The AHF flag flying quietly in the crowd at Alanis Morrisette!

I hope whoever it is who has it doesn’t get any hassle for it.

'The "You Oughta Know" singer has previously been open about her experiences with predatory men. In her 2021 documentary Jagged, Morissette revealed that she was the victim of multiple statutory rapes as a teenager, during the early years of her music career. '
...
'Looking back on that period in a new interview with The Guardian, Morissette admits it was a "rough time" to be a young woman in the industry.
"There was no one to hide behind," Morissette shared. "What I found in terms of the lovely patriarchy, was that at that time if men couldn’t f--- me, they didn’t know what to do with me."'

Alanis Morissette says sudden fame at 21 was 'rough' due to predatory men: 'There was no one to hide behind'

Alanis Morissette says navigating her sudden fame at 21, after she released her massive 1995 album, 'Jagged Little Pill,' was 'rough': 'If men couldn't f--- me, they didn't know what to do with me.'

What is the AHF flag please?

I'm guessing it's not the Architectural Heritage Fund that tops Google.

Adult Human Female. The only qualifying criteria required to be a woman.

I'd like to think JKR and Alanis are friends. And drink cocktails together ,and dance like maniacs in others kitchens. AND! They send each other sweary messages when they are pissed of with something.

Plasticwaste · 27/06/2025 20:28

I love her sparkly top.

storminabuttercup · 27/06/2025 20:38

I love AM but isnt she TWAW nowadays despite her views on the patriarchy, feminism etc ?

but then so many are in fear of being cancelled. I hope I’m wrong as too many disappointing me

Helleofabore · 27/06/2025 20:42

Yes!

WarriorN · 27/06/2025 21:21

Yes! Had just seen it shared elsewhere!

II'd really be surprised (pleasantly) if she was not TWAW.

And... it appears she is indeed a gender ideologist -

So many disappointments

Omg just seen! So there really is no point going to one of these festivals then if people are now flying loads of flags in front of the stage. How depressing!

Not the point of the thread I know.

The flags are really high up. Didn’t look to be spoiling the view

Plasticwaste · 28/06/2025 00:53

Flags are a Glasto tradition.

MarieDeGournay · 28/06/2025 01:09

What about this, from the BBC live coverage:
Lucy Taylor Smith - Self Esteem - explodes on to the Park Stage with an ensemble of handmaids - clad in black and white dresses - serenading the audience with Mother and 69 from her latest album, A Complicated Woman.
The word 'Deranged' is emblazoned in neon white behind her.
As her set progresses, she moves into some old favourites that get the crowd going - the handmaiden outfits are discarded for black and white sporty chic to a roar of applause.

Sounds interesting! Anybody see it?

NoWordForFluffy · 28/06/2025 06:26

I'd sadly just look like I was headed for Guantanamo Bay if I wore an orange jumpsuit! 😩😭

BottomsByTheirTops · 28/06/2025 06:30

Anyone else thinking the JKR in an orange jumpsuit is actually a false flag kind of op?
The Led by Donkeys crew always seemed to me to have a subtlety in their stuff missing from other ‘performers’ like Cold War Steve.
Or maybe they have feet of clay like a lot of others and have massively misjudged the sending JKR to Mars thing - she looks so cool! And, as ever, the more sunlight the better!

Daffodilsarefading · 28/06/2025 06:33

We have tickets to see Self Esteem later this year.
Always loved AM. She did a great set.

WinterTrees · 28/06/2025 06:54

Sadly I heard Self Esteem being interviewed on Woman's Hour yesterday and talking about 'women and female-identifying people' or somesuch.

I’ve missed this.

And he did that EDI skit which was very on the nose
