Dave Grohl: 'You shouldn't have to do Glee'

Dave Grohl has criticised Glee creator Ryan Murphy for "thinking anybody and everybody should want to do" the show.

Murphy previously called Kings of Leon "self-centred assholes" after the band refused to let the hit Fox show cover their music, while he also stated that Slash from Guns N' Roses was "uneducated and stupid" for saying Glee was "worse than Grease".

However, the Foo Fighters frontman told The Hollywood Reporter that it is a band's right to choose whether or not their songs should appear on the show.

"You shouldn't have to do f***ing Glee," he said. "And then the guy who created Glee is so offended that we're not, like, begging to be on his f***ing show... I watched ten minutes [of it]. It's not my thing."

Grohl then added to fellow band member Taylor Hawkins: "Slash was the first one. [Murphy] wanted to do Guns N' Roses, and Slash is like, 'I hate f**king musicals. It's worse than Grease'. Then [Murphy's] like, 'Well, of course he'd say that. He's a washed-up ol' rock star. That's what they f**king do'.

"And then Kings of Leon say, 'No, we don't want to be on your show'. And then he's like, 'Snotty little a**holes…' And it's just like, 'Dude, maybe not everyone loves Glee. Me included'."

Murphy recently revealed that a future episode of Glee will see the show pay tribute to Fleetwood Mac after acquiring the rights to one of the band's albums.
