Crowded House frontman Neil Finn has hit back at what he calls "absurd" and "invasive" rumours regarding his personal health. The musician, known for hits like 'Don't Dream It's Over,' dismissed claims about erectile dysfunction as "utter nonsense."
Finn, 65, addressed the speculation in a recent interview, expressing frustration over the spread of such personal allegations. "It's ridiculous that anyone would even speculate about something so private," he stated. "These claims are not only false but deeply disrespectful."
Celebrity Privacy Under Scrutiny
The incident highlights the ongoing challenges celebrities face in maintaining their privacy. Finn emphasised that such rumours are "not just harmless gossip" but can have real consequences for individuals and their families.
Fans have rallied behind the musician, with many taking to social media to condemn the spread of personal health rumours. "Neil Finn's talent and contribution to music should be the focus, not baseless speculation about his private life," one supporter tweeted.
A Storied Career
Finn, who co-founded Crowded House in 1985, has enjoyed a successful career spanning nearly four decades. The band, known for their melodic pop-rock sound, has sold millions of albums worldwide and continues to tour to packed audiences.
This isn't the first time the musician has spoken out against invasive media coverage. In previous interviews, Finn has criticised what he sees as an increasingly sensationalist approach to celebrity journalism.
As for the current rumours, Finn remains focused on his music. "I'm in great health and looking forward to our upcoming tour," he confirmed, putting the speculation firmly to rest.
