I'll take 'A Clue' for $1000, Alex


My 'Celebrities Unscripted' category has been getting a lot of attention lately. The latest story is about an interesting reaction to Pearl Jam's mutilation of an effigy of George W. Bush during one of their concerts. FOX News notes:

Angry Pearl Jam fans stormed out of a concert Tuesday after lead singer Eddie Vedder impaled a President Bush mask on a microphone stand and stomped on it on stage.

Earlier in the show, some concert-goers booed and others cheered as Vedder told the crowd he was anti-war and anti-Bush. But defacing the mask offended dozens of audience members.

Pearl Jam lead singer, Eddie Vedder completely missed the point, when he claimed that he supports our troops, but is still anti-war and anti-Bush. Performers need to realize that people only want them to do what they do best; perform. People that showed up to the concert expecting to hear some nice tunes, were instead bombarded with an anti-Bush tirade, images of decapitation, and an effigy of Bush's head on a stick. Rather than sit through the disgusting display, or show approval, some people chose to walk out. Go figure.
