May 10, 2000 – Korn singer Jonathan Davis has lashed out at band member David Silveria – because he posed for Calvin Klein advertisements.

Rockers Slipknot burned the ads during their stage shows in March 2000 – but Davis dismisses a feud between Korn and the band and says he agrees with Slipknot.

He explains, "Slipknot just had a problem with David doing those adverts, but so did everybody else in Korn. I just thought those pictures didn't suit us and weren't in good taste."

He adds, "More power to Slipknot, man. It's obvious that we've influenced them a lot, but they're awesome and I'm glad that something that heavy is getting its props."
