English singer and songwriter Morrissey recently brought up the burning of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris while performing a song in Portsmouth, England. The artist questioned the prevailing narrative behind the blaze, singing, "Before the investigations they said this is not terrorism."

The singer went on to take a shot at "reparations" discussions by jokingly saying, "I’m seeking reparations from the British press because of the brutality they have dished upon me. And if I don’t get just reparations, I’m going to smash a window and steal a Louis Vuitton handbag!"
