And while the 34-year-old had good intentions with his outfit \u2013 which was meant to be that of punk rock legend and Green Day lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong, users were quick to point out that he looks like someone entirely different who is currently in prison.<\/p>\n<p>Bradley was dressed in a tight black short-sleeved shirt, red tie, black spiked hair, skinny jeans and fake tattoos. The outfit is known for being worn by Armstrong, but it was also the same outfit worn by Lostprophets Welsh singer Ian Watkins . . . a convicted child sex offender.<\/p>\n<p><b> READ MORE: Inside North Korea&apos;s dodgy &apos;Benidorm&apos; resort where streets are paved with human s**t <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b> For more news, click here. <\/b><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.dailystar.co.uk\/incoming\/article31694426.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/1_X-Tory-MP-goes-to-fancy-dress-party-as-rock-hero-but-everyone-thinks-hes-evil-paedo.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The disgraced rock star is serving a 29-year sentence for multiple sex offences, including crimes against young children and babies, at HMP Wakefield prison.

Then I realised that it is probably the Green Day singer.\u201d Another wrote: \u201cDefinitely the lead singer of Lostprophets.<\/p>\n<p>A third added: \u201cReally bad choice that, and not the best decision &#8211; Lostprophets\u2019 Ian Watkins.

Although he did snap back at one person who called him a \u201cchild\u201d and told him to \u201chave a word with yourself\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He wrote: \u201cAh yea, all the other 100 people there are all &apos;children&apos; too then I guess, seeing as they like having a laugh at a birthday party on a Saturday night.
