"What's always pissed me off about 'Idol' is ... you can't be publicly gay? At this point? On a singing competition? Give me a break. ... The fact that 'The Voice' didn't have any qualms about being completely open about it is a great thing."

Maroon 5 front man and The Voice mentor, Adam Levine, sent Fox News an angry shout out Wednesday on Twitter and requested that it never play his music again – well, those weren’t his exact words.

“Dear Fox News,” Levine tweets. “Don’t play our music on your evil f–king channel ever again. Thank you.”
What can I say? The man has a gift with words. There’s really no telling why he suddenly decided that the cable news channel may no longer play his music. An earlier tweet from Wednesday shows him in good spirits and joking about how Kelsey Grammer and Chelsea Handler’s names sound alike.

At any rate, his fans have become accustomed to the singer rocking the boat. See Levine vs. American Idol or the case of Levine vs. MTV. Or my personal favorite: Levine vs. Adam Lambert.

Adam, you know of course that people like me buy your music because it is good. We don’t buy your politics.
