Australian rapper Ian salia recently did an interview with a hip-hop station in
New York %ah hot 97 during the interview she talked about why she no longer does
crowd surfing
well she says that she has been the victim of sexual assault among her
bans which is kind of surprising and she also mentions that
isn't necessarily men that are sexually assaulting her let me give you her exact
quote
she said I had to stop crowd surfing I'm only doing like two thousand seniors but
I still have to have barriers even if its like 200 people because people try
to finger me
she also says I will get work tweets from like a week
before my show like I'm about to go to the
E Azealia show and I'm going to finger her and I see it and
and be like please don't that's a violation I don't actually liked that
stuff is that by the end to clarify that you don't like strangers fingering you
so when I first saw the headline I thought like
hey look man gonna go crowd surfing things are gonna happen like working you
talk someone word isn't
inappropriate like there's no way that our bodies are going to be a touch
anybody's bites gonna get us when you go crowd surfing
Anderson but when you read in the details and your people tweeting out
perot
I'm going to try to you know Jose be like yeah
it's that bad like finger her in a bit rate her right that's crazy you know
that's unacceptable its
its absolutely unacceptable it makes me sick to my stomach to know the people
think that that's acceptable that they think that it's okay to do that to
someone
look it's terrible and totally unacceptable in the heat of the moment
you know they always you're my heart when US
on except the rape you but we do you plan it out a week had a time
at sea like if anything could be worse that's worse now and what's amazing to
me is
I and I like that she pointed this out she's like a lot of people will think
that
it's the men did do this to me but it's a lot on my female fans they think that
because it's the music that I put out there
it's okay to treat me that way but it's not you know she has very provocative
lyrics it very sexual I mean which
artist at this point isn't you know they of course I'm exploit the sexual nature
of their content to get a little more attention
and that doesn't give you any type of justification to sexually assault anyone
it's the same argument that people will make
if a woman is dressed provocatively or scantily clad
and then they'll say oh well you know she was asking for it no no one's asking
for that's not
permission to put your fingers and someone disgusting
yet in a provocative we wouldn't let me lay so like his locker see in movies
Robert dinner purcell i'd give you can go around Robert dinner me like you up
all around the street from the park
so she says about the witnesses girl will try to do it more than guys
cause girls think is cool I'm we both have vaginas
it's fine she says the familiar okay now yeah
and and I'm surprised by that to you that that's it's mainly the girls that
are doing it
because I I guess if usually when you think of sexual assault in most Asian
it's because the person who's doing that sexual assault get some sort of sexual
pleasure out and there's a possibility that some other
female fan to do this to get answers sexual pleasures I'm not
you know taking them out but it's just weird that someone would do it because
they think it's cool like hey you're a girl I'm a girl we both have vaginas one
gonna saw you like but
yet no no it's look in a thing is is a downer because then you're ruling the
crowd surfing micron service for me how
when he saw do it but now that I read this that said micro serving his rover
out damn down but here's one time that I crowd surfed
involuntarily who is a famous story where I had attacked by a a
a mob over this way to a angry cuban right-wingers
even when I said Sen de Leon upgrade and
in them like he would sometimes literally pick me up off by Peter was
such a crowd
great an airport you mean about who heads up in and one of the guys who kept
pinching my ass
blanket the show that was bad enough
now these are our vans not even guys are a poster art
and then you had them trying to do this who watches Press rerouted for everybody
so
usery and we understand that the first person to your
appears to be her so I Utah I get that but as we were talking about earlier
it doesn't mean that you could do that to her she's
voluntarily doing it right BB and its partner show
but present even if you're a stripper and she's not a stripper she's just
heard these is a very normal prefer or former
like if I didn't know who that was I'm I guess Miley Cyrus brayton
out but even if your stripper people can come up to you in violent you
great she says she has to wear two pairs of underwear and also on
nude colored leggings to ensure that no one can actually a Psalter the way that
they have in the past
and not also release that as well but you know it i think is she
is making a good decision I in
no longer doing the crowd surfing
just stay on the stage at this point you have a lot of attention you're a public
figure people are gonna do things that are gonna be used even that really
really sucks
but just put yourself in a save situation put the barriers up doe crowd
surf
sorry to the fans but that's just the way it goes and buy you a beer guy thing
to ago the door mirrors ball should
are pictures of my situation your crowd surfing with the red shorts on
people Consilium mom gregory et al are now treated in my car or your mother or
whatever family member %uh viewers but did they get the salted like that well
me too yeah UK anger
yeah
