Dave Navarro and Perry Farrell, two members of the rock band Jane’s Addiction, filed lawsuits against one another over onstage and backstage altercations between them last September.

On September 13, 2024, a Jane’s Addiction concert in Boston stopped suddenly after Perry punched Navarro in an onstage altercation. In video footage of the Boston show captured by fans, the band’s frontman had been in the middle of performing “Ocean Size” when he began grunting and yelling at the crowd, “F— you.” He came up to Navarro and shoved him.

Perry then backed up but then attempted to confront him again while Navarro, the band’s guitarist, calmly tried to create space between them with his arm.

In turn, the frontman punched Navarro’s chest, causing several crew members to separate the two of them. They took the attacker offstage while the lights on the stage were lowered.

The other band members,...

Perry Farrell has filed a lawsuit of his own against Jane’s Addiction members Dave Navarro, Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins over the 2024 onstage altercation that derailed the band’s tour, his complaint coming just hours after the three members sued him earlier Wednesday.

In the complaint, filed Wednesday in Los Angeles and obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Farrell maintains that the rest of the band were the original aggressors in the September 2024 incident that culminated with him punching Navarro on stage. He claimed in the suit that the band took part in a “years-long bullying campaign” where they harassed him onstage and attempted to “undermine him by playing their instruments at a high volume so that he could not hear himself sing without blasting his own in-ear monitors at an unsafe level.”

Farrell claimed in the lawsuit that the band’s alleged harassment “escalated on September 13, 2024 to physical violence...

Seven months after Jane’s Addiction fell apart onstage in front of a live audience, lead singer Perry Farrell and the other band members have filed competing legal complaints against each other.

Guitarist Dave Navarro, bassist Eric Avery and drummer Stephen Perkins sued Farrell — who also founded Lollapalooza — for $10 million Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, alleging the frontman’s “brutal and unprovoked” on-stage attack on Navarro last year caused the band to lose millions of dollars when they had to cancel tour dates and a planned new album.

The trio reunited with Farrell last year for the original lineup’s first tour together since 2010. Avery had long eschewed a reunion after battling drug addiction (and Farrell) and fearing life on the road might again lead to relapse. He didn’t have to worry. About two-thirds of the way through the band’s 50-city tour, Farrell ended the reunion when...

Just hours after Dave Navarro, Stephen Perkins, and Eric Avery sued singer Perry Farrell over an infamous onstage altercation and its ramifications on the band, the frontman has sued his ex-Jane’s Addiction bandmates, citing assault and battery, bullying and harassment, and breach of contract, among other allegations.

As Variety reports, Farrell’s legal action is not a countersuit, but rather a separate lawsuit filed by Farrell, his wife Etty Lau Farrell, and his touring company against Navarro, Perkins, and Avery. A summary statement from Farrell’s lawyer, as emailed to Consequence from his publicist, reads as follows:

“As a founding member and creative force behind Jane’s Addiction, Perry Farrell has always prioritized the band’s legacy and its supporters, which is why the events of September 13th, 2024 in Boston and the resulting fallout was so devastating. Without warning or consultation and using Perry as a scapegoat, Dave Navarro...

Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell has sued former bandmates Dave Navarro, Eric Avery, and Stephen Perkins, just hours after the trio filed a lawsuit against him over an onstage scuffle last year. During a show at Boston’s Leader Bank Pavilion on Sept. 13, 2024, Farrell shoved Navarro near the end of his guitar solo for “Ocean Size” before Avery and crew members had to physically separate them. The band didn’t finish the concert, and audience-shot footage flooded social media feeds within minutes.

In a 30-page complaint, obtained by Rolling Stone...

Jane’s Addiction members Dave Navarro, Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins filed a lawsuit against singer Perry Farrell Wednesday over Farrell’s infamous onstage altercation with Navarro that forced the cancellation of the band’s reunion tour.

Navarro, Avery and Perkins are seeking $10 million in damages, stating that’s how much they’d lost after the incident forced the cancellation. The band’s claims include intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract, while claims from Navarro specifically include allegations of assault and battery over the incident.

The suit, filed in Los Angeles Wednesday and reviewed by The Hollywood Reporter, comes almost exactly 10 months after Farrell had thrown a punch at Navarro during the middle of the band’s performance in Boston last September. The show abruptly ended, and the rest of their reunion tour was canceled as the group broke up.

“Plaintiffs Dave Navarro,...

Dave Navarro is suing his former Jane’s Addiction bandmate Perry Farrell for assault and battery following their on-stage altercation during a concert in September 2024. Additionally, Navarro, along with fellow Jane’s Addiction members Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins, are suing Perry for emotional distress, negligence, and breach of contract over the subsequent cancellation of the band’s tour following the incident. Navarro, Avery, and Perkins are seeking a minimum of $10 million in damages.

TMZ was the first to report news of the lawsuit.

Dave Navarro said in a new interview that there is “no chance” Jane’s Addiction will ever reunite again following a viral onstage confrontation that abruptly ended the band.

Speaking to Guitar Player, Navarro was asked what was the least favorite gig in his lengthy career. The guitarist easily pinpointed, “It would be a gig last September, on Friday the 13th, in Boston.”

On that night, in an incident that spread across social media, Jane’s Addiction’s “Core Four” reunion quickly came to an end after singer Perry Farrell...

While the future certainly didn’t look bright for Jane’s Addiction following an onstage fight between singer Perry Farrell and guitarist Dave Navarro this past September, Navarro has seemingly put the last nail in the coffin for the legendary alt-rock band in a new interview.

As previously reported, Farrell shoved and punched Navarro onstage toward the end of Jane’s Addiction’s September 13th show at Leader Bank Pavilion in Boston, ending the concert abruptly. The singer was pulled off the guitarist by Cleary and bassist Eric Avery, who then landed a couple of punches on Farrell. It was later reported that moments later, Farrell punched Navarro again backstage, this time in the face.

The band subsequently canceled the remainder of the tour, which was the first outing featuring all four classic members of the band — Farrell, Navarro, Avery, and drummer Stephen Perkins — in 14 years. Farrell apologized for the incident,...

Keanu Reeves is one of Hollywood’s most humble and honorable actors. He isn’t just any favorite action star; he’s the internet’s ultimate soft-spoken legend. From dodging bullets in The Matrix to taking down armies in John Wick, he’s the guy who can save the world and still give up his subway seat. But beyond the world of stardom, fan edits, memes, and breathtaking quotes lies a tragic story.

Reeves’ life journey through love and unimaginable loss isn’t just heartbreaking, it’s honestly haunting. His real-life romance with Jennifer Syme was pure magic until it shattered with the stillbirth of their daughter, followed by Jennifer’s tragic death just a year later.

And through it all, he never turned bitter, only quieter, kinder, and more grounded. It’s the kind of pain most people never recover from, yet Reeves carries it with humility and grace.

The first-ever Lollapalooza tour took place in the summer of 1991, and while Nine Inch Nails weren’t the headliner, there’s a consensus among the band’s peers that the industrial band stole the show on the inaugural edition of the traveling festival.

In the new book Lollapalooza: The Uncensored Story of Alternative Rock’s Wildest Festival (available here), fellow musicians assert they were blown away by Trent Reznor and company’s live performances that summer.

That year’s lineup was headlined by Lollapalooza founder Perry Farrell’s band Jane’s Addiction, and also featured Siouxsie and the Banshees, Living Colour, Ice-t & Body Count, Butthole Surfers, and Rollins Band.

Pete Davidson sat courtside at the New York Knicks basketball game at Madison Square Garden on Sunday evening (April 6) in New York City.

The 31-year-old comedian and actor was joined by his girlfriend Elsie Hewitt as they watched the Knicks defeat the Phoenix Suns 112-98.

Pete showed his support for the home team by wearing a Knicks Fear of God hoodie. Unfortunately, the hoodie is currently sold out on the NBA store.

Other celebrities attending the game, according to the Knicks Instagram, included Penn Badgley, Suni Lee, Odell Beckham Jr, New York Mets’ Francisco Lindor, who sat next to Pete, New York Jets’ Tyrod Taylor, Diana Silvers, Cory Hardrict, Bobby Flay, rapper Chuck D, Tim Robinson and former basketball star Stephon Marbury.

The weekend before, Pete and Elsie were in Scotland, where they attended Dave Navarro‘s wedding. She shared photos of them in the country on her Instagram, including posing with a beautiful horse.

Before Lollapalooza became just another giant festival, it was a culture-shaking Nineties traveling carnival that helped define the thing we used to call “alternative.” Key moments in the careers of Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails, Ice-t, Green Day, Rage Against the Machine, Courtney Love, and many more played out on its stages, as chronicled in the excellent new oral-history book Lollapalooza: The Uncensored Story of Alternative Rock’s Wildest Festival.

Love in Hollywood is a wild ride. One minute you’re starring in a rom-com, the next, you’re in a real-life age-gap romance that has the internet talking. But hey, who’s counting? While some people raise their eyebrows at big age differences, others just see it as another Hollywood trend, like tiny sunglasses or method acting gone too far.

But here’s the deal, when it comes to celebrity relationships, age gaps are basically a tradition. Some couples push the envelope with shocking numbers, while others manage to keep it relatively modest.

Today, we’re looking at a rockstar and his new bride, plus five famous Hollywood couples who also have significant, but slightly smaller, age gaps. Let’s dive into the fascinating world of love, fame, and math!

Dave Navarro and Vanessa Dubasso...

Rockstar marriages can be crazy, but Jane’s Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro took stuff to a whole new level. His five-day marriage with a certain actress and fashion designer makes Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries’ 72-day union look like a golden anniversary.

Yep, Navarro’s blink-and-you’ll-miss-it wedding was so short it barely made it past the honeymoon phase. While Hollywood’s seen its share of whirlwind romances, this one might just take the cake (or at least a bite of it before tossing it out).

“It exudes a moody, ethereal charm. Surrounded by a towering forest, a serene lake and the ruins of a castle along the shoreline, it felt like stepping into a fairytale,” Vanessa told the outlet.

Following an onstage fight that apparently broke up Jane’s Addiction, three of the four members are making new music together. Bassist Eric Avery, guitarist Dave Navarro, and drummer Stephen Perkins are recording new songs minus singer Perry Farrell.

Back in September, Jane’s Addiction made headlines when Farrell got into a physical altercation with Navarro during a show in Boston, at one point punching the guitarist onstage. As the two musicians were being separated, it appeared that Avery landed a few blows on Farrell. And a later report from a crew member revealed that Farrell punched Navarro again — this time in the face — backstage shortly thereafter.

The rest of the band’s tour was canceled, and while an official announcement was never made, Navarro suggested that the band had broken up in an Instagram post, saying, “I’m gutted that things ended this way.”

Now, Avery, Navarro, and Perkins...

Three months after a Jane’s Addiction reunion tour abruptly ended following an onstage fight, the band appears to be back in the studio together without singer Perry Farrell.

Eric Avery shared video from a recent recording session where he was adding bass to Stephen Perkins’ drumming. “Writing some more new lines to some of Stephens drumming. Look forward to getting some Mr [Dave] Navarro on them. 2025!,” Avery wrote in the caption; Perkins also shared Avery’s video on his Instagram (via Stereogum).

Dave Navarro and Billy Morrison have announced the initial lineup for their upcoming “Above Ground 4” benefit concert. The evening will see the two musicians joined by Billy Idol, Alice in Chains’ Jerry Cantrell, Guns N’ Roses Duff McKagan, and more as they perform the classic debut albums by New York Dolls and The Cars in full.

The 2025 edition of the benefit show will take place January 25th at the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood, California, with tickets available here. Proceeds will aid MusiCares via Above Ground, a “registered 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to raising funds for and awareness to the issues of mental health and suicide prevention.”

Joining the aforementioned acts on the bill are Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle), Elliot Easton (The Cars), Jerry Harrison (Talking Heads/Modern Lovers), Josh Freese (Foo Fighters), Mark McGrath (Sugar Ray), Steve Stevens (Billy Idol), and Tommy Henriksen & Glen Sobel, with more artists to be announced in the coming weeks.

Ink Master Season 16 is off to a fiery start, but there's something off yet again. This is the second season entirely without longtime host Dave Navarro, who was the flag-bearer of the intense, unpredictable energy on the show since its inception. Joel Madden, who first hosted solo in Ink Master Season 14 as Navarro was stepping back from the central hosting role, returns again this season as solo host. While Madden does bring his own vibe to the show, there's a clear void and challenge in filling Navarros larger-than-life presence. That lethal rock-star swagger and sharp-critique blend, which has been a staple since the show's early days, is sadly no longer there, and it's safe to say that without Navarro, Chris Nez, and Oliver Peck, the show feels less volatile and more grounded. This isn't necessarily a deal-breaker, but it is instantly noticeable for longtime viewers.

Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro is absent from Ink Master Season 16 on Paramount+ despite being one of the reality series' most iconic faces, leaving some questioning the reasons for his exit.

Navarro boarded Ink Master as a host and judge for the first 13 seasons before stepping back to the role of "Master of Chaos" for Season 14.

This new role saw him pass hosting duties to singer Joel Madden and instead twists and game-changing bombs with each episode as "Master of Chaos."

Donald Trump loves music. It does not love him back. But neither fact has ever been more obvious than this week, when he made his DJ debut. Even by his standards, it was a bizarre instant-classic trainwreck. At his Monday town hall event in Oaks, Pennsylvania, he quit taking questions from the crowd, and turned his campaign rally into a dance party. “Let’s not do any more questions,” Trump said. “Let’s just listen to music. Who the hell wants to hear questions?” Then he just stood there frozen in a 40-minute K-hole,...

Embattled singer Perry Farrell appears to be on shaky ground with his bandmates both past and present.

Adding to the fallout from his onstage fight with guitarist Dave Navarro and the possible disbandment of Jane’s Addiction, one of Farrell’s former bandmate in Porno for Pyros, bassist Martyn LeNoble, has posted an eviscerating takedown of the singer and his wife Etty Lau Farrell on social media.

“I can say, unequivocally, that Perry has been the worst frontman I’ve ever worked with,” LeNoble wrote in series of posts on X/Twitter Sunday night (September 29th). “Always a kind word, followed by shitty actions. The fish rots from the head down. I still don’t understand how he channeled some of those great lyrics & vocals on the first two Jane’s records.”

LeNoble went on to cite other “difficult” singers he’s worked with, including the late Mark Lanegan, Scott Weiland,...

On the heels of Jane’s Addiction canceling their tour following an onstage physical altercation between bandmates, guitarist Dave Navarro has hinted that the legendary alt-rock band is over. The revelation comes via a new Instagram post in which Navarro laments, “I am gutted that things ended this way.”

Last Friday (September 13th), singer Perry Farrell shoved and punched Navarro onstage during a show in Boston. As the frontman was being pulled off the guitarist, it appeared that bassist Eric Avery landed a few punches on Farrell. The incident resulted in Jane’s Addiction canceling the remainder of their tour with Love and Rockets. A statement from Navarro, Avery, and drummer Stephen Perkins cited Farrell’s erratic behavior and “mental health difficulties,” while Farrell himself apologized to Navarro and the band’s fans.

On Wednesday (September 18th), in the wake of the tour cancellation, Jane’s Addiction released the new single “True Love.

The speed with which press cycles churn these days, it can be hard for anyone to maximize their time in the spotlight. So, it’s hard to begrudge Jane’s Addiction for taking this opportunity — two days after canceling a big reunion tour following an onstage altercation between bandmates Perry Farrell and Dave Navarro — to release a new single.

The track is called “True Love,” and the band actually debuted it live over a year ago near the end of a show in Bakersfield, California. At the time, the band’s onstage lineup featured Farrell,...

Jane’s Addiction have released the new song “True Love” — the second single from the band’s reunited classic lineup.

The track comes at an awkward time following the cancellation of the group’s remaining US tour dates due to singer Perry Farrell’s concerning behavior toward his bandmates. The turmoil culminated with Farrell throwing a punch at guitarist Dave Navarro during an onstage confrontation at a show in Boston last week, leading to Farrell being subdued by his stage crew and bandmates.

It was announced on Monday (September 16th) that the rest of the US tour would be cancelled, with Navarro and fellow Jane’s Addiction members Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins citing “a continuing pattern of behavior and the mental health difficulties of our singer Perry Farrell” in a joint statement.
