NINE INCH NAILS Cancel 'MTV Movie Awards' Appearance Over GEORGE W. BUSH Backdrop
May 27, 2005NINE INCH NAILS have cancelled their previously announced appearance at the "2005 MTV Movie Awards", which will be taped on June 4.
"We were set to perform 'The Hand That Feeds' with an unmolested straightforward image of George W. Bush as the backdrop," NIN mainman Trent Reznor writes on the group's web site. "Apparently the image of our President is as offensive to MTV as it is to me.
"See you on tour this fall when we return to play in America."
The "2005 MTV Movie Awards", hosted by Jimmy Fallon, airs on Thursday, June 9 at 8:30 p.m. ET.
