Mina Caputo came out as transgender in 2011 and is known as the lead singer of the metal band Life of Agony. Now, in a heartfelt video on Instagram, Caputo announces a detransition and the decision for a name change back to Keith Caputo.
"Yes. I'm off of hormones six, seven years now. And this January 2025, I am… my surgery has been booked to remove my fake breasts and I will be lovingly living in my divine male self. I've cured my gender dysphoria. It took many years, a lot of walking through the fire, but I rose above my misunderstandings of my soul and my spirit. That's a completely different topic and video, so I won't unpack all of that now. I just wanted to share with you guys, once again, that I am off hormone therapy six, seven years when A Place Where There's No More Pain was made with Life Of Agony. That was in 2016. And I've been existing in a different version of myself and a more healed version of myself."
"So, that's my big reveal - that, and I'm changing my name back to Keith."
