Macklemore écarté de la tournée d'Ed Sheeran après des propos pro-palestiniens
Le rappeur américain affirme avoir été retiré de la programmation après avoir exprimé son soutien à la Palestine lors de concerts.
Le rappeur américain Macklemore a annoncé lundi sur son compte Instagram avoir été écarté de la tournée du chanteur britannique Ed Sheeran.
Selon l'artiste, cette décision serait liée à sa prise de position en faveur de la Palestine, exprimée lors de ses concerts.
Macklemore explique que ces déclarations lui ont valu d'être considéré comme persona non grata par plusieurs salles de concert où il devait se produire.
Ni Ed Sheeran ni son équipe n'ont pour l'instant réagi publiquement à ces déclarations, selon les informations disponibles.
