BBC NEWS | Entertainment | Ronstadt casino furore over Moore: "US singer Linda Ronstadt was booed and removed from a Las Vegas casino for praising film-maker Michael Moore and his film Fahrenheit 9/11 during a show.

Some among the crowd of 4,500 stormed out, tore down concert posters and tossed cocktails into the air.

Aladdin president Bill Timmins said Ronstadt was escorted off the property.

However, in an interview with the Las Vegas Review-Journal before the show, Ronstadt was reported as saying: "I keep hoping that if I'm annoying enough to them, they won't hire me back.""

My favourite bit was when they started lobbing their cocktails!! Expensive protest, don't you think? Where I come from [London] the LAST thing that leaves your hand is your drink! We chuck chairs, tables, coins, but never drinks!!!
