San Fransisco Weekly
February 25, 1998
A recent issue of San Francisco Magazine features an interview with Stephan Jenkins, lead singer for Third Eye Blind, in which the would-be rock star/sex symbol claims to be 28. But according to newspaper files, Jenkins has been 28 for the last two years. At one point, the Palo Alto native was 29 -- though as recently as last month, he was 28 again. So just how old is Jenkins, really? According to San Francisco voter registration records, 33. He turns 34 on Sept. 24. Oh, and he's not really "Stephan" either. In 1991, "Stephen" Jenkins registered to vote for the Green Party. The Euro version emerged three years later -- and registered as a Democrat. Last June, he emphatically told Examiner reporter Jane Ganahl: "I'm not Steve, I'm Stephan. Steve is the name of a used car salesman in Novato."
