Fiona Apple tells crowd to “shut the f**k up” at Tokyo fashion party gig

Dave Chappelle isn’t the only person finding it difficult to silence unruly audiences lately. No, Fiona Apple experienced infuriatingly noisy attendees last night at a show she played in Tokyo.

The gig was a fashion party thrown by Louis Vutton, held at Tokyo Station Hotel. A chatty crowd soon angered the singer, who exclaimed “Predictable! Predictable fashion” before telling the audience members to “shut the f**k up”, proceeding to exit the stage.

Women’s Wear Daily bring the full report:

“Apple instructed the audience to ‘shut the f–k up’ and uttered other expletives, both audibly and under her breath, calling the event’s attendees ‘rude.’ She continued with her set before shouting, ‘Predictable! Predictable fashion, what the f–k?’ as she stormed off the stage. The show was punctuated with other bizarre moments, such as when she hit her head with her microphone, did a back bend over her piano bench and stared intensely at her guitarist as if in a love-struck trance.”

Apple released her first album in seven years in 2012 in the form of her critically-acclaimed The Idler Wheel… LP.
