A small-time Nashville thrash metal rock band named Llorona shared this story on its Instagram page. They say that their vocalist “Diego” admitted to slipping the female hormone estrogen to another band member in an attempt to make himself look more manly in comparison, so he could “swoop in” and steal the other man’s girlfriend. He said he was obsessed with the woman. Diego had been slipping estrogen into the bandmate’s water for five months, causing the bandmate to start seeing a doctor for stomach ulcers, weight loss, and muscle fatigue, as well as mental changes. He is continuing to receive medical care to get his hormone levels back in balance. Diego has been kicked out of the band.
* They’ll know his hormone levels have normalized when he starts leaving the toilet seat up again.
* Probably the biggest upshot of all this is, the band’s next record is an album of Michael Buble covers. (or: Billie Eilish, Air Supply, Dan Fogelberg, Seals and Crofts, to pick a few)
* The first sign something was wrong was when he couldn’t stop watching “Mamma Mia!”
* My god, it’s the Geddy Lee incident all over again.
* Now Keith Richards is on the phone wondering where he can score some of that stuff.
