The 1975 singer Matt Healy has done and said some questionable things in the past but apparently eating raw meat on stage might just top them all.
The British rock band brought their At Their Very Best world tour to New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Monday night in celebration of their latest album Being Funny In A Foreign Language.
You never truly know what you’re going to get when Matt, 33, steps onto the stage – as his mum Denise Welch recently found out – but fans probably didn’t have raw meat on their bingo cards.
Clips from the band’s latest gig show Matt kneeling on the stage while shirtless and chomping hard into a huge slab of raw uncooked, unseasoned meat – Lady Gaga and her meat dress would be proud. Needless to say, fans who were both in the audience and who didn’t manage to see the theatrics live, had questions.
Reacting to the bizarre moment, one traumatised concert-goer said: ‘I can’t believe I just witnessed this in person.’
Another tweeted: ‘What the f**k did I just watch surely not bloody shirtless Matt Healy eating raw meat on stage lmaoooooo.’
A 1975 fan attending their upcoming show tomorrow, warned: ‘If Matt Healy gets food poisoning from eating raw meat during tonight’s show and is too sick to perform in Philly on Wednesday, I’m going to LOSE IT.’
‘Just saw matt healy eating raw meat on my tl. My nigh t is ruined [sic],’ one other weighed in.
Another fan demanded to know: ‘Someone explain why I saw a video of Matt Healy eating raw meat on my tl.’

Even Matt’s own mother, Loose Women host Denise, has been left jaw-dropped by his recent on-stage antics after she reacted to a clip of his sexy performance.
One fan took to Twitter to share footage of Matt sitting on a sofa on stage, leaning his head back and sensually smoking with his legs wide open, before gyrating and running his hands over his crotch.
The uploader joked: ‘Rip to anyone going to this show with their parents,’ to which Denise responded: ‘What about when you ARE the parent!!!,’ along with three uncertain face emoji.
The 1975’s tour continues on Wednesday at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden, New Jersey – no word yet on if raw meat will be a feature of the show.
