The link on that page for Anthony Kiedis (https://www.laweekly.com/can-you-be-a-feminist-and-still-love-the-red-hot-chili-peppers/ https://www.laweekly.com/can-you-be-a-feminist-and-still-lov...) mentioned him getting up mid-interview, on camera (complete with video), and trying to kiss the interviewer, despite her rejecting his advances. That's just one documented example. Whilst I don't know much about RHCP beyond their music, I'm amazed that they are still in the zeitgeist, let alone signed to a major record label. Extremely disappointing.
Most of these I knew about, but some I didn't. Yikes.
- pfannkuchen 3y agoI don’t disagree with you morally, but I think there’s something kind of funny here. My impression of this sort of behavior at that time is that it was meant to be morally shocking to a certain type of person, and that enacting this scandalous behavior would generate attention for the celebrity (and it worked). At the time the sort of person to be offended was like, Christian older people, parents of teenagers, I think. Now somehow it’s shifted to being modern feminists who are primarily offended, and they’re more offended than the Christians ever were! Ironic, no?
