Jared Leto, frontman singer of 30 Seconds to Mars revealed that he once received a full human ear, which was mailed to him. He said that this was the strangest gift he had ever got through the post.

The fan mail note which was attached said 'Are you listening'. In the interview, Jared Leto said: "I never knew who it was, who is missing their ear out there".

All this came out when the band was speaking to London's Xfm. The obvious question was then asked of what he did with the body part, Jared replied: "I poked a hole in it and wore it as a necklace".

This goes to show how far some people are willing to go, most fans are very passionate about their favorite bands but how many would cut off their own ear?

Its not unknown for famous singers and musicians to be sent weird and wonderful items, the band always seem to be at the forefront of things when it comes to pushing the boundaries.  Even when it comes to fanmail, 30 Seconds to Mars have a bizarre story to tell.

To back this up, 30 Seconds to Mars have also just released their latest single 'Up in the Air'. It made headlines when it was launched the other day from outer space. The band teamed up with NASA and astronauts played the track from space, when a cargo mission was sent to the International Space Station with various types of scientific equipment.
