Jemina Pearl Makes Dude Bleed at Detroit Show

Reports surfaced last week that Jemina Pearl, current solo act and former Be Your Own Pet frontwoman, beat the crap out of some guy at a show in Detroit after he repeatedly heckled her from the crowd. Turns out the story was totally true: this weekend, Pearl took to her blog to confirm the whole thing, saying:

and yes, i did beat up a dude. he was being a dick and heckling us the whole time. it was pissing off john and max especially. i poured a bottle of water on him, but he wouldn't quit. i told all the boys to just ignore him, and we were having a lot of fun on stage. unfortunately, dude fucked up during the last song by flicking lit cigarettes at me. not cool. i kicked his ass, there was blood, and everyone at the show cheered because he sucked. even his roommate was putting him down after the show. dude was asking for it the whole show, and he seemed pretty pleased when it was over. i guess he got what he wanted?

If dude did want to get beat up, that's pretty kinky/unnecessary. But yeah, don't heckle Jemina Pearl, as she won't hesitate to beat on you and get you kicked out of the venue. [via Stereogum]

Stumble It!

A resurgence of the early '80s hardcore scene, perhaps?

It was staged. His cousin works for 2:30 Publicity, Jemina Pearl’s publicity company, and he got a spot on the guestlist and paid to yell things and take a beating, though he didn’t think she would actually make him bleed. He probably would have asked for more than the $80 and free drinks he got. That’s why he told me to pick up his glasses if they fell off, and why throughout the show he was dancing to her songs in the very front.
