Flea Sees Red

. (Contact Music) RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS bassist FLEA snapped and hurled insults at a journalist during an interview yesterday (12APR06). The rocker lost his temper when the reporter repeatedly quizzed him about a reported rift with bandmate JOHN FRUSCIANTE. Flea writes on his blog, "I was talking to this man and he kept asking me about (a past interview) where I said that there was a lot of tension between John and I on the last record. I answered the questions and tried to explain how sometimes things are hard but then they can get better. But he kept talking about the part that was hard and I thought he didn't care about the part that comes next, the liberation and rebirth that made it better than ever. ..I started getting angry and next thing I know I started yelling and seeing red and I threw my bottle against the wall and hurled insults at him and stormed out of the room.
