Yoko Ono has denied that her powerful influence on her late husband, John Lennon, led to the split of his band The Beatles.
The Japanese performer insists that it was Lennon in fact who led her, and that she had a limited control over her late husband throughout his music career.
"Despite what people always say, I don't think I influenced John much," Contactmusic quoted her as telling Mojo magazine.
Ono says that Lennon knew how to deal with the world, a quality in him that she has always admired.
"But through him I discovered an incredible world. He was always dealing with the people of the world. That's a pretty interesting thing to do," she says.
