Shameless Bob Vylan has denied celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death in a vile onstage rant in a new video – before attacking the dead father-of-two again.  

The English group, who rose to attention this summer after they called for ‘Death to the IDF’ during their performance at Glastonbury on live TV, made their original incendiary remarks at a gig in the Netherlands.

The frontman Bobby Vylan, real name Pascal Robinson-Foster, told the crowd: ‘I want to dedicate this next one to an absolute piece of s*** of a human being.’

He then gleefully announced, making a gun sign: ‘The pronouns was/were. Because if you chat s***, you will get banged. Rest in peace Charlie Kirk, you piece of s***.’

It came just days after Mr Kirk, chief executive and co-founder of the conservative youth organisation Turning Point USA, was brutally shot dead at a Utah college event.

But now, in a post to X yesterday evening, Mr Robinson-Foster has vehemently denied celebrating the American activist’s death – despite video suggesting the contrary – and repeated the slur he originally called him. 

In the video captioned ‘calm down’, he said: ‘Yo, real quick. At no point during yesterday’s show was Charlie Kirk’s death celebrated. 

‘At no point, whatsoever, did we celebrate Charlie Kirk’s death. I did call him a piece of s***, that much is true, but at no point was his death celebrated. 

‘If it was, go find me a quote, go find me something that proves we were celebrating his death. You’re not going to find it because it didn’t happen. 

‘What did happen is one reporter that bought their ticket online came with the sole purpose of finding something to report and after, I called him a piece of s*** and we played a song. 

‘They have written that up as a celebration. Not a celebration, isn’t a celebration, wasn’t a celebration. Calm down.’

Mr Kirk, known for his fierce MAGA views and debates with college kids across the country, collapsed immediately after being hit by gunfire last Wednesday. 

It has been mostly condemned across the political spectrum, though some left-wingers have celebrated the murder – with some comparing him to Adolf Hitler and suggesting he ‘deserved’ his fate.

Bob Vylan has now waded into the controversy to throw their support behind those celebrating the death of the Christian right-winger, who leaves behind a wife and two young children.

They made their original remarks at a sold-out show in Amsterdam’s Paradiso venue, which featured a Palestinian flag draped prominently on the stage.

Security measures for the show were significantly increased, with a visible police presence, metal barriers, and extensive checks of bags and jackets at the entrance, according to pro-Israel website Jfeed.

As soon as Bobby Vylan stepped on stage, he defiantly asked the crowd ‘if there were any snipers in the room’.

Following the Glastonbury set, venues and festivals have come under increasing pressure not to book Bob Vylan for events due to their onstage antics.

Paradiso, which has a main hall capacity of 1,500, acknowledged the band’s controversial reputation, stating: ‘Activism is inseparably linked to Bob Vylan.’ 

The two musicians who preciously guard their true identities, insist they be referred to as Bobby Vylan, the rapper and singer, and Bobbie Vylan, the drummer – with their names a play on US singer-songwriter and Nobel laureate Bob Dylan.

The Ipswich-raised grime-punk pair were previously rejected by record labels as ‘too extreme’ to sign and have previously been filmed threatening their own fans.

Their notoriety reached fresh heights this summer as Israel condemned the BBC and Glastonbury for their performance in which there were calls for the death of Israeli soldiers during a live broadcast from the festival.

Police launched a probe into the comments and Sir Keir Starmer condemned them for what he called ‘appalling hate speech’.

Bob Vylan declared ‘from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free’ – regarded by many in the Jewish community as a call for Israel’s elimination.

But the singer and guitarist Bobby Vylan seemed to revel in the fury caused by his comments immediately after the event. 

Sharing a photo of himself eating an ice cream, he wrote on his Instagram story: ‘While Zionists are crying on socials, I’ve just had a late night (vegan) ice cream.’

Bob Vylan’s entire performance was live-streamed on BBC iPlayer but it has since been taken down.

Nevertheless, the corporation was lambasted for failing to cut the broadcast immediately after the ‘anti-Israel’ chanting.

Its live-stream continued for another 40 minutes until the end of Bob Vylan’s performance.

Meanwhile, the killing of US President Donald Trump’s ally Mr Kirk is the latest example of political violence in the States spanning a range of political ideologies and affecting both major political parties. 

But some left-leaning social media users made light of it, with one writing: ‘I’m not saying Charlie Kirk deserved to be shot, but I think enablers to paedophiles should be shot, too.’

Some TikTokers also reacted casually to Mr Kirk’s death, with one mock-crying while a dramatic song played, with the caption: ‘Charlie Kirk got s**t? Awwww.’ 

Another liberal posted: ‘Hitler giving Charlie Kirk a tour in hell’, adding a GIF from a TV show.

Another called Mr Kirk ‘a f***ing Nazi’: ‘And you know what kind of Nazi is the best Nazi? A dead one. Thank God that s***stain of a person is no longer in this world.’

Others mocked Mr Kirk’s steadfast commitment to open debate and exchange of ideas: ‘Why didn’t Charlie Kirk just debate the bullet? He would have easily deflected.’

Many unearthed clips of Mr Kirk defending incidents of gun violence as ‘unfortunate’ consequences of maintaining the Second Amendment of the US Constitution.

One wrote: ‘I don’t know I think getting killed by your favourite thing in the world is sweet. It [sic] a nice gesture.’

Another said: ‘If he doesn’t make it at least he died with the love of his life, school shootings.’

‘Hollow Point USA,’ said another, parodying the organisation Mr Kirk devoted his life to.

On BlueSky, where many liberals have fled to from X to evade Elon Musk, one wrote: ‘And now we sit back and watch Republicans ignore the school shooting today while loudly mourning Charlie Kirk.’

Another said: ‘This wouldn’t have happened if Charlie Kirk had been armed.’

Similarly, as news of the shooting broke, news outlet MSNBC sparked outrage for its on-air comments, describing Kirk as ‘divisive’ and ‘polarising’.

Political analyst Matthew Dowd went on to suggest the gunshot could have been fired by one of Kirk’s supporters.

‘[W]e don’t know any of the full details of this yet,’ Mr Dowd said.

‘We don’t know if this is a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration or… so we have no idea about this.’

In another controversial moment, some Democrat Congress members rejected the opportunity to say a prayer for Mr Kirk.

Speaker Mike Johnson held a moment of silence for Mr Kirk on the chamber floor as questions swirled about whether the father of two was alive.

Following the sombre moment of silence, Representative Lauren Boebert called out to Johnson to hold a moment of prayer for the late media company founder.

Some Democrats, clearly against the request for prayer, began cheering in unison: ‘No!’

The conservative commentator, 31, was hit by a single bullet while speaking to a crowd at the public university in Orem on Wednesday afternoon.

Kirk was answering a question about mass shootings mere seconds before he was struck. He was rushed to hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

Mr Kirk leaves behind his wife Erika Kirk (nee Frantzve), with whom he had a three-year-old daughter and a son, aged 16 months. 

The couple celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary in May.
