Morrissey Bails On Kimmel Over Duck Dynasty

(Radio.com) Morrissey's dedication to vegetarianism inspires him to cancel a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday (February 26).

The "smell of burning flesh" caused the former Smiths frontman to flee the stage at Coachella in 2009, but this time it's the mere presence of Duck Dynasty cast members. The popular A&E reality show centers around a family that sells products for duck hunters, some of whom are scheduled to appear on Kimmel Tuesday.

In a statement posted to his Facebook page, Morrissey reps thanked Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the invitation and explained the change in plan. "He cannot morally be on a television program where the cast members of Duck Dynasty will also be guests. Morrissey would be honored to play the show, if Duck Dynasty were removed." more on this story
