Meg and Jack White, The White Stripes, pretended to be siblings. This much we know. Yet, there are many questions surrounding this odd situation that aren't so clear. Like when did they start? From their debut? De Stijl? White Blood Cells? Elephant? Get Behind Me Satan? Icky Thump? Did they ever stop? During the release of Fell in Love with a Girl, We're Going to Be Friends, Seven Nation Army, Blue Orchid? And, most importantly: Why? Why did the White Stripes pretend to be siblings? All this and more answered in this video.

It might be closer to say that he sees Meg as his soul sister. They have a bond that goes beyond simple labels, its not just that they were a couple that divorced but still want to be friends, they're something that you can't easily define.

I have a friend, me and him dated. It NEVER felt right but we knew we were more than friends, not romantically but just a deep bond/feeling. I currently refer to him as my brother, he IS my family. We've been through alot and done alot together. What family is isn't just defined by blood, it's defined by experience and the true bond you feel with someone. I feel like that's how it was for them aswell.

It's interesting that it was Jack who introduced Meg as his sister. Meg never commented on it. At that time, people used to think that she was living in Jack's shadow, remaining silent by his side. I watched the documentary Under Great White Northern Lights and there is a scene that defines Meg's personality. I remembered that Jack commented, “Meg, can you tell the world something once and for all? and Meg replied: “I'm quiet. What can I say? I would say that you have nothing to do with it." That was Meg White a very shy and introvert woman.

Jack has said on multiple occasions that "the white lie" that they were brothers was necessary, in my opinion, I agree with him, siblings usually have a special musical chemistry with each other and can complement each other's voices and fans love that. On the other hand, siblings have been confused as a couple too creating gossip and confusion among the fans. For example the band Fleetwood Mac and its members Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham were dating when they joined the band, but when they broke up many fans thought the couple argued more like brother and sister. We are fans and we create our own reality about our favorite musicians. Great video, btw.

I think Jack didn't want the public to know that he was in a relationship with her. When that happens, female fans may lose interest in the artist, but if they think he's single, they consider him everyone's boyfriend. There is a bit of curiosity or illusion in that. I do not know why. My favorite song of the duo is "fell in love with a girl", in which the guy knows that she is precisely as in love with him as she is with every other boy in the world but he can't think with common sense and even knowing she is having others in her life he doesn't consider it cheating.

Considering the bluesy nature of their music, I feel like the brother and sister thing is more symbolic for him. Like when a friend calls their best friend their brother, especially in the south. I think it’s more like that rather than anything else. The only reason why it’s weird is because of the marriage certificate and the fact men and women can’t just be friends for some reason.

Fans love gossip, but the duo from the beginning used controversy as a strategy to gain notoriety and surround themselves with a halo of mystery when they became known as brothers. According to Jack they did it.... "to give more importance to their music and that the press did not put their relationship in the first place". Honestly, they have the merit of having become one of the most important musical duos of their time and transcending the music to this day.

Great video Marc. Jack told to the New York Times magazine that he doesn't want to define roles for the women he knows...." You're my wife, you're my girlfriend". Then, why he defined Meg as his sister? I think he controlled Meg but I don't know for sure. They made good rock, btw.

One of my favorite bands of all time.. And I came into the band knowing that marriage - divorce - sibling thing.. to me, the “sibling” energy played into the innocent (almost naive)/rough-around-the-edges/“made it at the house while our parents were out” sound.. the “married, but divorced” thing added some tension/passion to the presentation (especially in live shows).. the “white” surname exchange just worked so well with the band name and peppermint aesthetic.. and I mean, the best artists (to me) are a little weird and not to be understood completely.. I always liked that about them (even the fact that they broke up put a nice bow on their run and catalog).. They just hit the perfect mix of EVERYTHING.. lightning in a bottle.. chemistry at the highest level.. real life rock n’ roll shit.. possibly the last of their kind

The Carpenters, the Jackson Five, the Jonas Bother, are other successful siblings with their musical partneship. Why did the White Stripes lie about this? It seems to me that although Jack has responded about that, he has not told the true and we are not going to know that at this point.

Just a note because I always have to say something about Weezer. The White Stripes shared the stage with them in 2000 at Spaceland, but the band were well known until the following year. I'm not a fan of the White Stripes but if Weezer is involved I have to mention it. Thank you MarcbutEvil for another great video.
