Ian Mcculloch - Mcculloch's Multiple Personalities

ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN frontman IAN MCCULLOCH has a secret he's been hiding from his legions of fans - he battles multiple personalities.

The rocker admits he's been hearing voices in his head since long before his rise to fame, and says on any given day one of eight versions of himself might come to life.

MCCulloch reveals all about his split personality in a forthcoming memoir, and is even dedicating a chapter in the tome to his bouts with social dysfunction.

The star doesn't make it clear if the condition has been diagnosed, but tells New York magazine, "One of the chapter titles is Hiding From Jekyll. I’ve had all these voices in my head my whole life.

"I used to say that there were at least eight different versions of me. One was MAC 8, who my manager and best friend experienced. People have said he’s the scariest thing they’ve ever seen.

"MAC 3 is the best - he’s the sexiest, the funniest, and the most confident."
