Following his Twitter comments regarding rape, Cee-Lo Green has been axed from another US festival and has had his TV series cancelled.

Green has been dropped from the bill at both the JBAB Freedom Live festival in Washington and the Gretna Hertiage festival in Louisana.

As previously reported the Freedom Live festival have removed Green from the bill explaining  on Facebook: "Unfortunately, one of the performers we signed for the JBAB Freedom Live show on 20 September recently posted comments on social media that we consider to completely inconsistent with Navy core values.

Now another US
 festival has followed suit. The Gretna Heritage Festival also released a statement on their Facebook, saying: "Cee Lo Green has been removed from the #GretnaFest line-up, as he does not represent the festival's wholesome family environment." Green's slot on the bill has now been taken by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, a turn of events that has received over 1,000 likes.

It has also been announced that Green's reality TV show The Good Life has been axed.
