John Lydon has rejected the “corporate” Brit Awards’ attempt to use the Sex Pistols for credibility.
The punk star said organisers need not bother offering his old band a lifetime achievement award.
“I don't want to know,” he commented. “They're wasting their time and they've been doing that for a long time.
"They think they can just come along and use us. We're not a prop. We were never anyone's prop. They're just trying to glean some credibility,” he added. "I wrote something that meant something and had a serious effect on society.”
