Former husband-and-wife team Jack and Meg White haven’t shared a stage since July 2007, during what Meg White accurately predicted was the band’s final show. However, a social media post from another Midwestern alt-rock duo has the online rumor mill buzzing as tonight’s ceremony draws closer.

Will Meg White Join Her Ex For the White Stripes’ Hall of Fame Performance?

Even at the peak of the White Stripes’ success, drummer Meg White remained something of an enigma. Jack White effectively functioned as the band’s mouthpiece, conducting most interviews.

“To me, [being recognized] is like if your boss came every morning and tapped you on the head to wake you up,” Meg told Nylon in 2007. “It’s like, not now.”

As the minutes tick by, fans are on high alert thanks to this Oct. 30 social media post from indie-pop duo Twenty-One Pilots. “meg and jack thanks for having us be a part of your induction to the rock and roll hall of fame.. no group more deserving than the freaking white stripes.. josh and i are working on seven nation army now, and hope to give it every bit of justice it deserves.. nov8,” the post read.

Naturally, many fans are now speculating that vocalist Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun will join the White Stripes onstage for their moment in the spotlight. And beyond that, everyone is now holding their breath to see if Jack White takes that stage alone or alongside his ex-wife.

Some Redditors were less optimistic. “Highly unlikely she shows. Zero chance she plays,” one wrote.

So, will the White Stripes reunite for the first time in 16 years? You’ll have to tune into Disney+ at 8 p.m. Eastern to find out.
