(Gigwise) Metallica frontman James Hetfield was denied entry into Luton airport yesterday, when security officials pulled him over.
The rocker was prevented from leaving the airport terminal once he got off the plane because of his ‘Taliban-like beard’, The Times reports.
After a brief interrogation in which Hetfield explained he was in a world-famous rock band, officials apparently let him go.
Hetfield and Metallica are in the country for their two day sting at Wembley Stadium. They play Live Earth on Saturday and headline the national stadium on Sunday with support from Machine Head, HIM, Bullet For My Valentine and Mastodon.
UPDATE 7/11/07: According to US Weekly, this story is a hoax.
The Dark Stuff is an online music magazine and podcast that focuses primarily (though not exclusively) on independent artists that perform in Omaha, Nebraska and the Midwest.
