Keith Richards has put a lot of things up his nose: cocaine, heroin, speed…and, as he recently admitted, his father!

Yes, the Rolling Stones guitarist recently admitted that he had snorted his father's ashes mixed with cocaine.

Nice.

"The strangest thing I've tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father," Richards was told NME. "He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared.... It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive."

Man, just when you thought Keith Richards was the most badass rock ‘n’ roller EVER, he goes and denies snorting his dead father’s ashes in a cocaine cocktail.

His manager told MTV News that the comment was "said in jest ... Can't believe anyone took [it] seriously."

Sorry, babe, just grasping onto a little thing called hope…just a little hope that rock still lives in this increasingly corporate world of ours…sorry for the hope…
