Eddie Vedder Slams Harrison Butker As 'Such A F**king P***y' During Pearl Jam Concert
HuffPost
Butker gave a controversial commencement speech earlier this month, in which the NFL kicker urged women graduates to choose motherhood over their careers.
Eddie Vedder is sharing just what he thinks of NFL star Harrison Butker: not much.
During a Pearl Jam show Saturday in Las Vegas, Vedder addressed Butker’s controversial commencement speech at Benedictine College earlier this month after extending praise to Jessica Dobson and Patti King, members of the band Deep Sea Diver that was the concert’s opening act.
“The singer, Jessica, and the keyboard player, Patti, they must not have believed that ‘diabolical lie’ that women should take pride in taking a back seat to their man,” Vedder told the MGM Grand Garden Arena crowd in footage captured and posted on YouTube by fans.
“There should be pride in homemaking, whether you’re a man or a woman,” he continued. “It’s maybe one of the hardest jobs, and you should definitely take pride in it. But you shouldn’t not follow a dream because you think you’re going to benefit by giving up your dreams.”
Butker directly addressed Benedictine College’s women graduates in his speech and urged them to prioritize motherhood over their careers. The Kansas City Chiefs kicker then claimed President Joe Biden supports “the murder of innocent babies” and called his diversity, equity and inclusion efforts “a tyranny.”
