In direct contrast to the blog I just posted about how smart Heavy Metal fans are, here's one about how stupid boy band members are.

They're British, they're called Rewind and, that's enough about them. Member James McElvar didn't agree with the fee to check his bag on a flight to Glasgow so, rather than pay 45 pounds, (about $70), James took everything out of his bag and put it all on. Six T-shirts, five sweaters, 3 pairs of jeans, two pairs of sweatpants, two jackets and two hats. Who the hell taught this kid to pack for a tour?

Shortly after the flight took off, Einstein suffered heat exhaustion, became violently ill and actually had a fit. Fortunately, an off-duty paramedic was on the flight and able to help treat the boy genius. Check out a picture of McElvar's Michelin man impersonation here.
