Laura Jane Grace has called Jay Weinberg a “little b*tch boy” after he was sacked from Slipknot.
Weinberg opened up about being kicked out of the iconic heavy metal band on November 11, saying he was left “heartbroken and blindsided” by the decision. In a now-deleted post on X/Twitter (per Consequence of Sound) Grace said: “Oh does it suck to find out via Twitter little b*tch boy,” and added, “If true, poetic justice.”
Grace later tweeted earlier today (November 13), seemingly in reference to her previous tweet: “Reminder to self: focus on promoting new album single and upcoming tour dates, try not to be a spiteful c*nt.”
This is not the first time the singer-songwriter has hit out at Weinberg. The two were former bandmates in Against Me! for two years from 2010 through 2012. When he joined Slipknot as their drummer in 2014, Grace took to X/Twitter and tweeted: “Dear Slipknot, good luck with that. #sh*tbag.”
Around that time, Grace wrote a series of tweets that read: “We once had a drummer who sprained his ankle and wanted our tour manager to call 911 and have an ambulance come for him #entitlement.”
She continued: “When our tour manager said no the drummers Daddy called him and scolded him saying the drummer was a ‘star’ and needed to be treated as such. We once had a drummer who threatened to sue us after he quit via twitter #entitlement. We once had a drummer who told me to move aside on stage cause the audience couldn’t see enough of him #entitlement. I’m just kidding, none of that ever happened.”
Slipknot announced that they had parted ways with Weinberg last week (November 5).
