    BILLY CORGAN: 'IF KANYE GOT UP ON MY STAGE, I'D KNOCK HIM OUT'

    "Corgan also encourage greater segregation between pop and rock stars: “Rock’n’roll will be fine. I just think it needs to be more aggressive in taking on pop music. Particularly in America there’s a very cosy relationship between rock stars and pop stars – and I don’t think that’s a good relationship. Everybody belongs on their own side of the street for a good reason."

    He added: "By definition a rock star is supposed to be an independent individual who pursues a vision to an end – an Axl Rose, an Elton John. And a pop star is supposed to do whatever they can do to pray at some horrible idol of fame which is ubiquitous and fleeting. And that contradiction to me is why everyone should stay on their own side of the street.”

    Real ? .

    His kanye comment and the pop comment are two separate sound bites from a lengthy interview.

    The pop thing was not in response or in relation to kanye.
