The return of The Jinx is sweet information for followers of creepy true-crime documentary collection. There’s one very particular individual that it’s completely horrible for, nonetheless. That’s the previous frontman of Limp Bizkit, Fred Durst. The rap-rock pioneer (a reasonably questionable legacy) finds himself within the unenviable place of sharing a final title with the late, not-so-great Robert Durst. Mix that with the truth that on account of previous fame, loads of individuals type of keep in mind his title, and it’s a recipe for confusion.
Sadly for Fred Durst, the possibilities of everybody having undoubtedly realized to distinguish Dursts is small. This isn’t simply the confusion of an getting older relative, both. Even the Related Press has combined up the 2, having to challenge one of many biggest journalistic corrections of the previous two years. Fox Information made the identical mistake, although their batting common on accuracy isn’t that nice to start with.
It’s a assure that the red-hatted Fred has had about sufficient of this, provided that it’s his third go-around. The primary was clearly the unique Jinx, when the alternate Durst got here flying into the general public consciousness. The second was when Robert died, and other people instantly started mourning… Fred. Actually, we’ve bought phrase from Fred himself at how annoying this clearly grew to become, with him taking (in good spirits) a photograph of himself in a sweatshirt with the phrases “NOT ROBERT” spelled out on the entrance in daring font.
Look, Fred, I really feel for you, however there’s just one answer right here: a brand new Limp Bizkit album.
