Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong has checked in for Treatment After Onstage Meltdown.
It was just a matter of time. The lead Green Day singer went crazy just 2 days ago after his set was cut short at the iHeartRadio festival in Las Vegas.
Just like anything, it was all caught on tape. They took 20 minutes out of his act to make room for more mainstream acts of which included the likes of Usher.
When Billie Joe found out, he went crazy. When he realized that he had only 1 minute left instead of 20, he exploded into a rant, dropping more than 20 “F” bombs in that last minute before they shut his microphone completely off. It went something like this,
“You’re going to give me one minute? One f***ing minute? I’ve been around since f***ing ninteen eighty f***ing eight and you’re going to give me one f***ing minute?
‘I’m not f***ing Justin Bieber, you motherf***ers.’
Wow! Did he just take a jab at Justin Bieber? Yes he did.
After they cut his microphone off he then smashed up his guitar on stage like a true rock star!!
Green Day tried to apologize by releasing a statement after the incident,
‘Green day wants to apologize to those they offended at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas.
‘The band regretfully must postpone some of their upcoming promotional appearances.’
Despite being in rehab, Billie will still be making his appearance on The Voice as a coach – that’s because it was already taped over the summer. His episode of The Voice along with some promotional appearances were all going to coincide with this Tuesday’s release of Green Day’s new album “Uno” and their November 26th Tour. Hopefully he can pull himself together quick enough so the band doesn’t lose too much momentum around their album release.
