Liam Neeson continues to dig himself into a deeper hole with follow-up appearances about his recent admission of wanting to commit a racist murder, and Lily Allen is the latest celebrity to call him out.
 
The U.K. pop star condemned the Irish actor onstage during a show in Sydney, Australia, last night (January 5). As NME reports, prior to performing "Fuck You," she said, "Normally, I dedicate this song to Donald Trump, but tonight I'm dedicating it to Liam Neeson."
 
The 2009 track from It's Not Me, It's You features lyrics like, "Look inside your tiny mind / Now look a bit harder / 'Cause we're so uninspired / So sick and tired of all the hatred you harbour" and "Well, I think you're just evil / You're just some racist / Who can't tie my laces / Your point of view is medieval."
 
It goes on to include jabs about being soulless and no one wanting your opinion, in between choruses that repeat, "Fuck you / Fuck you very, very much."
 
Following the show, Allen took to Instagram stories to reiterate her feelings about Neeson and his comments that he wanted to murder a black man as revenge for someone close to him being raped by a black man.
 
"I don't believe Liam Neeson's anecdote, which makes it even more disgusting," she wrote. "I don't know a woman who hasn't been harassed and I have NEVER heard of an instance where a man has actually gone out to defend her honor. It just doesn't happen."
