Freaky Friday: Siamese Dream Cover Star Now In Smashing Pumpkins

That little girl on the left, she’s now in Smashing Pumpkins. According to Billy Corgan, at least.

Mad news alert. We all know the cover art for The Smashing Pumpkins ‘Siamese Dream’ - you know, the one with the kids on the cover. The one you can see above. Well, one of those little girls, she’s now in Smashing Pumpkins - at least according to Billy Corgan, and he wouldn’t make this kind of stuff up, right?

The Pumpkins frontman revealed the news last night with these tweets (yes, we know, but stick with it):

Just found out the weirdest news: our bass player Nicole (@xocoleyf) just admitted she is one of the girls on the cover of Siamese Dreamless than a minute ago via txtBilly Corgan

She said she didn’t want us to know because she thought maybe we wouldn’t let her be in the bandless than a minute ago via txtBilly Corgan

This is possibly the most insane thing we’ve ever read. Try and take it in without your brain exploding. You’ll fail.

(Of course, there’s always the chance Billy Corgan is winding us all up, but that would never happen. Would it. Would it? - Ed)

Update: We’re man enough to admit we might have been gamed by Mr C. Correct levels of sarcasm added above, but hey, let’s just pretend it is true. The world would be better that way.
