Morrissey Throws A Diva Tantrum During Music Festival!
Filed under: Music Minute
The Coachella music festival kicked off on Friday and the notoriously temperamental Morrissey was one of the performers on the first day.
Midway through his set, the vegetarian said, "I can smell burning flesh and I hope to God it's human," as the smell of barbequed meat from nearby food stands wafted through the air.
A few minutes later, Moz walked off the stage in the middle of Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others.
The "stench" was bothering him THAT MUCH!
He returned shortly afterward, saying, "The smell of burning animals is making me sick. I just couldn't bear it."
Thankfully, though, Morrissey continued on and finished his set, afterwards everyone went off and had some burgers and hot dogs!

I wonder if the smell of S**t after he is done getting his ass banged smells better to him?
haha! love me some steak!
lol i FCKING loff him!!!
LOL, who's that guy?
What's Morrissey without a fit? It's steak without potatoes. I love him so much!
nice haha, go burgers!
Fans, Big Fans, Big Fans that blow hard!
hahah Fans that blow hard! 
he's a little porky
what a fussy girl. seriously, it's fine and respectable that you are vegan or vegetarian. good for you, really. but you must respect other people's opinions and lifestyles as well. Since he is so "open-minded" - that includes when people do things (like eat meat!) that you don't agree with.
Sorry the charred meat didn't smell good - i bet it tasted delicious though!
The audience should have pelted him with hot dogs. Fucking intolerant queen.
hahahahahaha
Looks like he`s eating more than carrots to me…
that's not diva,
its understandable.
burning animal flesh is nauseating.
He had every right to act that way!
HE LOOKS PRETTY BIG FOR A VEGAN! PROBABLY DOWNS FOOTLONGS BY THE HANDFUL WHEN NO ONES LOOKING,BUT HE EATS HIS RAW!!
I LOVE MOZZA!!!
I've been a vegetarian for most of my life and grilling meat smells pretty foul to me…. it smells like a crematorium.
The smell of cooking meat is horrible. But puhleaz! Having a bitch fit onstage and walking away from a performance is totally unprofessional. I don't care how famous you are.
Re: MickeyBoss – VAM MORRISON, I THINK…
im not a vegetarian but if thats his belief then he has a deep rooted foundation for believing that and feels passionatly about it so its understandable. He did come back to finsh his set afterall
AAAAHAHAHA that's my moz.
Re: Kimmers – sometimes you can't. and i can understand as a vegetarian for 12 years, now. no one wonders why nonsmokers won't perform if there's too much smoke but "oh the divaa" bla.
Wow, you just had to post the most unflattering picture you could find, huh? (Well, kind of Moz's fault for wearing that hideous, belly-enhancing shirt.) Can't support Moz on the tantrum. I was a vegetarian myself, but was never that obnoxious about it.
what a fatass fucktard. seriously honestly if he was vegetarian or vegan he would be a hell of alot skinnier…just saying…hes apparently on he same diet as perez…oreos and the need for approval…lmfao
GOOD ON HIM!!! U TELL THOSE FILTHY SCUMBAGS THAT BURN FLESH!! DISCUSTING F*CKING DIRTY HILLBILLYS EAT MEAT!! NOT CLEAN RESPECTFULL PEOPLE THAT THINK BEYONDE THEIR OWN SELFISH SELFS!!!!
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE U MEAT EATERS GET HUNTED AND SKINED WHILE ALIVE JUST LIKE POOR ANIMALS!!
i spit in ur ugly faces!!!
FULL STOP
LOL he's at an outdoor event of course there's going to be meat cooking! What a shitbag!
it's not being a diva. when you've been a vegetarian, especially as long as he has been, the smell can be really nauseating. I've been a vegetarian for a year now and it bugs me. I live in a house where the rest of my family isn't vegetarian and they grill burgers and cook meat all the time, and yeah, I usually have to close my door because the smell makes me sick. He's within his right to leave the stage for a few moments to collect himself. it's not like he canceled his show or anything. It really can make us feel nauseous.
He behaves like all vegans behave, like Pathetic Whiners.
Which one of his "people" though it was a good idea for him to wear his shirt tucked in on stage?
He sure looks like he ate all the burgers! Get over yourself you fat arrogant 80"s relic
Why he so FUCKING FAT IF HE DON'T EAT NO MEAT??? WHAT HE EATIN??? CHEESE BY THE POUND????
Re: Hole v2.0 –
I noticed that too. What the hell. How much sallads do you need to eat to get fat? He must be obese compared to other vegans.
hahahaha that's awesome.
I'm so sick of his crap
Most vegans I know are ummmm thin or fit. May be its different down in LA.
Re: SkippM – No I think he did not return to the stage and did not finish his set. I can understand closing your door because the smell bothers you. But saying you hope its human flesh is not a normal thing to say. Don't give this guy too much credit. He may be a vegan but he seems hateful.
Wasn't Paul McCartney performing at the same show~isn't he a vegan~no stories of him stomping off like a big girl! Moz is just a tantrum queen~Any excuse! I'm sorry but I lost any respect for him after the big hissy fit he pulled on the Bowie tour. And then the gaul to got on TV and slag Bowie off with rude comments about Bowie not being interesting since 1973. What a liar! He went on to do a cover of one of his songs! The big slag! He just does things for effect not for any REAL meaning!
He looks so ugly and mean, i don't think the vegetarian thing is working for him, he is so obviously full of hate and negativity.
Re: mattvoyager – LOL! That's the top comment! Exactly what I was thinking! I can't stand him!
Re: hotcandie6 – then why did Perez say he did?
this is Morrissey we're talking about, he makes stupid comments like this all the time. He's passionate about it, even if it does come off looking like an ass. He can be just as bad as PETA. The smell obviously bothered him quite a bit, and even if he didn't handle it as well as most people would have, this is Morrissey. he's known for this kind of crap.
Vegetarian, huh?
Looks like good ole Morrissey has scarfed down a few hot dogs himself. I don't think I've seen a real vegetarian with a hefty gut like that.
Hmmm, OK…I must have blacked out or something during his set because I was about 5 rows away from the stage and I don't recall him leaving the stage AT ALL except to get a new shirt after he tossed his into the crowd (well, the security guard helped, LOL). As for his being a "fatass", he removed his shirt at the end of a song about having the balls to accept and love your body the way it is. Guess all you asshats commenting about his fat proved his point for him.
Must be a beer belly
Whoa! Look at that gut! I've never seen a vegetarian with a gut like that…. Could it be gas from all those beans?
WHO IS F*&^ IS HE? IS HE YOUR BF?…..EWWWWWWWWWWW YOU PIGUSTING!!!!!
Hey, maybe that's why he's so fat~he doesn't eat animal because he's gone cannibal~Well, he did say he hoped it was HUMAN flesh burning! Hey Hannibal Moz how about that with some nice Chianti!
Who the Fu*k is he, i cant figure it out…is he even famous beyond the world of Peretzel?
Mmmm…. meat…..
Morrissey is an ass. Pompous. Stupid. And looking like his vegan state is about as fake as the rest of him. If he couldn't stand the smell of good food then he should have stayed home and worked on his weight. What an asswipe!
This picture is just wrong in so many ways
pulling a Britney much?!?!
Probably gave him a massive craving
What a whiner! lol
Ok, true story: Yesterday, my 11 year old son accompanied me and his 3 year old sister on a field trip to a cattle farm. We took a hay ride around the farm, and there were tons of cows out grazing in the field. My son looks out at all these cows and says "My mouth is watering, do see all that prime rib?" I guess Morrissey would have a beef with my kid! haha
I'll say it. I FUCKING HATE MORRISSEY.
Alright I'll say it….I FUCKING HATE MORRISSEY. You old fat ass asexual sad droopy music writing delusional relic.
Re: duelastar – ha ha ha yeah i bet. and i am sur after he got out of that place he went to a buffet steak and barbeque house.
Be kind. He is obviously pregnant.
Actually, this picture taken is at a funky angle making him look like having an asciitic belly. If you go to youtube and type in a search for "morrissey and coachella" you'll see that he is actually quite thin for a 49 (50?) year old. And to those who say "who the f* is that?", you are showing your ignorance.
F*CKING AWESOME! I love him even more now!!!
the fatest vegetarian ever!
face it mozza you suck without johnny marr
Hiv belly.
Does he complain about the smell of ass when he's having sex with dudes?
He was hardly being a diva Perazhole…he was sticking up for the animals who are killed for our digestive wants, not needs….you know the type….how would we like it if more animals ate us? Oh, and not to mention we are ALL technically animals ourselves…I totally get this dude, you are just stunned…
Fuck him….Go back to England and quit bothering us here in America….he constantly whines about how we are asshole so fuck him
Funky angle or not, he's still a dumpy angry little dwarf how ever way you try to swing him! He's a whining Cow!!! Maybe that's why he was So upset! It was his friends he smelt on the grill! He's so full of his own hot air!
I fucking hate vegetarians who are militant. He needs to STFU and lay off the pasta while he's at it.
yes a lot of vegetarians hate the smell of meat
Judging by that gut hanging over his waistband, triple fudge chocolate ripple ice cream must be a vegetable.
WHat a moron! Too bad I wasn't there, I would have thrown so much on the grill that it would have smoked him out! Vegans and Veggies are retards! Real humans eat meat, yummy, juicy meat!
Hes Morrissey! He does what he wants.
Besides, I saw him twice last week and he was AMAZING.
to some veggies, the smell of cooking meat does make them ill. nice to see compassion here for the guy, he did return and do his set. God, hasn't anyone here gotten nausious from the smell of califlower or broccoli, or liver. GUESS FOOD HAS NEVER MADE YOU ILL MARIO, LEAVE HIM ALONE.
I was at the show and I've seen Moz live a zillion times. The only thing I was surprised about is that he came back after he walked off. Total Diva!!!!
That old queen has some good music, but he's so full of beer and angst still it's going to kill him. So if he's going to go I recommend Porterhouse…Excellent cut of meat.
Morrissey is a god and can throw tantrums and cry if he wants to.
I love you morrissey!
Morrissey for life!
He was drunk! Morissey, being a drama queen? How utterly out of character for him. Hell, it's a festival. Maybe he was in a festive mood too and didn't want to go on sober as a judge, would any of us? Let him do what he wants. He'd weigh 350 lbs if he ever ate meat again anyway, so good for him. I'd like to weigh less but I just love steak too much.
Shut the Fuck up and quit your bitchen you old, over rated, piece of crap. People paid good money to see your fucking past due over rated ass. Your lucky your even still on stage ….. you sould be working at Walmart as a greeter you old fuck!
Unacceptable behaviour from anyone except Morrissey, but since it IS Morrissey that's ok
though he's never going to top his Smiths days :'(
Proud veggie 4 years now. It smelled pretty meat tastic out there but whatever what was worse was the smell of vomit from the girl in front of me at the concert. I love Moz he is the best and he can have his opinion if he wants HE IS ON STAGE! I love him. Viva Moz. And to all you burger eaters keep eating we need to decrease the population some way…

Smiths or no Smiths Morrissey is was and will always be the tits.
Get. Over. It.
Meat is MURDER
I saw Morrissey in Philadelphia a few weeks back. Great show. I suspect he did not "leave" the stage in a fit. He leaves the stage several times during he course of a show for a shirt change. Candidly, I wish I had the discipline to be a vegetarian. We are not natural carnivores. Did you ever see one of our distant relatives, the apes, ever sit around barbecuing? No, they eat grains, fruits and vegetables. And they are the better for it. Moz is a tremendous talent and who gives a shit if he is asexual, bisexual, homosexual or celibate. There are a lot of fucking morons on this site.
Now I feel like eating a steak, gonna grill some cow in honor of Morrisey!!
HIS FIRST REACTION TO THE SMELL OF BURNING FLESH IS TO HOPE THAT ITS HUMAN?
DEAR GOD, WHAT IN THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN????
He needs to listen to Sparks song, "lighten up Morrissey" What a twat.. he would have been with all those Nazis in the death camps in Germany burning all those people whilst eating his granary bread and lettuce sandwich (with full fat Vegan butter - if that's possible). LOL
Morrissey is the Mozfather, The best!!!! It's ok if he does those kind of things, thats him! and whom ever has not heard of Morrissey is an idiot. If you don't know him or his music then don't comment!!
I've been a Smiths/Morrissey fan for 15 years and even *I* thought that was funny.
I love Morrissey! He should be president of the world!!!
Re: spiker59 – Lol… yes the apes are still omnivores, perhaps that's why they live in zoo's and swing around looking bored. If they had gone down the meat route, perhaps they would have developed and invented houses with central heating, dishwashers, cars, planes and the computer with internet availability. tee hee. Anyway, if we were meant to be omnivores, why do we have maxillary central incisors? Oh, to use for shearing or cutting food during mastication…. not really necessary for eating a lettuce leaf!!! Anyway an omnivore is not specifically adapted to eat and digest either meat or plant material exclusively. Apes and Humans both being omnivores. LLLLLOOOOLLL
why not!!!
he is a vegetarian and loves animals.
he has a heart !!!!!!!!!!!
it's happened before and
maybe wont happen again as he probably will draw the line now at appearing at any more of these types of barbequeing outdoor events .
fuck this moron in the ass
Watching Morrissey perform makes me wanna open a vein!
that was too much… but I love Moz
From the looks of that flab, he's certainly scarfed down enough of them.
He needs a belt!
Hey cut out the insults can't you see be the looks of his belly in the picture he is about to give birth? Lay off the pregnant people?
Re: spiker59 – No, he left in a fit….Right in the middle of the song. He didn't come back until it was over, and he did make the comment about it making him sick. I'm not a vegetarian but I don't eat red meat. And the smell was overwhelming. Our clothes smelled of BBQ after we left.
It's true Morrissey form though. I saw him here in San Diego about 10 years ago. It was an outdoor show and he complained that it was cold…Uh, it was San Diego, he's from England and he's complaining that it's cold?. He played for about 45 minutes….and that was it. It pissed a lot of people off, but that's just the way he is.
The only burning flesh he likes is a hot fuck.
Remember when he was a hot fuck.
Clearly this singer/shclongwriter is
U ncharacteristically narcissistic in his
N everending attempts
T o create controversy.
