Rock Star Trending Amid Mike Waltz War Plan Leak: The Connection to Creed’s Scott Stapp
The recent leak of war plans by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz has caused quite a stir, but amidst the controversy, a surprising figure has emerged into the spotlight – rock star Scott Stapp. Stapp, the lead singer of the band Creed, is actually Waltz’s brother-in-law, a connection that has left many scratching their heads.
The revelation of this family tie came to light after CNN’s Andrew Kaczysnki shared the information in a post online. It turns out that Stapp is married to Waltz’s sister, Jaclyn, although the couple filed for divorce last year after 18 years of marriage. Despite this, Stapp and Waltz seem to have a close relationship, with Stapp even performing at fundraisers for Waltz during his time as a Florida congressman.
As news of this family connection spread, social media users couldn’t help but turn the situation into a meme. Jokes and references to Creed’s hit songs flooded the internet, with users playfully poking fun at the situation. Even Kaczynski got in on the fun, joking that “Creed is good by the way.”
One user cleverly reworked the lyrics to Creed’s song “With Arms Wide Open” to reference the Signal chat controversy, while journalist Robby Soave penned his own version of the song with a humorous twist. The internet’s reaction to the news of Waltz and Stapp’s relationship has added a lighthearted touch to an otherwise serious situation, showing that even in the midst of controversy, there’s always room for a little humor.
