It seems that a little birdie might have sung to federal investigators about bicyclist Lance Armstrongs illicit activities. Singer Sheryl Crow reportedly told the feds that Armstrong received a blood transfusion during a trip to Belgium in 2004, according to a 2013 book called Wheelmen, which details the doping conspiracy that propelled Armstrongs cycling teams. Rather than try to hide the transfusion from her, Armstrong was completely open about it, authors Reed Albergotti and Vanessa OConnell write, via the New York Daily News. He trusted that Crow would have no desire to tell the press or anyone else about the teams doping program. He explained that it was simply part of the sport that all cyclists were doing the same thing. Crow and Armstrong were dating at the time, and the singer and cyclist were later engaged, but they split in 2006.
