Chris Motionless of Motionless in White apparently wore a beanie recently on the ShipRocked cruise festival, and while people normally wouldn't think twice about a slight wardrobe change, the band's fans have their panties in a twist over it. So now, the singer has trolled the fans with a video about what's underneath the beanie.
Since the performance took place, people on Twitter have been questioning why Motionless wore a beanie during it, and speculating that he's "hiding something" underneath it or changed hair. He responded to a few of the tweets, assuring them that it's not the first time he's worn a beanie onstage, but the people demanded answers. It essentially turned into a meme.
One fan wrote that they'll be referring to it as "beaniegate" going forward, so the vocalist responded with a video to clarify the situation.
"So for those of you who have been freaking out on Twitter, asking me why I've been wearing a beanie on ShipRocked, or why I wore a beanie on our ShipRocked performance and have been since we've been out here, and are accusing me of hiding something under the beanie... I just wanted to set the record straight and hopefully put this to rest," the singer said in the video.
Motionless took the beanie off in a dramatic fashion, as if he were about to expose something, only to have another beanie on underneath.
"No big deal — I'm not hiding anything, nothing's going on. You all gotta let it go," he concluded.
