As conversations about bizarre fan habits proceed to dominate pop music areas, pop trio Muna are able to weigh in with the group’s personal experiences.
In a submit to the band’s Instagram Tales on Sunday (Sept. 8), the group — made up of Katie Gavin, Josette Maskin and Naomi McPherson — referred to as out unacceptable habits amongst a number of dangerous actors in its fanbase. “we love our followers however some stuff has been taking place not too long ago that we can’t be silent about,” the assertion started.
The band described a sample of habits involving “cyberstalking,” “hackings” and “bullying” towards different fan bases and household of the group’s members. “plus spreading falsehoods about us and our family members for clout and a focus on-line has been happening for months and now we have to adddrss [sic] it now for our personal security and peace of thoughts,” the band wrote. “this s–t is really scary for us and it’s actually embarrassing to must submit about this however right here we’re.”
Closing out its assertion, the band mentioned that whereas it might not put any particular followers on the spot by saying their names, “you guys know who you might be. and we do too. minimize it the f–okay out.”
Muna joins pop singer Chappell Roan in calling out unacceptable habits from followers on-line. In August, the singer shared a number of messages throughout her social media accounts, setting boundaries with followers who have been intent on invading her private area. “I’ve been in too many nonconsensual bodily and social interactions and I simply want to put it out and remind you, girls don’t owe you s—t,” she wrote in a prolonged Instagram submit. “I selected this profession path as a result of as a result of I really like music and artwork and honoring my internal little one, I don’t settle for harassment of any sort as a result of I selected this path, nor do I deserve it.”
