The White Stripes, consisting of Meg and Jack White, defined millennial garage band rock. Originating in Michigan, Jack White initially stated the two were siblings instead of a divorced couple so the media could focus on the music. After getting a divorce in 2000, the White Stripes churned out highly acclaimed albums. With Karen Elson on the scene in 2005, Jack married her in Brazil after naming a song and album in her honor ("Icky Thump"). The relationship between Jack and Meg is explored in this video.
