Billboard Video: Watch 'Rise of the Teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles' ft. John Lydon
Billboard: "Nickelodeon’s Rise Of The
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles bows Monday, Sept. 17. Lydon lends his
unmistakable vocals to new character Meat Sweats. He’s an erstwhile
celebrity chef, now a power-hungry mutant pig who scours the scene
underneath NYC looking for the perfect living ingredients for his
diabolical recipes. Although Lydon is prepping for the new PiL tour,
which starts Oct. 9 in New Orleans, he did pause to embody his new
character for Billboard. “Meat taught me everything,” he says. “Now to
trap a turtle!”
