Ever since Twenty One Pilots introduced us to Ned in their "Chlorine" music video, fans have been making everything from fan art to their own plush Ned dolls. During a show in San Antonio over the weekend, frontman Tyler Joseph spotted a fan holding up her own Ned doll in the front of the crowd and halted the show immediately.
"Hey, can I have that?" He asked. When she handed him the stuffed animal, he examined it closely then held it up for the audience to see.
âMy little niece â her name is Mia, and sheâs a little over one year old â whenever she gets sick or sheâs tired, all she asks for â Iâm not even making this up â all she asks for is Ned. Over and over again,â he explained to the AT&T Center. âSo my sister will show her, my little niece, the video of âChlorineâ and it calms her down right away. And so thank you so much for giving this to me, because Iâm going to give her this â sheâs always wanted her own real Ned.â
After handing the doll off to a crew member, Joseph expressed his joy. "Iâm so happy now!" he exclaimed. "Did you make that? Or did you find that, or..? You made it! Alright listen â Mark, make sure she gets stuff..."
