Jarvis Cocker Interrupts Michael Jackson's Performance
Brit Awards
When: 1996 Brit Awards
For reasons only Clint Eastwood following last week's RNC may understand, Pulp's Jarvis Cocker invaded Michael Jackson's onstage performance during the 1996 Brit Awards as a form of protest. Claiming he was speaking out against MJ's depiction as a "Christ-like figure," he was later released after being arrested, and claimed it was relatively innocent since he didn't physically touch anyone. (Only our hearts, Jarvis. Only our hearts.)
