Morrissey tells fan website to "fuck off" via t-shirt

Usually you tell someone your problem and then proceed to make the t-shirts, but ex-Smiths singer Morrissey isn’t about to start doing anything normal, hence launching a campaign against one of his own fan websites by wearing a slanderous t-shirt.
He played a show in Bradford on Monday night and for the second encore came out with a t-shirt bearing the words “FUCK MORRISSEY-SOLO.COM.” Thanks to The Guardian, a blurry photo of the singer and his band wearing matching shirts slamming the website, which is regarded as one of the premier fan sites with up to date content, was posted online.
It’s unclear at this point what triggered the English singer to do such a thing (then again, it is Morrissey), but according to one comment left on a post the fan site put up about the incident (including their own photo evidence), “He’s probably referring to the endless negativity we see written about him by ‘fans’ of these pages which is horrendous and totally unjustified.”
