For every person legitimately claiming to be a member of the Four Tops, there are thousands who say the wildest, delusional shit about knowing famous people/being famous.

Morris is not an original member, but he joined the group in 2019.

Makes more sense with that info.

Exactly. If some dude came in and said he joined a band in 2019 that most people only recognize from the 50s, I'd think he was crazy too.

Imagine a bit into the future and your child has become a nurse. Then you hear that at the hospital the other day your child sedated Neil Diamond and threw a urinary catheter in him.

Edit: I was scrolling through my posts looking for life validation and realised I should add that sedation and catheterization are my invention and I knew nothing further of the story at the time of writing than what this headline said.
