THE Italian Prime Minister is suing the rock-star Brian Molko.<\/p>\n

Brian, who is best known for being the frontman of the rock-group Placebo, is facing legal action after having an outburst on stage.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The Every You Every Me singer, 50, left the politician, Giorgia Meloni, furious after he had a rant about her – whilst performing at the Sonic Park festival in Stupinigi, outside of Turin.<\/p>\n

Brian even branded the Italian Prime Minister a "racist" and a "fascist".<\/p>\n

Stating his thoughts to around 5,000 festival-goers, Brian could be heard exclaiming: "Giorgia Meloni, piece of s***, fascist, racist."<\/p>\n

According to reports, prosecutors are now investigating the musician.<\/p>\n

This is due to Italy\u2019s criminal code, which states that those who publicly defame the government, parliament, or the army can face fines.<\/p>\n

Despite Brian asking the crowd to not record his statements, a video of the incident has since circulated online.<\/p>\n

Now, Giorgia Meloni is battling the rock-star with legal repercussions.<\/p>\n

The outburst happened in July and since, the group – which has sold 11M records worldwide – went on to perform in in Sassari, Italy, at the start of August.<\/p>\n

In 2017, the band (currently made up of Brian, Stefan Olsdal and Steve Forrest) made headlines as they auctioned off a jaw-dropping collection of items.<\/p>\n

Including more than 300 items and featuring pieces by Vivienne Westwood and David Bowie, the group had a huge clear out to raise money for charity.<\/p>\n

They did so to mark their 20th anniversary and to support Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) and The Mercy Centre, Bangkok.<\/p>\n

Their auction even included Brian's iconic ribbed jumper from the Pure Morning video.<\/p>\n

It also featured a Without You I\u2019m Nothing CD single ft. David Bowie, signed by the late singer himself, and a Vivienne Westwood jacket worn by bassist Stefan, during the band's 1999 BRIT Awards performance.<\/p>\n
