People were not happy after Iggy tweeted out some controversial tweets targeting the LGBT community, and now she has chosen to back out of her performance at Pittsburg Pride
Iggy announced yesterday that she will no longer be making an appearance at the celebration in a lengthy statement on Twitter saying QUOTE – “I will no longer be performing at Pittsburgh Pride on June 13th. This has been a difficult decision as I truly support the event and LGBTIQA communities; however, I feel my participation at this point would only serve to further distract from the true purpose of the event. I am a firm believer in equality. Unfortunately in the past as a young person, I used words I should not have. The last thing I want is for something so carelessly said to be interpreted as reflective of my character. I meant no harm and deeply regret ever uttering those words. As an adult I would never use them because I understand they play a detrimental role in the fight for issues that I do truly believe in. I am sorry to anyone I have offended or disappointed, and I wish all my fans and friends participating in Pride the best of luck.”
The tweet Iggy was apologizing for said QUOTE - “When guys whisper in each others ears I always think its kinda homo.” And…”Wondered why my butt felt like it was about to grow legs, flip me off & walk away. then I remembered i played soccer yestrdy w 5 dyke bitches.” The tweet’s have since been deleted.
Upon hearing that Iggy was performing at Pittsburgh’s Pride, several supporters announced that they would be boycotting the celebration including the First United Methodist Church, the youth ministry of the First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh, the local Gay, Lesbian and Straight Network chapter, and the Garden of Peace Project, just to name a few.
