On Rude Guy's Head

travismccoy.jpgGym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy was performing "Peace Sign" on stage with his group during the St. Louis Warped Tour stop when a black audience member called him a "fucking ignorant nigger." That's when things went downhill.

McCoy calmly asked the man, “What did you just call me?” As security was removing him from the crowd, the frontman reached down and broke his microphone over the man’s head. McCoy immediately apologized for his reaction and said it wasn’t representative of him as a person. “I’m sorry. But when someone calls you something that ignorant and that offensive, you have to bash their head in with a microphone,” said McCoy.

McCoy was arrested on stage at the end of the group's set on one charge of third-degree assault. The dude who got a microphone busted over his head remains anonymous. [RS]

Why Does The Black Man Always Have To Put On The Dress?

• These are the kinds of things we do at Jossip after hours. Thankfully for me (and too bad for Cord from Mollygood), seeing a woman dressed up as a man is far less exciting. [QT]

• No matter how famous you get, somebody will always mistake you for a drug dealer. [SP]

• Trina, a role model for all the kids out there who aspire to be strippers-turned-hyper sexual rappers. [C&D]

• Barnes & Noble bestseller, maybe, but you won't see If I Did It with an Oprah's Book Club seal. [SP]

• Mindy McCready, country music's Foxy Brown. [PH]
