Talk about a tough crowd! And people say the LA crowd is shit!
At least in LA people just sand there and stare at you with a blank face or
pretend they're too cool to enjoy the show. I'm glad to say I don't recall a time I've been to a show were a crowd made the artist leave the stage
soaked in urine!
And you thought Lana Del rey had it rough! British singer Cher Lloyd was
booed offstage at a V Festival yesterday (August 19) and reportedly left the
stage in tears after she was hit with bottles filled with urine.
The 'Swagger Jagger' singer was performing at the festival's leg
at Hylands Park, Chelmsford when she was struck by a bottle two songs into her
set and left the stage. She later returned, however, and told the
crowd:"It's hard enough being up here, but it's not nice having bottles of
piss chucked at you."
Lloyd, who became famous - at least in the UK- after appearing as a contestant on The
X Factorand released her debut album 'Sticks & Stones' in October last
year, later took toTwitter to comment on the fiasco.
"Thank you so much
for all the nice messages, shame that a couple of people had to ruin it,"
she wrote. "Unfortunately a glass bottle got thrown at me on stage.
Tomorrow is another day, big love to my brats!!!"
In October last year, the singer admitted that the public's shit talking almost made her quit music. Lloyd, who claimd that the campaign she found herself subjected to
made her scared to leave her house, said:
"I know people think I'm a bitch
but they don't realize I put on a massive front. When I go home and close the
door I break down, phone my mum and dad and cry. It got to the point when I
thought 'Why am I doing this?'"
She may be a bitch, and her music may suck, but I think she deserved to be soaked in urine about as much as Rihanna deserved to have her face busted by Chris Brown. I dunno, you tell me...
