not to talk to the press about anything that’s gone on in my life, but just to write music about it. They can interpret it themselves.  
BRUCE: There seemed to be some improprieties going on. You’re talking about stuff in your music that’s pretty heavy. Has anyone articulated it for you in the press?  
BIJOU: No one has the balls to do it.  
BRUCE: I’ll do it.  
BIJOU: [laughs] It’s blatantly obvious.  
BRUCE: The refrain in your new song is: “He touched me wrong.” How much more blatant can you get?  
BIJOU: I really want his balls busted, but I also want to be able to say, “It’s just a song.”  
BRUCE: It’s not just a song.  
BIJOU: It’s just a song.  
BRUCE: In Celebrity Sleuth it says you have a “Daddy” tattoo on your butt, and there’s a picture of it.  
BIJOU: Yeah.  
She kind of dances around it a bit, but the implication seems to be that there was something hinky going on there.
