From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Meg White, in addition to drumming for The White Stripes, occasionally takes over vocal duties for Jack White

.

Megan Martha "Meg" White (born December 10, 1974) is the drummer for Detroit band The White Stripes, a duo consisting of herself and Jack White. Though they often claim to be brother and sister, the truth is they were married in 1996 and Jack took Meg's last name. They divorced in 2000.

Meg plays drums while Jack plays the guitar and usually sings. While Jack is the nominated lead vocalist of the pair, Meg took vocal duties on "In the Cold, Cold Night", from the band's fourth album, Elephant. In addition, Meg has another lead vocal performance on the ninth track from the band's fifth album, Get Behind Me Satan, entitled "Passive Manipulation".

Loretta Lynn, who befriended the pair whilst collaborating with Jack in 2004, has said that Jack and Meg may have been married not once but possibly twice.

She appeared with Jack in one of the more memorable segments of Jim Jarmusch's 2003 film, Coffee and Cigarettes.

On October 7th, 2005 a picture was posted on the Nine Inch Nails website of Meg with the band, leading some to speculate that she had been enlisted to replace drummer Jerome Dillon. 2 hours later, however, a picture was posted of the band with a different drummer, and Meg never got a chance to drum with Nine Inch Nails.
