This is musician Katie Melua

Y’know, she sings this

Well, doctors found a spider in her ear. LOOK AT IT

She writes:

So I had a rustling in my ear for a week and went to the doctor to have it checked out this morning. THIS little fella is what they found!

No no no no no.

Melua says the creature possibly got inside via her in-ear monitors

Basically I used these old in-ear monitors to block out sound on a flight, little spider must have been in them and crawled inside my ear and stayed there for the week. It was no hassle at all, apart from the occasional shuffling noises…

But don’t worry, it’s not as big as it looks

Though the thing looked TERRIFYING up-close on the doctor’s camera, once he took him out ( using a micro Hoover ) it was pretty small, and now its in this little test tube, alive and seemingly fine.

All’s well that ends well.
