Hollywood star Jared Leto was forced to stop his band’s long-awaited Birmingham World Tour gig with a cheeky admission. The Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman may have won an Oscar but it seems that hasn’t helped him perfect his lines when performing in his alter ego as a rock star. The concert at Utilita Arena Birmingham was originally supposed to take place on April 20 but was postponed until last night(Sunday, June 9), as the SAG-AFTRA Actor’s strike delayed Jared’s filming schedule in America.
This creative side-hustle for Jared with his brother Shannon has turned into 20 years of soft rock meets emo hits for the pair and this Seasons tour is to coincide with their new album, It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day. But that’s where the famous singer came a little unstuck.

Constantly responding to the crowd, a sign caught his eye saying ‘Acoustic Roulette’ with various hidden song requests on it – but it featured two of his newer songs. Stopping the show briefly, Jared asked his brother for help before admitting they were too recent for him to have memorised yet. He had a quick go, mumbling a few words before grinning cheekily and saying ‘that’s all I’ve got’ before the audience took over.
The adoring crowd didn’t seem to mind this off-piste moment as during the rest.
