When I was around 4 or 5, I used to believe that the rock band KISS were really monsters and vampires, not understanding all the makeup and costumes. Often I had a nightmare that they were controlling this vacuum cleaner robot that was chasing me.

that Elvis lived in Walsall Town Hall. It had pillars at the front, so did Graceland so the confusion is understandable

If an artist was performing I always thought if their children needed something like a glass of water then the artist would have to stop performing and do it for them.

I used to believe my dad was Jimmy Buffet. Mostly because he said so, but also, if you look at the album cover, I forget the name, but the one with the sinking boat called 'Good Luck', Daddy looks just like that picture of Jimmy. He also had me half-convinced that he had to sing the lines of songs before the radio so they'd know what to say next. I though my uncle was Alan Jackson, and still think of him everytime I hear AJ. Again, similar looks. And I forget his name, but the *guy* who sings 'Thank God I'm A Country Boy'? Well, I thought HE was my AUNT.....

My Dad used to tell everyone that he taught Eric Clapton how to play guitar-"I taught him all he knew" and all the kids in my street believed him despite the fact my Dad could barley play guitar!

Back in the fifth grade we used to drop money into the heater in the girls bathroom for 'The Michael Jackson Fund'. We believed that Michael Jackson came to the school at night to collect his money and whoever put in the most would be considered a super cool chick. I remember one girl dropped a five dollar bill in and the next day it was gone. That was proof enough! No wonder the janitors were always so happy and had jingly pockets...

How much plastic surgery did we pay for?

When I learned that Rick Allen, the drummer from Def Leppard, had only one arm I can remember thinking, "Well, at least he plays drums and not something like the guitar where you need two hands!" As a small kid growing up, I only really heard the snare drum and cymbals in music and I was convinced that you only needed one arm to play drums properly!

I used to believe that Janet Jackson had a couple of ribs removed so that she would look fit. It sounded insane, but now I know it is. I guess some people were playa hating on her six pack.

Up to about the age of 8 i never always thought Michael Jackson was a sort of monster and not a human. I don't think i ever asked anyone about this either.So he scared me for quite a while!!!

I was a little boy when Elvis Presley died. When the news cam out that he had died of a heart attack, I did not know what that was, so I though he had died of a "hard attack."

I pictured Elvis getting killed in a swordfight with a bunch of bad guys.

Well, I COULDN'T BELIEVE that the Beatles were from another country. It seemed so odd that another country existed. And then I found out that my favorite band did DRUGS! Didn't they have D.A.R.E. But I kept on listening and my world expanded

I think I must've been about 7 or 8 when my Mom told me that pop stars were regular people. To this day, I still laugh whenever I conjure up images of pop stars waking up in the morning saying, "hey, we need groceries!"
