This is a Polaroid I took of my sister Meg White with an SX70 Polaroid camera from the 1970s. We couldn’t use it for anything we needed to release from our band The White Stripes because she was wearing leopard skin. I think she was just getting settled in before we did some other photos in our rehearsal room, but what a beauty. Sometimes I wonder if Meg is or was real; maybe I made her up and all that happened with us in our band and our travels was in my head. Perhaps it was just me on stage by myself the whole time with a six-foot rabbit named Meg. That would only explain some things, though. What a wonderful drummer to play with, so loud and simple. But looks can be deceiving. Who could tell from this picture that she’d murdered hundreds of people? She didn’t, but if she had, you couldn’t tell from this picture. Anyhow, I was going through some old boxes recently and I came across this photo so I took it out and put it on my refrigerator. I haven’t had a girl on my refrigerator since last Halloween, but that’s a different story.

So let's say I'm not a white stripes fan, but I want to be! What album would you recommend starting with? The artist I listen to are the black keys, arctic monkeys, vampire weekend, marina and the diamonds, and cage the elephant.

i'd say have a listen at Elephant

When Meg sat down at the drums, that was a really important moment. We recorded on a little two-track, but it sounded heavy and full and simple. It was a marriage — Detroit garage rock, the Velvet Underground, blues — and it all came together as a platform where I could start writing. It was finding Meg.

Jack and Meg are meant for each other. I have never seen Jack happier with anyone else besides her. Not Alison. Not even Karen. I hope that they grow old together, as best friends, and continue to love each other for eternity.
