U.S. Senator Ted Cruz has shot down Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor‘s recent assertion that he denied Cruz guest list at the band’s November 27th show in Irving, TX.
During a pause in that set, Reznor was seen remarking from the stage:
“Who voted for Ted Cruz? See the lights aren’t on, I can’t see. Is there any way to turn the lights on? I’d like to see. Raise your hand, you guys, nothing to be ashamed of, just checking.
He might be here tonight, he was bugging to get on the guest list, and I told him to fuck off. We put him on a few years ago, he drank all the beer, and was just a pain in the ass to be around. So, I won’t, I won’t hold it against you.”
Cruz took to his Twitter last night to shoot down the story, stating:
To all the gullible reporters who are “reporting” that I asked to be on the guest list at a Nine Inch Nails concert: uh, no, NIN is not my music taste. He was clearly joking. And for the record, I also didn’t “drink all his beer” the last time…but I would have! #FakeNews https://t.co/ZNr292SCVl
