James Blunt Tweets The Real Reason Guys Buy Girls Tickets To See Him

James Blunt is not shy on social media. In fact, the guy's a bit of a renegade, treating his own music career and public image with as much levity as his critics have done ever since "You're Beautiful."

The last we heard, Blunt had burst everyone's hopeful new year balloon by tweeting "If you thought 2016 was bad - I'm releasing an album in 2017." It's one of many examples of Blunt being, well, Blunt, that has won over people like myself who would've sooner jumped into the Sarlacc pit than come within 100 feet of a Back to Bedlam copy.

Now, Blunt has kicked off his 2017 with yet another Twitter #BURN. This time, it's to an actual fan.

"I think you mean things you do for a blowjob," Blunt corrected, under no illusions that men do not necessarily go and see him perform for the music.

Sole remained optimistic, replying: "you are a very naughty boy Mr Blunt. Thankfully my wife is not on Twitter. Unfortunately my children are. See you in Brighton."
