Daisy Jones and the Six is rumoured to be loosely based on the musical career of Stevie Nicks within the Fleetwood Mac band, and the singer herself thrilled fans as she gave her own verdict on it.
Taking to Instagram, the 75-year-old revealed she had binged the Amazon Prime show twice now, as she penned: “In the beginning, it wasn’t really my story, but Riley [Keough] seamlessly, soon became my story.”
Sharing a photo of the cast as they took a bow at one of their fictional concerts, the music legend added: “It brought back memories that made me feel like a ghost watching my own story. It was very emotional for me.”
In a touching moment, Stevie referred to her late bandmate Christine McVie who tragically died in November: “I just wish Christine could have seen it. She would have loved it.
“Hopefully it will continue…”
Fans, who had been anxiously awaiting Stevie’s review of the show, clambered in the comments section as some of the show’s own stars added to the noise.
Actress and Elvis Presley’s granddaughter Riley Keough was one of the first to comment, conveying her shock and appreciation at Stevie’s words with a string of heart-eyed and gasping emojis.
Her co-star Sam Claflin shared “blessings” with the singer while the official Daisy Jones & The Six Instagram page left a delicate heart in the comments.
The series’ producer, Reese Witherspoon, added: “Oh my stars, Stevie!! This means the world to the whole Daisy and the Six team! Thank YOU for cutting the path!”
The series is based on a 2019 book of the same name by Taylor Jenkins Reid, which follows the rise and fall of a fictional rock band in the 1970s.
It first made headlines for its remarkable similarities to the story of Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Fleetwood Mac.
The author has since admitted he had been inspired by the band after seeing Fleetwood Max perform Landslide on their MTV special when she was just 13 years old.
The 39-year-old explained in a post for Hello Sunshine: “When I decided I wanted to write a book about rock ‘n’ roll, I kept coming back to that moment when Lindsey watched Stevie sing Landslide.
“I wanted to write a story about that, about how the lines between real life and performance can get blurred, about how singing about old wounds might keep them fresh.”
