Controversy
Selfish Cunt is currently banned from the Institute of Contemporary Arts, The Rocks, and The Egg after a series of destructive acts, including the sabotage of the band Snow Patrol's equipment.
A brawl between Tomlinson, Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty, and photographer Andrew Kendall outside Buckingham Palace during an NME photoshoot was reported in the press. Adie Nunn in Drowned in Sound wrote: "...poo was then kicked around by Attention-Seeking Bloke from disco punks Selfish Cunt, before he picked it up with his bare hands and started hurling the poo at Babyshambles' Pete Doherty... The Others' singer Dominic Masters then tipped a pint of beer over Selfish thingy's head." The brawl was broken-up by police.

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
