Panic! At The Disco reveal horror of creepy fans' 'hairy cookies'

Brendon Urie given gift by fans in early days

 

Panic! At The Disco star Brendon Urie has revealed the bizarre extent the band's fans will go to get close to the Las Vegas stars - including baking their own hair inside cookies.

The band returned to UK charts this week with new album Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die, and during his recent London visit, Urie shared a stomach churning story of how fans once gave the band an unsavoury gift during the band's early days.

"It's good and bad that we have fans who are that dedicated - and some who go so far to be creepy," laughs Urie. "Sometimes it sucks, but that's like 1% of the time."

The incident, he reveals, took place in the band's early days, when they had begun to build a following but were still sleeping in a van on tour, or on floors of helpful fans.

"One time, these fans were really nice and said 'oh, we've made you these cookies, we know you guys don't have much money for food," he tells us.

"We decided to save them for our day off, and when the day off comes, me and our merchandise guy are hanging out and we start cracking into these cookies and they were awesome. I pulled a hair out of my mouth, but kept eating the cookies - like five, six, seven - get to ten cookies, and I should have seen the pattern after number three, but I didn't because I was so hungry.

"I kept pulling hairs out of my mouth and after No.10 I asked the merch guy if he was pulling hairs out of his mouth and he was.

"So we spent the rest of our time just cracking the rest of the cookies open and there were hairs in every single one. They were purposefully put in the middle of every single cookie - why? They wanted me to eat a part of them."
