Jack WhiteAKA John Anthony Gillis

Born: 9-Jul-1975
Birthplace: Detroit, MI

Gender: Male
Religion: Roman Catholic
Race or Ethnicity: White
Sexual orientation: Straight
Occupation: Musician

Nationality: United States
Executive summary: Frontman for The White Stripes

Fellow band-member Meg White is his ex-wife, not his sister, as is commonly supposed. They were married in 1996 in South Lyon, and Jack adopted his wife's last name. The "error" of their sibling-hood is perpetuated by the band itself, for unknown motive, perhaps as a publicity stunt of some manner. But a marriage certificate exists -- Entertainment Weekly printed it. Births seven months apart are also difficult to explain biologically.
