#SHOWBIZ: 'Fat People With Guns': Phil Collins teases scathing new song about America
LONDON: Phil Collins may soon start work on a hard-hitting song about US firearm culture and obesity, while taking a few shots at President Donald Trump along the way.
London-based Phil Collins, the eight-time Grammy Award winner, may soon pen a scathing song about American firearm culture and obesity, as well as take shots at President Donald Trump, according to an interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan. Collins, who hasn't played the drums for 15 years and isn't writing music currently, mentioned that he has a song titled "Fat People With Guns" waiting to be written about America.
The singer, who will be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist next month, stated that he penned the line about Americans with weapons to avoid forgetting it and might develop the idea if someone else doesn't use it first. Collins, who has faced health issues preventing him from performing live since 2022, expressed no qualms about criticizing Trump or the state of American politics.
He expressed surprise at the thought of Trump trying to stay in office after his second term, even though it would be unconstitutional, stating that he sees right from wrong.
