Jonathan Davis born in Bakersfield, California on January 18th, 1971. His
nickname is HIV,
as a sort of agreement with the "faggot" term he was dubbed in high school.
He does not, in
fact, have AIDS or the HIV virus, although he does have the letters "H
I V" tattooed on his
upper left arm. He says "That tattoo has probably saved my life. You know
in situations
when passion and lust take over your brain.... I take a look at that tattoo
and I remember
that the virus is out there and you never know who's got it." On his upper
right arm is a
tattoo of a crazed bishop ripping up his skin: "The bishop is a symbol
of the atrocities that
religion is making. He's ripping up my skin to reveal Christ. It's more
of a symbol of how
corrupt religion is. I don't believe in any of it because of shit like
televangilism. Do you really
think that all that money really goes to charity?"
Jonathan recently married his girlfriend, Rene, on November 14, 1998. They
have one son,
Nathaniel Houseman (Houseman being Jonathan's middle name, as well), born
on October
18, 1995. He had been expecting (astrologically) a baby girl, but at delivery
Jonathan was
only slightly surprised to see, as he put it, "pink balls," and he had
to come away from the
girls name Salaam Dementia.
