Big Day: Sheena Easton gets pelted on return to Glasgow

God knows what that accent's meant to be, but it's not Bellshill. And the crowd at Glasgow don't mind letting her know it.

@Tam1297 where you say, "but I do have a problem with 'crappy old Scotland'.

I'm a deep proud Scottish Nationalist. I was their when S. Easton got (rightfully so) boed off stage, under a hail off bottles & cups filled with pee. This is a 100% sanitised version , edited by her PR Peeps, both audio & video. I'm totality indifferent to her.

She swore she would never return to Scotland after this, "as I'm loved in LA & dont need Scotland now". Good riddance I say. What an ego, for zero talent

a shocking performance dreadful;..idve booed too

I was there and remember this bit well. Sheena Easton was an Ill-advised inclusion at this stage in the day, but she was big in America at the time so she probably wouldn't have accepted another slot. The music just wasn't going with the groove of everyone else, but her reaction just made the crowd's reaction worse. Pity, as the whole day was great.

When was this concert? I know it was in Scotland, but what year? She looks damn fine if it was recent.

was she getting booed? i didnt hear it.

Yes, her accent morphed into a strange MidAtlantic twist. Thats what happenes when you live in a foreign country for a prolonged period of time. Geesh, I wonder if Cary Grant ever got booed when he returned to England...

I love Sheena. America is happy to welcome her.

She was booed and things thrown because earlier in the day she had slagged off Scotland and it was shown accidently on the big screens. I was there, great day out. Wet Wet Wet @ George Sq was superb :-)

[bryanspink]

I seem to remember everyone was booing because she had left Scotland and moved to the US of A.

Seem to be a few small minded resentful Scots here. Those who pelted her and the ones with negative comments. Does she deserve that? She took off to America in the 80's as in the UK nobody bought her music! There was a lot of crappy stuff about here at the time but she recorded a lot of good pop songs. Mind you I don't think much of this. Good luck to her: she's living somewhere where her talent is appreciated. Doesn't need Scotland -or England. Some actors make it abroad, why not singers?
