Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood Celebrates Birthday with Penis Cake

Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood is typically known for his shyness, but here's something that may make you reconsider your opinion of the floppy-haired six-stringer: he recently celebrated his 42nd birthday by digging into a massive penis cake.

That's an image of the phallic treat — which was served on a gold-framed mirror — above. As Consequence of Sound points out, Greenwood posted the photo on Twitter, writing, "In homage to Larry, Jeff & Funkhauser — an erotic birthday cake from Lucie and @huntingowls."

This is a reference to the Larry David comedy Curb Your Enthusiasm, in which Larry eats a penis-shaped cake served by his friend Marty Funkhouser (see a video below). Greenwood added that he would be indulging in a Curb marathon.

It's unconfirmed whether Greenwood used a fork to eat the sugary penis, or if he went Miley Cyrus-style and dove in face-first.
