Fox Apologizes After Robbie Williams Flips Off Camera During World Cup Opening - Sensationalist Headlines

https://cdn.24.co.za/files/Cms/General/d/7540/76df1def2b7d4461afbd5ece3fe94905.jpg The 2018 FIFA World Cup kicked off Thursday (June 14) in Moscow with a set of opening ceremony festivities, including a performance by British singer Robbie Williams. During a performance of "Rock DJ," Williams flashed his middle finger directly into the camera on live television -- which prompted the game’s broadcaster Fox to issue an apology. Williams’ performance and gesture came in the midst of a 20-minute ceremony at Luzhniki Stadium that also featured a speech from Russian President Vladimir Putin and elaborate dances. In a statement given to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox explained that while their network did not produce the show, they are deeply sorry for what took place. "The 2018 FIFA World Cup opening ceremony was a newsworthy event produced by a third party and carried live on Fox. As it was broadcast live, we did not know what would happen during Robbie Williams’ performance and we apologize." This is the first time Russia is hosting the World Cup. In the initial game against Saudi Arabia, the host country reigned supreme 5-0. Source: Billboard

People running, kicking and smacking things around on lawns - hosted this year by boo-hoo land.

Apologize all you want, my kids are on some heavy cocaine right now all because of this evil man!

For a network campaigning so hard for dictatorships, genocide and civil war, they sure are prudes.

hes just learning how to party like a russian

You can make literally anything sound retarded by simplifying it like this

Yeah, okay. Fox has no issue with the president making fucked up, incoherent and at times, threatening the security of our country, but GOD FORBID an artist flips off the camera. Fox has their heads so far up their asses they speak in flatulence.

Saw Robbie Williams live, hes such a good showman. So many milfs too

This really does feel like a story from a simpler time

They should stay away from Rugby games, even here in the US there's a whole lot of, "What the fuck was that you inbred shit eating dried up cumstain!?" as the ref's are making the call. Bloody brilliant stuff that.

My kids just fell dead after seeing renowned musician, Robbie "Rock DJ" Williams, raise his finger at the camera. I hope this man burns in H-E-Double hockeystick

Robbie Williams stopped short of apologizing for giving the middle finger during his World Cup opening ceremony performance, but said Tuesday that the gesture was not planned. “I thought to myself it would be really important at these kind of things to not cause an international incident – and do you know what, I managed it,” Williams told ITV’s “This Morning.” He went on to joke that he was giving fans a one-minute countdown to the kickoff of the first game between Russia and Saudi Arabia. Asked if he regretted the incident in the immediate aftermath, Williams said: “Yeah, of course. I can’t trust me, I cannot trust me…I don’t know what I’m going to do at any time.” He added: “The plan was sing in key, don’t fall over. That was the plan, and 99% of the plan I pulled off.” Source: Variety

Robbie Williams kind of fucking hates Russia, so I'm not surprised.
