youngreendayvet Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 So if you're like me, you are fascinated with which members of the public eye like/dislike each other. The members of GD aren't without controversy, so this is a thread to talk about which people have either dissed or have been dissed by Billie, Mike or Tre. Due to the negative nature of this thread it is important to note that this thread is NOT meant for debate of which artists are better or morally sound, but to discuss the origins of these "beefs." Also, these are feuds that the band Green Day has, not members of the GDC have with each other. What I'm trying to say is, this thread isn't made to start arguments, it's to discuss which public figures like or dislike GD or vice versa. Don't troll.Apologies if a similiar thread already exists.I'll start with an example:Today I was listening to episode 531 of the "Classic Loveline" podcast, which is an episode of Loveline that was taped in 1997 in which Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew Pinsky interview Goldfinger. In iit one of the Goldfinger guys says, "Green Day dissed us." Does anybody know what was said about Goldfinger, which member said it, or why?

Guest Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 It's a well known fact that Tom Cruise hates Green Day after the infamous "Who the fuck is Tre Cool?" incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I'm unfamiliar (as I blush and put my tail between my legs as a GD fan) The story of "Who the fuck is Tré Cool?" is actually quite interesting. One night, after a show in LA, the three of them were leaving a bar, very very drunk, when they bumped into Tom Cruise. Being very short, even shorter than anyone in Green Day, Tom was very quick to anger, and started an almighty kerfuffle. Not eager to take a pounding from the Hollywood A-lister's bodyguards, Billie Joe quickly shouted "don't start any shit you guys, Tré Cool will fuck you up!". The bodyguards were immensely confused by this, and paused, allowing our three heroes to scarper. Enraged, Tom Cruise could be heard screaming "WHO THE FUCK IS TRÉ COOL?" while admonishing his bodyguards for letting the trio escape. Tré of course found this hilarious, and had the t-shirt that Hermione mentioned made to commemorate that night. So there you have it. Not a word of a lie.

If Billie ever gets on a crazy rant about Scientology, we know how (extra) furious Cruise would be!I remember this from a while back:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EuaLy6_N-EWow, well that one was defused pretty quickly.

youngreendayvet Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 I'm impressed with how well PSY took that. Lots of people could learn from that.Like I said in the intro we shouldn't talk about who is right or wrong in these incidents just to avoid arguments (I've been in arguments on this site. It gets hurtful fast and unnecessarily.) I just think it's funny to here him say "From Green Days?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat1308 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 He has a feud with Green Day?I was kind of thinking of the IHeart rant. But yeah, I don't know if that counts as a proper feud.But to be serious. Speaking of "which people have either dissed or have been dissed by Billie, Mike or Tre," Tim Yohannan should get some mention here IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoodleBob Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 He has a feud with Green Day?I'm pretty sure a few years ago Bieber said something about Green Day being old and then Billie Joe tweeted "well at least I'm old enough to fuck" in response. But then he deleted the tweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently that is British slang for "shit." If any of the British members on here would like to correct me, go ahead. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/features/john-lydon-and-his-rotten-past-20150429?page=7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then he deleted the tweet. Oh God I hope somebody took the screenshot! Nope, Bieber never actually said anything, someone just made it up and tweeted it to Billie. Still a highly amusing response from Billie though Also, don't listen to Ceadog OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
