10 Rockstars That Hate You For Liking Their Music

10. Jim Morrison - The Doors

If there was any rockstar who would wanted to relish in the spotlight, it should have been someone like Jim Morrison. Being the basic litmus test for what a frontman should be, the Doors' resident poet laid out his soul bare whenever he took to the stage, making every single second of the performance feel like life or death. That is, until the Doors stopped by Miami towards the end of the '60s.

Towards the beginning of the set, you could really tell that the vibe wasn't right between Jim and the audience, which may or may not have been fueled by some alcoholic assistance backstage. While the Doors managed to make it through a handful of tunes during the set, Morrison started to show his true colors about midway into their runtime, as he starts to talk about his home in Los Angeles.

Everything starts to turn ugly really fast though once the crowd turns, as Morrison starts to call them idiots and comparing them to slaves that just go along with the program regardless of their own freewill. This was what eventually led to Morrison's arrest after the gig for involuntarily exposing himself to the audience, after which the Doors never took to the stage with Morrison again. For all of the mayhem he stirred up during his lifetime, this is the moment where that initial magic of the Doors was snuffed out entirely.
