There is a picture of Pope Francis spreading online where he wore a "Black Sabbath" shirt. The image is accompanied with a caption "What if I told you pope Francis used to be a metalhead? This guy just keep getting cooler."

The image came from i.mgur.com. 9Gag also has obtained this photo. It is not sure if the photo is legit or was just photoshopped. A user posted an i.imgur.com image on Reddit. The posted image created a long conversation thread, A user under the name of InfoSponger, commented "So sad when the photoshop lie becomes the truth huh?"

His/her comment was followed up by many replies. VROF said, "I knew it was to good to be true. He was a priest in his youth and not a metal head. Who would have guessed?" And bacon_nuts said, "He was a nightclub bouncer, so it's not impossible that the picture would be true."

In 2013, Pope Francis revealed he used to be a bouncer. This could be the reason why some people think it might be possible that he used to be a metalhead  just like what bacon_nuts said, "it is not impossible that the picture would be true."

Based on Daily Mail UK report way back in 2013, Pope Francis worked as doorman when he was a student. He kept troublemakers out of a bar in Buenos Aires.

Based on Catholic news, the Pope told a group about his previous work when he was young. Then soon, he began teaching literature and psychology. His previous works taught him how to get people back into the church.

Pope said, "always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope."

"Hypocrisy is a grave sin," he said. The Pope was referring about the importance of credibility which was "in helping the church grow, not through proselytism, but by attraction."

If this photo is legit, would Vatican's choir embrace deathmetal core?
