Josh Homme, frontman of rock band Queens of the Stoneage, has issued a formal apology after a video surfaced of him violently kicking toward a photographer’s face.
The victim, Chelsea Lauren shared a detailed account of the seemingly intentional kick, which sent her to the ER with minor injuries. She also shared disturbing video footage from the incident.
In the two-part apology below, Homme appeared to be much more sincere than in his written statement issued prior. Homme first said he was “in a state of being lost in performance,” but later he seemed to hold himself accountable.
“I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life,” he admitted.
“‘I’m gonna have to figure out some stuff. Rock ’n’ roll is a wonderful thing, it’s supposed to save and help people, not mess them up,” Homme said.
