The 2014 Gretna Heritage Festival has announced that they have dropped Cee-Lo Green from their line up and replaced him with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Green was supposed to be the headlining act for the festival but after last week’s tweets about his definition of rape and his no contest plea in his rape case he’s been removed. See more below!

In a press release the festival’s organizers wrote that Green’s comments were “not acceptable,” and went on to add “Our community does not condone these disparaging remarks delivered by Cee Lo Green, and we feel this entertainer does not represent what our festival is about and has achieved over the past 20 years.”
