There's a meme going around which apparently claims NWA President Billy Corgan is the father of Taylor Swift and now he's taken to Instagram to deny that this is true.

Corgan wrote a LENGTHY post on social media which seems to be denying he's Swift's father, while at the same time challenging the perception of celebrity and their perceived personas.

"You have to love the Internets," he wrote. "Seems this is a new meme going around (someone sent this to me) where I guess the question is(?): Is T Swift my child. Hmm... I'll take the compliment of the comparison here despite the fact that I guess the jokes on me?"

He went on to say: "There simply is no end to how many are struggling, and it seems to have some connection to this modern or Digital Age culture we are living in. Where what's real is just as relevant, or so it appears, as to what is constructed, fake or false. Where a real you must negotiate time-space next to the more shiny or dark social media avatar of you, and so on and so forth up the food chain of governments and endless celebrity."

Billy then stated that he is, in fact, not Billy Corgan. Billy Corgan is a character he created. In reality, he is William Patrick Corgan. He explains:

There is NO such person as 'Billy Corgan'. He (BC) does not exist. Or, if he does exist (per these times), he is a creation from my mind to yours, and no different than a cartoon drawing of Batman or Sponge Bob. 

Trace the route: from 1967 to 1985 I was Bill Corgan, born WPC. My father was known to us as Billy, so he does exist, but the 'Billy' I speak of, the one who made records with SP and appeared on chat shows, was a creation. And I still remember the day around age 18 when I told someone, 'don't call me Bill anymore. I am Billy now...' Now why would I do such a thing? Because Bill, or Little Bill as I was known to the family, was beaten, harassed, broken and discarded over so many years, and in so many separate instances (let's say the number of disassociative events is in the thousands) that he (Bill) was WORTHLESS to me.
