Green Day star Billie Joe Armstrong proclaimed '**** America' and claimed he was 'renouncing his citizenship' in wake of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn federal abortion protections.
Armstrong, 50, made the declaration during a Friday night concert in London, telling the audience: 'There's too much ******* stupid in the world.'
He also told the crowd he was going to move to the UK, a statement that was met with roaring applause.
Armstrong's remarks came as protests erupted across the U.S. after the conservative-majority high court voted to overturn the landmark 1973 case Roe v. Wade, which held that abortion fell under the constitutional right to privacy.
The American Idiot hitmaker has repeatedly used his musical platform to protest politicians and alleged injustices.
At a show earlier this month, he performed in front of a backdrop that read '**** Ted Cruz' in an effort to take aim at the GOP senator from Texas. He previously called out former President Donald Trump for 'holding half the country hostage' and devoted an entire album to criticizing former President George W. Bush and the Iraq War.
Armstrong, who has backed President Joe Biden, also reportedly filed paperwork last year to run as a Republican in the 2024 presidential election.

I do like some of their earlier music like Holiday a great deal because I'm a sucker for pop-punk and it's actually good enough to overcome some of the putrid lyrics.
This doofus is a self-proclaimed anarchist. I would think he’d be happy that the federal gov. is returning this issue to the states, where it belongs.
Not for the first time Billy Joe Armstrong shows that he is the weakest of weak, fair-weather anarchists.
Yep, GTFO and good riddance. Bet this POS won’t leave and if it does it will want to come back. Answer on re-entry NO!
Good they deserve him. This country went down the tubes because of the “british invasion”. Maybe all of our self proclaimed elite entertainers will return the favor and go there now.
Never heard of him.
Oh. He. Is. Not.
They always promise to leave but they never do.
“Don’t let the door hitcha where the Good Lord Splitcha!!!” One of my absolute favorite southern phrases I learned after relocating my family from southern California to Florida. One of the very best decisions I ever made. Voting for President Trump comes in second. Marrying my wife of 40 years tops the list.
Another flushable turd. Drooling half wit doesn’t know European laws are even tougher on abortion.
He needs to go on “the view” and get commitments from all the hosts and anyone watching that garbage ...the viewership is small ... but its a great start.....I hope its trending on #Twitter..... /s
Kind of presumptuous that the UK would want a self-proclaimed "American Idiot" relocating there. They're more likely to send him to Rwanda with the other illegal aliens.
Who cares?
Unless he plans to move to China, North Korea or on of the mohammedan countries.
So.. Bye!
I just wish these idiots would actually leave dor once.
can I get another amen?
“’**** America’: Green Day Star Billie Joe Armstrong says he’s renouncing his U.S. citizenship during London concert in wake of SCOTUS overruling Roe”
He could just move to California, for abortion there is still perfectly legal right up to birth - something he won’t come close to finding in Europe.
Try Red China. Hurry and GTFO.
Billy Joke still doesn’t get it:
HE. Is. The. American. Idiot.
Who? Is it male or female? Whatever it is, it's more than welcome to bugger off. It would probably be more at home in North Korea.
Yep. They say they will leave, but never do.
