Phil Collins is known for his divine vocals, but could he actually be the son of God?
This is a bizarre question we never thought we’d have to ask ourselves, but a new statue of baby Jesus in Mexico is making us think again.
Nearly 22ft tall and weighing 143 stone (907kg), the statue is situated in a church in the central Mexican state of Zacatecas.
But it is generating a fair amount of buzz on social media because of its likeness to 1980s-era Collins, while his band Genesis were at their peak.
Although it seems, ahem Against All Odds that Collins is actually God, there's lots of people pointing out the resemblance on Twitter.
I don't know if something's in the air tonight, but this Baby Jesus looks a lot like Phil Collins: https://t.co/YpKr9NM3a1— John Law (@John Law) 1574286842
