It was nice that Styles mentioned the topic. It would have been more useful if he mentioned women and then refused to accept/keep the award until women were given equal treatment again by the Brit Awards.

I hadn't actually thought of that but I agree, he won three others that night anyway.

One bloke in a snit destroyed all women's representation overnight.

Anyone still clinging to the hope that women's equality is a long ago achieved thing?

It was indeed totally predictable so I am afraid I have absolutely zero sympathy.

Except I have a LOT of sympathy for all the terrific women musicians. I don't keep up with the day-to-day of pop/rock music, but the lead singer for London Grammar is an amazing vocal artist. And what about Roisin Murphy, whose new album soared up the charts?

I don't even really think it's just about a leg up for woman. I don't think it's always easy to compare male and female performances. Of course you can, but sometimes too much deference makes it harder to rank things.

Not that I have much time for awards stuff anyway, these days I always end up thinking, is this really the best we produce?

TempestTost · 25/11/2023 14:40

difference, nor deference, lol.

5 men, 5 women --> sexist, transphobic, biphobic

10 men, 0 women --> teething issues

Majority men, more than 0 women --> diversity at last.

Magic, I believe it's magic.

Goodness me, my post was deleted for telling the truth about a pop star.

And I didn't even refer to him as fat

No, you referred to him as a gay man having a hissy fit.

HoneyButterPopcorn · 26/11/2023 21:44

Er. Well. If the hat fits…

FarEast · 26/11/2023 21:48

Indeed ...

Is Sam Smith straight? I thought he was a gay man ...

šŸ˜‚I think I know who you're referring to. Let me guess, he's like a modern day Varys from GOT?

Why is that relevant though?
