Country star John rich celebrated his win in a COVID-19-related lawsuit, saying he is happy to have ānever bent the knee.ā
Rich took to Twitter to share the news with his followers.
āDuring the lockdowns, I stated Iād NEVER play a concert venue that forced fans to show their āpapersā for entry concerning Covid,ā Rich tweeted Thursday.
He added, āOne venue added that rule after I agreed to play, so I cancelled it. The promoter sued me. He LOST the case today! Happy to say I never bent the knee.ā
Several supporters praised Rich.
Fox Newsā Joey Jones tweeted, āThank you for being authentic my friend!ā
Republican Kari Lake wrote, āYou are a hero. Thank you for standing up EARLY ON for our Medical Freedom and Medical Privacy.ā
One user simply said, āCongrats, . Thank you for refusing to bend the knee.ā
Still, there was some pushback with one user writing, āI wonāt be attending any of your concerts anytime soon. With that attitude, the likely attendees are going to be a concentrated group of anti-vaxxers. It sounds like a great place to catch Covid. To other John rich fans: if youāre smart, you will stay away too.ā
Rich replied, āSounds like a plan.ā
The country singer previously voiced his criticism of former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Reacting to the news that Fauci would be stepping down from his role, Rich tweeted, āFauci has resigned. Iām guessing itās so he has time to prepare with his lawyers for his appearance at the 2023 Nuremberg Code trials.ā
