Noah Weiland is apparently banned from his father Scott Weiland’s account.
The singer took to Instagram to celebrate Father’s Day on his story. He revealed that he was banned from his father’s account and that he couldn’t tag him to the story:
“Happy Father’s Day dad… I’d tag you but unfortunately I’m not even allowed to tag my own father on social media anymore!”
He then shared the screenshot of his father’s account in another story and wrote:
“Whoever runs this account can f*ck themselves, wanna unfollow me from my own father’s account?”
Noah got fed up and shared another story flipping off the people who run his father’s account. He also mentioned being the only person that ‘never wanted a penny’ from him:
“Literally all I do is make music, stay sober, hit the beach & mind my own business these days and people that I could care less about always wanna pop up or get in the way of things. I wouldn’t even say anything negative about anyone if people would just leave me the f*ck alone. But unfollowing me from my own dad’s Instagram account when I’m literally the only person actually trying to do something for him is some BS man. The only person who can truly say they never wanted a penny from him & just to feel closer that’s it, is ME… Jeez.”
Weiland Was In Debt
Noah’s recent comments came six months after he revealed how much his father was in financial debt when he passed away. Reports revealed that Scott Weiland faced serious financial problems before he died. According to a 2019 article from The Blast, the IRS filed a tax lien against him for unpaid federal income taxes from 2012 to 2014.
Additionally, Scott’s ex-wife, Jamie Weiland, confirmed that he had a large amount of debt when he passed away.
Scott Is ‘Under Attack’ By His Father’s Team
A few months after Noah’s comments last year, he revealed that he had been blackmailed by someone who had an old version of a song featuring his late father’s vocals. Noah shared a screenshot of the song he released on YouTube and the threatening message he received. He also wrote in the caption:
“Can’t believe I’m saying this right now but basically I’ve been getting blackmailed by a random number that somehow has a very old version of a song I have with my father. And because of that, I am basically forced to release a song I had no intentions of releasing until way further into my career cause this coward really thinks I’m about to send them $2k to not leak it.”
Noah and Lou Reed’s son Spencer Carr Reed modernized one of his father’s unheard songs as if he featured in the song. The singer said no one in his father’s team ‘bothered’ to release unheard music to keep his memory alive, so he did.
Days after releasing the song, Noah alleged that his father’s team was coming after him. Noah took to Instagram to explain the situation. He wrote:
“30k on YouTube within the first 2 days. Out on all platforms now. And that’s all while being blackballed from the industry (my old band), my dad’s ‘team’ trying to report the song & get it taken down, no label & mgmt, dropped randomly with no promo/press & definitely no money backing me.”
