Was Bijou Phillips Involved With Her Father Too????

Bijou Phillips came out with a harsh statement about her half-sister Mackenzie Phillips's supposed incestuous affair with their father, the late John Phillips of the Momma & The Poppas.

Bijou admitted that Mackenzie had told her about the affair, but that she doubted Mackenzie was telling the truth.

However, back in 2000, Bijou was singing a rather different tune, one that might implicate a camaraderie between the siblings not seen today.

Bijou was interviewed by Index Magazine about her Playboy cover, her failed attempts at being a serious actress, and her minor sucess with music.

The interviewer asks her about one song in particular, a song about her father:

"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."

Is it just a song? Now that we all know Bijou was knowledgeable about Mackenzie's relationship with her father, perhaps this is a gesture to her?

Or worse, perhaps she is speaking from her own experience? Some people are unable to face up to the truth. Could it be that Bijou had the same affair with her father that Mackenzie did?

Or is it just a song?

A sad reality either way, to know that even if it was just a song, it was one still rooted in a truth for a member of her family.

Very sad.
