As a long-time fan of Tenacious D and Jack Black, I must admit that I was taken aback by the recent turn of events involving Kyle Gass’s controversial comment about Donald Trump. However, having followed the duo for years, I’ve come to appreciate their unique blend of humor and music, and I can’t help but feel a pang of disappointment at the temporary hiatus they find themselves in.
As a gaming enthusiast who dabbles in music too, I’ve always admired Jack Black for his iconic film roles, but did you know he’s an accomplished musician as well? Most of his musical prowess is showcased through Tenacious D – the rock comedy duo he formed with Kyle Gass. Over the years, we’ve been touring together, but last month, our plans took a bit of a hit when Kyle found himself in some hot water. He made a joke about former U.S. President Donald Trump, which led to us cancelling our upcoming tour and taking a break. Recently, Jack has shared his enduring love for the D and given us a glimpse into what might be next for this beloved group.
What Did Kyle Gass Say About Donald Trump That Stirred Up Controversy?
The heated scenario surrounding Tenacious D originated in July, during one of their live performances. A video clip from that night was shared online and depicted Jack Black requesting Kyle Gass to make a birthday wish. In response, Gass made a comment that stirred up some controversy.
Don’t miss Trump next time.
The humor displayed by the ‘Elf’ actor was related to the alleged assassination attempt on the ex-U.S. President at a Pennsylvania rally in July. His joke, which went viral, came just a day after Donald Trump was shot. As ET mentioned, Kyle Gass quickly issued an apology for his insensitive remark, describing it as “inappropriate, risky, and a regrettable error.” He also stressed that he opposes any form of violence against anyone. Jack Black subsequently commented on Instagram, stating:
Caught off guard by the remarks made at the concert on Sunday, I want to make it clear that I don’t endorse hate speech or promote political violence in any shape or form. After careful consideration, I believe it’s no longer suitable to proceed with the Tenacious D tour, and all forthcoming creative projects are currently paused. I appreciate the fans for their backing and understanding during this time.
After keeping quiet about the fate of the D following his initial statement, the lead actor from School of Rock has finally spoken up. His recent comments might bring a sense of relief to fans.
How Did Jack Black Address The Future Of Tenacious D?
Just last week, I strutted down the red carpet at the grand opening of my new flick, “Borderlands” (set to hit theaters this month as part of the 2024 movie lineup). As I crossed paths with ET at the event, they asked me to deliver a special shout-out to all the diehard fans of my legendary rock comedy troupe. Although my message was short and sweet, I couldn’t resist giving a little something extra: a confirmation that will surely make their day!
As a long-time fan of Tenacious D, I can confidently say that their music has played a significant role in my life. From their humorous lyrics to their energetic performances, their unique brand of rock ‘n’ roll always manages to put a smile on my face and lift my spirits.
It looks like the D is set to return, although specifics about when and how are yet to be determined. One can’t help but ponder whether Jack Black will find a way to accommodate his duties to the group amidst his current schedule overflowing with commitments. He has been exceptionally occupied this year, promoting “Kung Fu Panda 4” and wrapping up production for the blockbuster movie adaptation of “Minecraft.” There’s also speculation that a Tenacious D reunion might occur in the latter film, though that remains unconfirmed at present. Apart from these projects, Black will also star in an upcoming film called “Dear Santa.” Given his packed schedule and recent statements, it seems Jack Black plans to return to his music once he’s done with the Donald Trump situation.
