This story took place in 1996, when Keith Flint made nasty comments in a NME interview about Goldie and his fianceé, Björk. This led Goldie to wear a “Cunt Face” T-shirt featuring Keith’s face, at Brighton Festival that year.
After that Muzik Magazine featured a quote from an official letter where Keith apologised to Goldie & made a special interview with both of them, meeting each other for the first time!
Goldie: ” At first when Keith tried to call me i couldn’t fucking speak to him man “
Keith: ” This whole episode was really ruined my year, especially as it came right on the back of our success with ‘Firestarter’. I’d never done vocals on one of our tracks before, and to do them successfully, and be accepted by the people live, was a massive buzz.
Needless to say, it was completely smashed to pieces, when all this shit came about. It was the last fucking thing i needed. I’m just glad it’s over.I’m fucking relieved, actually. “
Goldie was satisfied with the official apology and later on, presented the Prodigy as the Best Dance Act in the 1996 MTV Europe Music Awards at London’s Alexandra Palace, where it was their second time they’ve ever met.
