David Beckham has worn both AC/DC and Motorhead T shirts in the past despite not being a fan but his worst was when he wore a Crass T shirt which then spawned a slew of the bands merchandise with the bands logo and the band never received a penny in royalties.

I also cannot stand people wearing a band/football team/movie T shirt for the sake of looking cool and having no knowledge or liking of the product on the T shirt.
