Rivers-Cuomo was born with legs of equal length, but as he grew taller, his left leg became nearly two inches shorter than his right. After the success of “The Blue Album,” Rivers-Cuomo underwent the Ilizarov surgery to correct the problem.

This meant he had to have surgery to break the bones in his leg. Afterwards, he had to wear a steel brace for months and “stretch” his leg himself four times a day. Rivers-Cuomo said the experience was like “nailing” his leg.

Despite his popularity, Rivers Cuomo did not like the boredom and loneliness of traveling. He also developed a “strong inferiority complex” towards rock music, saying, “I felt my songs were very stupid, and I wanted to write deep, strong, beautiful music.”

In March 1995, Rivers Cuomo underwent a major operation to lengthen his left leg, which was 44 mm shorter than his right leg. To do this, the leg bone had to be broken during the operation. Afterwards, the patient had to wear a steel brace for several months and undergo arduous rehabilitation.

During Weezer’s hiatus for the release of Pinkerton, Rivers Cuomo formed Homie and performed what he called “silly songs” for his “country band.” They planned to release an album, but only released one studio recording, a song called “American Girls.”
