Steel Panther frontman Michael Starr and his wife Jocelyn Saenz release video for duet of song “Shallow”
While some may be surprised that Steel Panther frontman Michael Starr is actually a married man and has children given the glam metal band members’ penchant for sexually charged lyrics and commentary at their concerts, Starr, whose real name is Ralph Saenz is married to Jocelyn Saenz who appear to have three children together. The couple recently released a video of themselves singing a duet of the song “Shallow.”
The YouTube video has the following caption:
“Life imitates art imitates life imitates art imitates life imitates art imitates life…
Apparently the husband is no longer a secret.”
Wikipedia states the following about Ralph Saenz (with slight edits):
