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.

Billie Joe Armstrong said this in England where…checks notes…abortion is legal up to 24 weeks but must be approved by 2 different doctors who both say giving birth would cause the woman more trauma than termination, and after 24 weeks only in very specific cases. So he is moving to the UK, he says.
…As opposed to Oakland, CA, where Armstrong lives, now, where you can get an abortion up to 23 weeks (viability) without having to get anyone’s permission, and if you’re a minor you don’t even have to tell your parents. After viability, it’s only available in specific cases.
Also, only up to 10 weeks in Northern Ireland and, in Scotland, there are no facilities that will abort as late as 24 weeks, so you have to travel to England.
So I guess Billie Joe wants to live where abortion rights are more restrictive?
So I guess he is an idiot..
Can we pls FastTrack his request???
And take your shitty music with you.
Don’t let the door knob hit you on the ass on your way out!
He’s so 90s.
Take your buddies with you 🤪
Good news and bye, baby killer, Billie Joe Armstrong!
If about 35 million of these scumbags left America, they would be happy and so would we.
How are their any celebrities left in the USA? I thought they were all moving to Canada.
Definitely a win win for America
Good riddance billy jean.
“Don’t let the door knob hit you on the ass on your way out!”
He may actually enjoy that.
Made my day. I was hoping someone would post this.
Hope this starts a stampede of stupid leftists for the door.
Oh, quit making sense.
It feels so good to have Billy Joe come out and prove it.
Bye
He’s the ultimate poser.
Who? I have never heard of this person…so he must be a legend in his own mind.
Hold him to it.
