Former Smiths frontman Morrissey turns 60 on Wednesday. He just released a new album of cover songs, and completed a Broadway residency earlier this month.

But the often-controversial singer has also drawn criticism recently for wearing a button onstage and on The Tonight Show in support of the far-right For Britain party. That party has been denounced for espousing a racist, anti-Muslim ideology.
