Dave Grohl 'sues' The Scissor Sisters

Dave Grohl is 'suing' US pop act The Scissor Sisters for $75 million for alleged "emotional distress."

The Foo Fighters mainman explains that he was left traumatised after attending a Scissor Sisters concert where frontman Jake Shears exposed his testicles.

"Mr. Grohl says life has not been the same since the incident," explains a reporter in the video clip below. "He says that flashbacks of that night occur regularly, and leave him with bouts of anxiety, panic, chills and explosive diarrhoea."

"Every night when I go to bed, every time I blink my eyes, I still see Jake's nuts," adds Grohl. "Is $75 million going to erase that from my life? Probably not."

you'll have to be a little bit retarded - or something in that way - to not see that it's fake. To be honest.

Posted by Jakob Westergren | October 6, 2010 4:31 PM | Reply to this

Hahaha, Harpy the shark, how the fuck is Dave Grohl and the band washed up? Dave Grohl is currently one of the worlds biggest rockers...for talent and personality. I know you don't like him cause it's not Hayley Williams, but still, wtf?

It is absolutely astounding!!!....... that people think this is real.

Posted by Scotty1 | October 6, 2010 4:48 PM | Reply to this

And bless you, you can't take a joke!

Dave is taking the piss! As are the Scissor Sisters!!
If nothing else, the reporters fake moustache shoulda given that away!!!

What a lot of over serious idiots on here!
Kerrang! Dave Grohl and the Scissor Sisters are taking the piss & having a joke...
But the bigger joke is the people that can't see that!!
hahaha!

Dave.

It has been nearly twenty years since you murdered Kurt Cobain. Your career was over after that shit last album the FF put out, It's over. Just stick a shotgun in your mouth and end it all. You Jack Black impersonating cunt.

Posted by Ross | October 6, 2010 6:35 PM | Reply to this

Dave Grohl is a funny guy. don't bitch and whine at him, he's written some of the greatest rock songs of our time. and it's good to see that kerrang has a sense of humour. and it's better news than hearing about hayley williams self obsessive bull shit or even hearing pete wentz go on about what hair gel he uses, the silly twat

Posted by Oli Watkins | October 6, 2010 6:52 PM | Reply to this

Haha such a legend xD

Posted by HollowNightmares | October 6, 2010 7:20 PM | Reply to this

Was anyone else laughing when they were reading this? Why would you sue over something like this? Just go to therapy or get some hypnosis to make you forget it

Posted by Michaela | October 6, 2010 7:35 PM | Reply to this

Haha xD
This has got to be a joke right? It's bloody hilarious

Posted by JoNnY | October 6, 2010 7:36 PM | Reply to this

Posted by bamboozle | October 7, 2010 12:04 AM | Reply to this

i have a sense of humour i reguarly enjoy watching such funny acts like Kevin Bridges, Michael Mcintyre and so on...

if you think this is funny you are clearly suffering from some sort of mental illness!

its sad and personally speaking there is thousands of valid news articles this shitty excuse for a rag could cover but if they want to ruin there integrity and have idiots like you numbnuts as fans then its a disgrace =]

Posted by harpy the shark | October 7, 2010 12:18 AM | Reply to this

i cant believe people think dave grohl is actualy going to sue them. i thought from 5 seconds in that everyone would get its a joke, purely from the fake moustache.

some people on the kerrang comment boards are seriously stupid. my god.

also, michael mcintyre isnt funny. anyone can run around screaming like a girl.

Posted by fezz | October 7, 2010 12:24 AM | Reply to this

what a legend only dave could get away with a joke like that how can people actually think this is real? have they not watched the video the picture of daves lawyer is a dead give away

also @ courtney love for president (or whatever you called yourself) if anyone murdered curt cobain it would have been courtney love she owns all his rites she gained a huge amount from his death so how about you find out some facts before blaming someone for a person death you stupid child

Posted by acki | October 7, 2010 11:47 AM | Reply to this

of course its a joke, my god what is wrong with people these days. and obviously kerrang dont think its serious you twats

i just dont want jake's balls in my face.

Posted by Lorna | October 7, 2010 2:44 PM | Reply to this

hahahaha this is greatness
to everyone who is saying group about dave grohl its clearly a joke...the news is scissor sisters news and he is obviously acting ..silly people

Posted by aron | October 7, 2010 4:51 PM | Reply to this

People actually took this seriously? C'mon, it's so fucking obvious it's just a few guys having a laugh or are rockstars not allowed to have fun anymore? Making a spoof video does not equal attention seeking, please extract your head from your ass.

I can't blame dave, I don't think I'd like Jake's balls in my face either

Posted by tara | October 7, 2010 7:29 PM | Reply to this

Awesome clip. How anyone can think that this is serious baffles me. If you do think this is serious, please go back to watching Fox News and stop posting comments on this site so the rest of us can enjoy it.

Posted by Meghan | October 8, 2010 6:54 PM | Reply to this

Are people seriously THAT fucking brain-dead? Kerrang! are obviously joking, Dave is obviously joking, and so are the Scissor Sisters. As soon as I read the first fucking sentence I knew this was bound to be a joke... AND IT'S HILARIOUS. Lighten the hell up.
