GREEN DAY FRONTMAN ENTERS REHAB After On-Stage Meltdown



Green Day's front man Billie Joe Armstrong is entering rehab for substance abuse ... a rep for the band tells TMZ. 

The news comes just two days after Armstrong went ballistic in Vegas during a performance at the iHeart Radio Music Festival. He was videotaped screaming obscenities, slamming Justin Bieber and violently smashing his guitar on-stage. 

The band's rep tells TMZ,  "Green day wants to apologize to those they offended at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas." 

The rep adds, "The band regretfully must postpone some of their upcoming promotional appearances.“

I read "slamming Justin Bieber" and thought he threw him repeatedly on the pavement or something

xtinkerbellax 23rd-Sep-2012 08:11 pm (UTC)
Yea, I pictured him like, slamming him into a wall or something.

lol me too
nathanandbarry 23rd-Sep-2012 08:58 pm (UTC)
That's what I thought at first. I was like. . . did how did he get into a physical altercation with baby Biebs?
poop_of_death 23rd-Sep-2012 09:16 pm (UTC)
I was like "I knew he was a bottom"
stormer1_1 23rd-Sep-2012 09:36 pm (UTC)
cackling
lilako 24th-Sep-2012 03:47 am (UTC)
I'd hoped he'd smashed the guitar ON him, tbh
thevml 24th-Sep-2012 05:04 am (UTC)
That's not a reason to be sent to rehab! XD
bralesss 23rd-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
tssss
emmapcz 23rd-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
woah. good luck to him
demi32 23rd-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
Good for him. I really like this group, but when my brother told me how he acted in starbucks some years ago it didn't surprise me much his reaction on stage at the iheart radio festival.
agoraphobicorgy 23rd-Sep-2012 08:03 pm (UTC)
Details on the Starbucks encounter?
sheinhardt 23rd-Sep-2012 08:59 pm (UTC)
don't leave us hanging! what happened?
kol123 23rd-Sep-2012 09:03 pm (UTC)
did he pee in a cup?
enema_recipe 24th-Sep-2012 12:07 am (UTC)
lololol best comment ever. Even if it isn't true, I will choose to believe this.
norway 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
Well that escalated quickly.

I do hope he's okay, though.
flaca 23rd-Sep-2012 08:44 pm (UTC)
lol that anchorman pic/meme has been everywhere, including tumblr ... reddit is not the center of the internet
norway 23rd-Sep-2012 08:48 pm (UTC)
Nope. Isn't it like 4chan or something? I avoid that corner of the internet.
flowerssleeping 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
hope he gets better
snuffyqui45 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
omg really?

And his "freakout" on stage wasn't that bad but w/e. I hope he's okay
trikc 23rd-Sep-2012 09:15 pm (UTC)
I thought it was pretty bad. I mean in the way that shows he's a self entitled prick who thinks he's better than people.
scotprincess 23rd-Sep-2012 09:29 pm (UTC)
I was there and he wasn't self entitled. Usher went 25 minutes over so they cut 20 minutes from Green Day. Billie Joe was 100% in the right.
lilako 24th-Sep-2012 03:49 am (UTC)
This.

"I've fuckin' fuckin' fuckin' fuckin' been fuckin' here since fuckin' 19 fuckin' 80 fuckin' 8 you fuckin' bitches and all you fuckin' give me is one fuckin' minute? fuckin'

so I'll fuckin' smash your fuckin' guitar cause who fuckin' needs that fuckin' guitar anyway"
robertsbox_xo 23rd-Sep-2012 08:03 pm (UTC)
omg im cringing
fear_toxin 23rd-Sep-2012 09:50 pm (UTC)
Just like Gwen Stefani did when ge said if he wasn't married, he'd fuck the shit out of her.


Video needs to appear of this.
autumn1234 23rd-Sep-2012 08:05 pm (UTC)
I think this is awesome
apatheticturtle 23rd-Sep-2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
this was funny until the rehab news came out ;~;
parisdiorchanel 23rd-Sep-2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
I get he's pissed off. I would be too, but jfc this behavior. Look at your life choices.
ritzyroxie 23rd-Sep-2012 08:08 pm (UTC)
omw

The Beiber shade is beautiful, tho.
hellaine 23rd-Sep-2012 08:08 pm (UTC)
uhg i hate when people destroy instruments.
hotcement 23rd-Sep-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)
I don't think it's that bad... in any case he has a point.
yououghtaknow 23rd-Sep-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)
well then
saikaro_x 23rd-Sep-2012 08:13 pm (UTC)
i bet the officials/event planners at this event just rolled their eyes and sighed, "rock stars..."

die2nitelive4ev 23rd-Sep-2012 08:17 pm (UTC)
I'd do this completely sober. They fucked GD over so IDK how he was supposed to react
snuffyqui45 23rd-Sep-2012 08:18 pm (UTC)
W/e that was hilarious.
redsprings 23rd-Sep-2012 08:19 pm (UTC)
Still agree with what someone said in another post; he should have just kept playing.
merenwen17 23rd-Sep-2012 08:25 pm (UTC)
lady_leia_solo 23rd-Sep-2012 08:25 pm (UTC)
He was right though. I'd be fucking pissed as hell too.
stellawuzadiver 23rd-Sep-2012 08:30 pm (UTC)
The world owes me, so fuck you
calichaos 23rd-Sep-2012 08:36 pm (UTC)
that was glorious and true wish this rehab thing is for other issues and not because his handlers told him to do so
bordellos 23rd-Sep-2012 08:39 pm (UTC)
well, that's embarrassing.
maroontalic 23rd-Sep-2012 08:40 pm (UTC)
This is just sad now.
smashy 23rd-Sep-2012 08:41 pm (UTC)
did he lie tho
ectypes 23rd-Sep-2012 08:43 pm (UTC)
what an entitled asshole

go figure out your life situation, dude. you are not as cool as you think you are.
hr0nk 23rd-Sep-2012 08:57 pm (UTC)
Holy shit. I wonder if he was forced to go into rehab after this, or if it was a personal decision. Dookie is still one of my favorite albums, I will make my kids listen to that shit.
anna_bea2 23rd-Sep-2012 08:58 pm (UTC)
lol @ the drummer just awkwardly standing there
whataboutdasha 23rd-Sep-2012 09:00 pm (UTC)
idk I think it's pretty pathetic behavior tbh
pimentoplane 23rd-Sep-2012 09:03 pm (UTC)
I thought this whole rant was pretty fucking awesome (lbr, rihanna, justin b, usher <<<<<<<<<<< GD) until this news about it being a substance abuse related meltdown came out. :(
devetu 23rd-Sep-2012 09:07 pm (UTC)
i kind of love it. he's a man, his delicate ego was offended so he had a mantrum. it's quite adorable, actually.
odeeryme 23rd-Sep-2012 09:10 pm (UTC)
LMAO omg
bollyhood 23rd-Sep-2012 09:13 pm (UTC)
Gross, if he was working in a call center and did that with the keyboard he would be fired on the spot.
lostinshalott 23rd-Sep-2012 11:42 pm (UTC)
this reminds me of that episode of friends with ross's sandwich
ty_slilreject 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
Yikes, I hope he recovers.
dottiehinkle 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
At first I thought it meant that bieber was on stage and he was slamming him around lol, but then my mind finally figured out what I was reading.
angelmonster 23rd-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
It seems to really be the only thing to do when you have a melt down, rehab. Don't deal with it like us normal people do and get our own shit together.

Hopefully he is ok.
xtinkerbellax 23rd-Sep-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)
Well isn't going to rehab in a sense, getting your shit together? I mean if his outburst was drug related it makes sense.
oshunanat 23rd-Sep-2012 08:17 pm (UTC)
That's exactly what rehab is for.
americnxidiot 23rd-Sep-2012 08:17 pm (UTC)
yeah, ia. he's not claiming "exhaustion" like some celebrities. it says substance abuse. i hope he gets thing together :(
thegirlshateher 23rd-Sep-2012 08:25 pm (UTC)
Rehab is dealing with it....

I'm confused as to what you think rehab is.
maitressefleche 23rd-Sep-2012 08:50 pm (UTC)

celtic_thistle 24th-Sep-2012 12:15 am (UTC)
Yeah, except he's had problems with alcohol in the past.
testdrivegirl 24th-Sep-2012 02:22 am (UTC)
normal people go to rehab too
negative_fucker 24th-Sep-2012 09:18 pm (UTC)
There's nothing wrong with needing help.
givemethepeasx 23rd-Sep-2012 08:02 pm (UTC)
couldn't have come at a worse time. didn't their new album come out last week? or maybe that'll be a good thing for the record company.
tellmeimawreck 23rd-Sep-2012 08:04 pm (UTC)
It comes out this week, I believe. The 25th.
xzackb 23rd-Sep-2012 08:11 pm (UTC)
all publicity is good publicity
autumn1234 23rd-Sep-2012 08:42 pm (UTC)
"There is no such thing as bad publicity" - said someone who I'm too lazy to google rn
fauxparadiso 23rd-Sep-2012 08:11 pm (UTC)
There'll probably be fans that buy to see if there are any ~clues or signs~ this was coming in the lyrics.
genbu_no_miko24 23rd-Sep-2012 08:15 pm (UTC)
negl the thought of publicity stunt came to my head...

if its real I hope he recovers.
die2nitelive4ev 23rd-Sep-2012 08:18 pm (UTC)
totally not the band for pub stunts. I think they want to fix him before they tour in case he does this again.
ponpiri 23rd-Sep-2012 10:26 pm (UTC)
He's in a rock band. His fans and people who are nostalgic for the past are eating it up.
