Metallica singer James Hetfield was investigated by UK airport officials who believed he was a terrorist this week, it has been claimed. The star was barred entry to Luton airport on Thursday and questioned by staff who were concerned about his appearance. Fears that Hetfield might be involved in terrorism were apparently founded on his "Taliban-like beard", according to The Times.

Found this story on another board, and found a picture of Het's questionable beardage.....and promptly Photoshopped what the UK airport officials apparently saw:

And yes, that is my Chopwork.

I think Jewish Rabbi before terrorist. Just me?

As opposed to any other sort of rabbi?

Given Het's history of "creative" facial hair, I really don't think either of those things, but given his current choice and the unfortunate circumstances, I couldn't resist bending reality a little bit.

Considering the last three albums, I'm prepared to believe he's a terrorist.

Don't go making fun of my adjectives.

St. Anger's the only Metallica album they killed. I, for one, am a big fan of Load and Reload, Garage Inc, and S&M.

That's because Bob Rock is a terrorist.

In a related story, they stopped Zakk Wylde at the zoo, thinking he was Grizzly Addams and was going to eat the small mammals.
