Morrissey's publicist told Billboard that Moz turned down a cool $75 million for a Smiths reunion that required guitarist Johnny Marr to take part. The offer was for a 2008 and/or 2009 tour according to the report.
This isn't the first time that Moz has turned down millions for a reunion. The Smiths reportedly were offered a multi-million dollar deal to perform at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.
