Awesome As Fuck masuk MSN.com, Billie dipuji Times Talk

Album live Green Day yang akan dirilis selanjutnya, Awesome as Fuck, masuk di daftar most anticipated albums of 2011di MSN.com

“Title says it all, dunnit? The kings of political hooliganism continue to appeal to the angry adolescent in all of us. Green Day’s upcoming live album — their sixth — documents the Bay Area veterans’ arena-punking 21st Century Breakdown tour, with accompanying DVD footage of a pair of shows in Tokyo.”

Sementara itu, The New York Times juga memberikan pujian-pujian untuk Billie Joe atas apa yang dilakukannya di Drama Musikal American Idiot, mereka juga bahkan memberikan10 foto ekslusif Billie di Broadway.

“The most notable, and commendable, aspect of Mr. Armstrong’s performance as the drug pusher St.Jimmy is how notable it is not, in a fundamental sense. Although ripples of excitement spread through the audience in the moments before his entrance, and the raucous cheers of fans rise when he comes slamming onto the stage, Mr. Armstrong is not merely strutting around spreading stardust.

Certainly he brings his own style and charisma to bear on the role, as any actor would. But at no point does Mr. Armstrong indulge in extraneous audience pandering or self-indulgent showboating. “American Idiot” is an ensemble show, an aching portrait of disaffected youth in search of itself. Mr. Armstrong, who wrote the songs (with Green Day) and wrote the book with the director, Michael Mayer, naturally has a stake in maintaining its integrity. He’s not here to undermine it with focus-pulling grandstanding, and he doesn’t. He plays the role, and plays it very well. “
