Jack Black axes tour over bandmate's President Trump comment

Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment on stage about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.

He appeared to reply: "Don’t miss Trump next time."

In a statement on Instagram, Black said he was "blindsided" by the comment.

"I would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence in any form," the comedian and actor wrote.
