Skindred frontman Benji Webbe has come under fire for seemingly mocking Babymetal as they took home the ‘Best Live Band’ award at the 2016 ‘Kerrang! Awards‘ last week. Webbe and Justin Hawkins (The Darkness) co-presented the awards, with Webbe interrupting the band during their acceptance speech. You can find footage of that below, while Webbe himself has since apologized for the incident via a series of tweets:
Sorry to anyone who thought I disrespect baby metal at the awards tonight, truly I didn't mean to fuck with them
