Evan Dando Hospitalized After Allegation He Sent Unsolicited Explicit Videos

A representative says the Lemonheads singer is receiving mental-health treatment following a fan’s report of unsolicited explicit messages.

Overview

  • The Underground Bunker published a detailed account from a woman using the pseudonym “Dawn,” who shared screen recordings of videos and screenshots of messages she says came from Dando.
  • Variety reported a statement from Dando’s representative saying he was admitted to a local hospital for comprehensive care from mental-health professionals.
  • According to the woman’s account, two explicit videos arrived via X direct messages on Feb. 7 and 8 after a brief exchange that followed her earlier congratulatory note.
  • Reporter Tony Ortega notes the files were sent from Dando’s @Evan_Dando account and highlights a same-day photo showing the T-shirt seen in the clip as corroboration.
  • Dando’s X account was taken down, briefly returned, then appeared non-existent again, and no criminal charges or law-enforcement actions have been reported.
