One of Halsey’s favourite festivals has missed the mark this year.
\nWith the number of music festival lineup reveals that were announced this week, one particular list of performers caught the attention of the Badlands singer, Halsey. Publicly pointing out what many may have been thinking, Halsey tweets her disappointment in the mostly male-dominated lineup for Firefly Music Festival.
\n“Damn guys come onnnnnn. Where the women at,” she tweeted. “This was one of my favorite festivals I\u2019ve ever played and it\u2019s a shame there\u2019s not more females on the bill. With the exception of (the amazing) Sza, the first like 20 acts on the bill are men. It\u2019s 2018, do better!!!”
\nHer first tweet led a user to respond by asking her to “go off” on someone else over her opinion, where she replied saying, “Who am I supposed to \u201cgo off on\u201d haha. Festivals ASK artists to play. Artists don\u2019t ASK festivals if they can come. I\u2019m just raising a point! So many dope women in music right now!” The user has since deleted their tweet.
\nLooking at Firefly’s lineup, the only well known female performer is SZA, who leads in the 20% of women featured in the festival.
\nFirefly takes place in Dover, Delaware from June 14th until June 17th.<\/p>\n
