(GoRealNewsNow.com) – What could have been an exciting event for his fans ended up in an embarrassing situation for the Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger, as the crowd booed him after praising Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during a Vancouver concert.
Watch the video further down this post.
Jagger said to the crowd, “We love your Mr. Trudeau, I mean, his family’s always been such big fans of our band.”
This sparked a loud chorus of booing, leaving Jagger visibly shocked as he stood on stage, mouth agape.
A longer video of the moment showed a massive number of concertgoers booing upon hearing Jagger’s praise for Trudeau. But The “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” singer quickly tried to shift the topic.
“By the way, congratulations on the Canadian soccer team’s reaching the semi-finals!” Jagger exclaimed, turning the jeers into cheers.
The footage went viral on social media, with X users reacting to the incident.
“Mick did some big backpedaling,” one user commented, while another said that Mick Jagger had no clue how unpopular Trudeau is.
Moreover, the criticism continued, as another user wrote that Jagger was not even from Canada and did not know how to read the room.
Others remarked that the change of topic from politics to sport was priceless, adding a crying-laughing emoji.
One user noted that Jagger was “stunned at the boos,” and quickly “pivoted to the soccer team.”
Following the comments of the political landscape, another said that it was time for the singer to stop commenting on any political subject.
Another user said, “Poor Mick has no clue,” while another simply commented, “Liberal elite.”
