“My message to them other than ‘thanks a f**king lot’ is go vegan”

Along with sharing a snippet of him singing his 1983 hit “Cuts Like a Knife” on Instagram, the 60- year old singer lashed out at wet market vendors for the ongoing pandemic in an explosive expletive loaded post.

Bemoaning the cancellation of his scheduled concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in London, he wrote: “Tonight was supposed to be the beginning of a tenancy of gigs at the @royalalberthall.

“But thanks to some f**king bat eating, wet market animal selling, virus making greedy b**tards, the whole world is now on hold, not to mention the thousands that have suffered or died from this virus.”

CUTS LIKE A KNIFE. A song by me. Tonight was supposed to be the beginning of a tenancy of gigs at the @royalalberthall, but thanks to some fucking bat eating, wet market animal selling, virus making greedy bastards, the whole world is now on hold, not to mention the thousands that have suffered or died from this virus. My message to them other than “thanks a fucking lot” is go vegan. To all the people missing out on our shows, I wish I could be there more than you know. It’s been great hanging out in isolation with my children and family, but I miss my other family, my band, my crew and my fans. Take care of yourselves and hope we can get the show on the road again soon. I’ll be performing a snippet from each album we were supposed to perform for the next few days.

The novel coronavirus, which erupted last December has been widely linked to Huanan’s Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan, China. The virus has spread globally since then killing more than 287,463 people at the time of writing.

‘Go f**king vegan’

Not done with his rant, Adams continued that people should now switch to veganism to prevent such situations in the future.

 “My message to them other than ‘thanks a f**king lot’ is go vegan,” he wrote.

This isn’t the first time Adams has condemned animal eating and promoted veganism in his posts.

Last month, he shared an illustration on his Instapage, which read: ‘Here we see one of the deadliest plagues the world has ever seen. The other one is the coronavirus’.

Captioning the illustration, he wrote: “Let’s not forget this virus comes from an open wet market where animals and fish of all descriptions are sold together either dead or alive.

“This has been going on for decades and as a result, so have these viruses.”

Let’s not forget this virus comes from an open wet market where animals and fish of all descriptions are sold together either dead or alive. This has been going on for decades and as a result, so have these viruses. #closewetmarkets. Here’s another brilliant one from @steve_cutts_official #covid_19 #govegan

‘Get the show on the road again’

With all public gatherings cancelled amid lockdown rules, Adams added that he would keep posting a snippet from each album he would have performed in the gigs so as to not disappoint his fans

“To all the people missing out on our shows, I wish I could be there more than you know,” he wrote at the end of his latest post.

“It’s been great hanging out in isolation with my children and family, but I miss my other family, my band, my crew and my fans.

“Take care of yourselves and hope we can get the show on the road again soon. I’ll be performing a snippet from each album we were supposed to perform for the next few days. X❤️”
