By today's conventional wisdom aren't all people white people considered racist? And I'm guessing her fans are about 99% white. Her fan base is whiter than Rush's. (But probably a lot more LGBT, and more sexist considering that 95% of their fans are male.)

Also, if she makes music that overwhelmingly appeals to white people, does that make her racist?



For those of you in Rio Linda, this woman had her first success in a band, when she was a teenager, that was a Christian band.

Sorry little goofy girl, but I wasn’t planning to go anyway. It’s an “AFFORDIBILITY” thing. Never heard of you either. I heard of Haley Mills but you’re no Haley Mills.

Typical leftist hypocrite. Proving how inclusive she is by excluding a large segment of the population.

These entertainment people are so weird. I’ve never had a plumber or a barber list political conditions that I had to meet before using their services.

I just paid their fee, and in return they performed the service.

I guess the difference is that plumbers and barbers have to actually work for a living.

Hayley, as a Christian in a band that has openly identified as Christian were you worried that your audience might not accept Tegan and Sara (Quin) as they are lesbians and not a part of the Christian rock scene?

Fortunately, we’ve never really been associated with the Christian rock scene. I wouldn’t want to be a part of something so easily pigeonholed. It’s an understandable misconception, though — we’ve never preached, but if someone asks us about our faith, we’re not scared to talk about it.

The biggest fault I find within the Christian community is that there are too many judges in the courthouse. What I know is that I’m not going to let myself be one of those. Not to sound selfish, but I’ve got my own life to figure out and faith is constantly surprising me. Hopefully, we’re surprising people too. I mean, who would’ve thought that Christians can actually hang out with lesbians without bursting into flames?! (Disclaimer: It’s a joke, people.) …

So much for Williams’ alleged Christianity. Jesus said to “judge righteous judgment” (John 7:24), not to throw all judgment away.

Never heard of her. As W.C. Fields put it “Go away kid, ya bother me!”

It may indeed be a “solo tour.”

“this woman had her first success in a band”

The Annoying Communist Lobsters? Great band, if you like that kind of thing.
Never heard of her club member.

Who is Haley Williams, and why should I care?

Is this story perhaps a stunt to gin up publicity by provoking some knee jerk denunciation?
