A day after an expletive-filled Instagram rant blaming animal cruelty at Chinese wet markets for the coronavirus outbreak caused a social media backlash, Canadian singer-songwriter Bryan Adams apologised for the comments deemed racist and offensive.
Writing on his Instagram account on Tuesday the Canadian rock musician apologised "to any and all that took offence" to his previous post. "No excuse, I just wanted to have a rant about the horrible animal cruelty in these wet-markets being the possible source of the virus, and promote veganism," wrote Adams, known for songs like (Everything I Do) I Do It For You and Summer Of '69.
