Chris Fountain has been suspended from his role on Coronation Street for violent raps about rape after he was unmasked as alter-ego The Phantom.
The 25-year-old actor posted numerous videos on YouTube in which he raps about raping women, bombing houses and stabbing people in the face with syringes.
In one distasteful clip, Fountain rapped about dragging a girl in pink underwear upstairs, and boasted: 'I will f*** anybody up in the worst way, rape a b***h on her birthday.'
