Yeah, but pre-internet/social media rumors like that were hard to verify. His megalomaniacal tendencies were commonly known back then, but it was chalked up to being an eccentric genius. D'arcy (and Iha) were solid musicians in their own right and do not get enough credit. I remember the media trying to push really hard to make a sex figure out of D'arcy but she was too shy and reserved to play along.
I kinda feel like a lot of the original more melodic Smashing Pumpkins sound was due to D'Arcy/Iha and not Corgan, given that Corgan's later stuff just wasn't nearly as good, but I could be wrong.
