But Penn didn't take the joke very lightly, saying: "It's all well to joke about me or whomever you choose. Not so well, to encourage irresponsibility that will ultimately lead to the disembowelment, mutilation, exploitation, and death of innocent people throughout the world." Ouch!

The former front man of the Smiths featured in 'The Simpsons.' But apparently he was not very happy about the way he was portrayed and made a statement on his Facebook page.

Morrissey -

" [...] when a show stoops so low to use harshly hateful tactics like showing the Morrissey character with his belly hanging out of his shirt (when he has never looked like that at any point in his career) makes you wonder who the real hurtful, racist group is here. [...] calling the Morrissey character out for being a racist, without pointing out any specific instances, offers nothing. It only serves to insult the artist.
They should take that mirror and hold it up to themselves."
