PETALING JAYA: The organisers of the Good Vibes Festival have been summoned to explain an incident involving Matt Healy, frontman of British band The 1975, who criticized Malaysia’s LGBT laws and kissed his male bandmate Ross MacDonald on stage during their performance. The incident, which took place at the festival grounds on Sepang International Circuit on Friday night, prompted Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil to intervene.
Fahmi Fadzil responded to mStar’s report on the incident by quote-tweeting it, expressing his disapproval of the disrespectful act. He further stated that he had summoned the organisers to provide an explanation and that he would contact the authorities for a comprehensive report.
Ini satu tindakan yang sangat biadab. Saya telah panggil penganjur untuk beri penjelasan esok, dan akan berhubung dengan pihak berkuasa untuk dapatkan laporan penuh. https://t.co/f4yf4s2XQP
