Valerie Bertinelli Has Choice Words For Eric Clapton Refusing to Play Gigs Requiring Vaccinations

Valerie Bertinelli did not mince words in response to the news of Eric Clapton refusing to play any venues that require vaccination against COVID-19.

Bertinelli retweeted Rolling Stone’s story about Clapton’s stance along with a photo of her, her late ex-husband Eddie Van Halen and Clapton. The image was captioned, “Once a dick, always a dick.”

Clapton made headlines yesterday (July 21) when he issued a statement in response to U.K. Prime Minster Borris Johnson and his order that people will need to show proof of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to enter any nightclub or any other large crowd venue beginning at the end of September.

Clapton’s statement was shared via the Telegram account of architect/noted anti-lockdown activist Robin Monotti Graziadei and reads, “Following the PM’s announcement on Monday the 19th of July 2021 I feel honour bound to make an announcement of my own: I wish to say that I will not perform on any stage where there is a discriminated audience present. Unless there is provision made for all people to attend, I reserve the right to cancel the show.”
