Metallica’s James Hetfield was detained at the airport because his beard made him look like a terrorist.
Metallica’s Live Earth performance almost faded to black before it even happened, thanks to British airport officials who held their lead singer at a terminal because of his “Taliban-like beard.”According to the British newspaper The Times, as reported by the New Zealand Herald, metal pioneer James Hetfield was held up and subjected to a line of questioning due to his facial hair following a tense week in the United Kingdom after foiled terror plots and an attack in Scotland.
Even if you had no idea who Hetfield is, does he look even a little bit like a Middle Eastern terrorist?
