Top 10 Times Rock Stars Sabotaged Their Careers, Concerts, and Hit Songs

from Professor of Rock

You gotta see this! Back by popular demand, it’s time for another sabotage countdown. In the past, we’ve told stories of bands that undercut rivals on stage, acts that have tried to tank their most popular song, and even bands who have accidentally sabotaged their careers. We’ve got all that and more this time around. Including the story of singer Shirley Manson who cussed a fan out in the middle of a concert over bouncing a beachball… at the next show, 100s of fans came to the jilted fan’s rescue. Find out what happened. Plus, the famous songwriter who wrote a hit song for Kelly Clarkson… problem is he wrote the exact same song with different lyrics for Beyonce too. Both came out at the same time, so this Kelly Clarkson did everything she could to sabotage her own song, but it was still a hit. And then there was Blind Melon's frontman who stripped off all his clothes onstage and took a wiz on concertgoers. Not exactly the best way to win over a crowd.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
