Guns N Roses Legend Slash Attacked With Mashed Potatoes on Soccer AM
Friday, 16 September 2011
Written by Elliott Batte
Guitar icon Slash is usually celebrated wherever he travels, having fans in all four corners of the earth – but apparently, Soccer AM’s celebrity interviewer Tubes isn’t one of them.
Slash was lined-up to open what is now the biggest guitar shop in the UK in Epsom, and was also scheduled to be interviewed by the football show’s regular Q+A man Tubes, played by Peter Dale. But, just as the interview began, Tubes suddenly decided to throw MASHED POTATO at the superstar’s face.
The incident caused a huge commotion and Tubes was consequently removed from the area, while Slash immediately stormed off, clearly not happy at receiving a load of mash to the face. Eventually, Slash was convinced to return to the store and complete an interview – though this time, without Tubes.
The motives of the potato-infused attack were unknown; was it a publicity stunt, or does Tubes really just not like Slash? Either way, you can catch the interview on tomorrow morning’s (Sat 17th) episode of Soccer AM – a show I’m sure none of us are going to miss now.
