Ever wondered why so many celebrities and politicians are seen with a black eye? Hmm, you haven't? Yeah, me neither to be honest.
But one person has! The Daily Mail reports that a Reddit user pondered about it on the online forum, writing: "It is bizarre as hell how many of them have black eyes. I grew up fighting, a LOT, even some bar fights and have had maybe one black eye in my whole life and not nearly as bad as those.
"Just like a stripe under my eye. Chances are slim to have so many in political 'high' places like that with one."

Er, right. Bit weird that.
Want to hear an even more outlandish potential reason as to why that is?! Sure you do.
It's because black eyes are a sign of the Illuminati, OBVIOUSLY.
Late author and Internet radio show host Sherry Shriner (who, by the way, also wrote a book called Interview With The Devil, in which she claimed to chat with ol' Lucifer) spoke out about what she believes is the link between these strange black eyes and the concept of 'soul scaping'.

According to the Mail, Shriner thought that TV personalities, government leaders and other popular entertainers had actually sold their souls to Satan.
"You cannot be on TV now, without signing on the dotted line. The bizarre recurrence of facial bruises on Illuminati politicians and entertainers has resulted in speculation that their souls have been replaced in a satanic ritual called 'soul scalping'," Shriner reportedly said.
I mean, whenever someone starts talking about the Illuminati - the powerful secret society that basically controls everything and is trying to establish a New World Order - you know you're in for a bizarre ride.

Back in February, Rihanna found herself under fire from more than two dozen Islamic groups in Senegal, who alleged she had ties with the Illuminati.
Sheikh Oumar Diagne told Jeune Afrique: "Rihanna does not hide it, she is part of the Illuminati, which is a branch of Freemasonry.
"Moreover, her arrival coincides strangely with the date initially planned for the Humanist and Freemason African and Malagasy Meetings [to be held in Dakar].

"We will demonstrate as soon as she leaves the plane. And if necessary, we will go to the Assembly, the Ministry of the Interior or the Presidency."
It's been popping off over in the political world, too. Earlier this year, Paul Hellyer (the former Canadian Defense Minister who oversaw that country's defense forces in the 1960s) came out and said that the Illuminati is very much a real entity and that, yes, it's controlling the world - making him the highest-ranking government official to ever do so.
Blimey. Illumi-WTF?
