Morrissey dissed Kylie, meat-eaters at Wireless show

Morrissey mocked Kylie Minogue's OBE, criticised George W Bush and berated meat-eaters during his Wireless festival set, where he played tracks from Years of Refusal.

Morrissey has mocked Kylie Minogue for getting an OBE. He sarcastically told the crowd during his Wireless appearance this weekend that he was "absolutely thrilled to death" to see the pop star honoured, adding "I'm sure you'll agree, it was completely deserved". Not sure whether his problem is with her, or the honours system. It's possibly both.

He also, perhaps predictably, had something to say about George W Bush, and also had a go at meat-eaters in the crowd when he caught the scent of burgers, presumably being cooked at some dodgy van nearby. The singer, who played a couple of tracks from upcoming new album 'Years of Refusal', also ripped off his shirt and threw it into the crowd. Which can't have been altogether pleasant for them. Especially those that were already feeling a bit queasy after eating all those burgers.
