Billy Corgan tries whimsy, gets found out, shot down
Billy Corgan tweeted a couple of days ago that new Smashing Pumpkins bassist Nicole Fiorentino is one of the girls on the cover of Siamese Dreams:
Just found out the weirdest news: our bass player Nicole (@xocoleyf) just admitted she is one of the girls on the cover of Siamese DreamThat would be an amazing coincidence, right?
The only problem is it isn't true, as Ali Laenger, the other girl on the sleeve, says so:
-- Nicole's age doesn't match. Doing the math, Nicole would have been about 14 when the pic was shot ... the girl on the album is clearly around 7.You could understand why Nicole might have wanted to be the girl on the sleeve. It'd be the only chance she's got of appearing on a half-decent Smashing Pumpkins record.
-- Ali says the photo was shot specifically for the album, and not a candid pic as Nicole has claimed.

I'm pretty sure that one of their albums (I think the greatest hits compilation) even actually had a copy of the proofs sheet for the cover of Siamese Dream. If it was a candid shot there were a few taken...
