RIP
Wayne Static’s widow Tera Wray Static found dead of apparent suicide

Blabbermouth — Tera Wray Static, the widow of STATIC-X frontman and founder Wayne Static, was found dead late last night of an apparent suicide, a longtime associate of Wayne has confirmed to BLABBERMOUTH.NET. More details regarding her passing will be posted here as soon as they become available.

In a 2013 interview with Gotham News, Wayne revealed that his wife’s presence on the road at least partly contributed to the breakup of STATIC-X‘s classic lineup. He said: “Well, I wanted Tera on tour with me, so she was always with me. She was with me during interviews too. We love each other. I wanna have her with me at all times. She came on stage and danced for a few songs and… I think Tony [Campos, then-STATIC-X bassist] didn’t like that. I think it pissed him off. I think he thought, ‘She’s not in the band, she shouldn’t be here.’ But the reality of it was, we’d do interviews and she’d just sit there. He didn’t like the fact that she was around all the time. For all I know, maybe he thought he should’ve hooked up with her and ended up married to her, so maybe he’s jealous. I don’t know. I don’t fucking know. I could give a shit if we did an interview and his girlfriend was sitting next to us. The funny thing is, before we got married and she was a porn star, she rode with us on the bus for a whole year, [and] everyone loved her then. When she was a porn star, everything was awesome. Then we got married, and everything changed. I don’t know why.”
