That was basically Canadian pop star Avril Lavigne’s reaction to a topless protester she kicked off stage during Monday night’s Juno Awards ceremony in Edmonton.
The streaker was protesting Ontario’s development of the Greenbelt. No word on whether she was protesting clothes, too, but she was topless and jumped on stage with ‘Save the Greenbelt’ and ‘Land Back’ written on her body.

The unidentified protester appeared to be wearing pasties on her breasts at the time of the incident.
Video shows Lavigne doing her best to ignore the intruder before spelling things out and telling the topless protester to “get the f— off. Get the f— off, b—-.”
The Ontario government in November issued new regulations to remove 7,400 acres of protected Greenbelt land and open it up for housing. Officials said they expect about 50,000 new homes to be built on the former Greenbelt land, with construction set for no later than 2025.
The move is under investigation by both Ontario’s auditor general and integrity commissioner, and has been criticized by some.
