If what Billy Corgan said during a recent appearance on The Howard Stern Show is to be believed, then the rocker has seen some things that can’t be explained by modern science.

The two got to talking about Corgan’s appearances on The Alex Jones Show, and when Stern said that Jones believes in “a race of lizard people,” that’s when Corgan got paranormal, saying, “Not to add to the conspiracy, but I’ve had paranormal experiences in my life that sort of lend itself into that category.”


After some encouraging from Stern, Corgan continued, “Let’s just say I was with somebody once, and I saw a transformation that I can’t explain.” When Stern followed up and asked if what he saw was a “person [transform] into something other than human,” Corgan responded, “Yes, I saw it. […] I was totally sober.”

“Imagine you’re doing something, and suddenly you turn around, and there’s somebody else standing there,” Corgan continued. “It’s hard to explain without going into detail, I’d rather not [go into detail].” He didn’t want to get into specifics about the incident, but he did say that the person who transformed “acknowledged it” when asked what was going on, and that the experience is “up there with one of the most intense things I’ve ever been through.”

In related news, Tom DeLonge is still really into aliens, and let’s not forget that some Australian fans claim to have seen Justin Bieber transform into a giant reptile back in March, because the world is a fascinating place.
