喜剧演员凯西·格里芬周三表示,歌手埃德·希兰本该告诉吉列体育场老板、亿万富翁罗伯特·克拉夫特“去你的”,因为后者因麦克尔摩尔的“自由巴勒斯坦”噱头而禁止他作为开场表演嘉宾登台。
Comedian Kathy Griffin said on Wednesday that singer Ed Sheeran should have told Gillette Stadium owner and billionaire Robert Kraft to "go f--- yourself" after barring Macklemore from performing as his opening act over his "Free Palestine" stunt.
在接受Queerty采访时,格里芬评论了麦克尔摩尔本月早些时候被踢出希兰剩余巡演一事,此前他在表演中多次高呼“自由巴勒斯坦”并演唱了反以色列歌曲《欣德大厅》。这一决定是在克拉夫特禁止麦克尔摩尔在吉列体育场演出后做出的。
In an interview with Queerty, Griffin commented on Macklemore being pulled from the rest of Sheeran's tour earlier this month after he repeatedly pushed for a "Free Palestine" during his act and performed his anti-Israel song "Hind's Hall." The decision came after Kraft barred Macklemore from performing at Gillette Stadium.
虽然希兰表示该决定最终来自演唱会推广方和场馆而非他本人,但格里芬辩称,希兰当时本可以、也应该为麦克尔摩尔辩护。
Though Sheeran has said that the decision ultimately came from the concert promoter and venues rather than him, Griffin argued that Sheeran could have, and should have, defended Macklemore at the time.
麦克lemore的争议漫史:从格莱美获奖到“自由巴勒斯坦”演唱会言论“但愿埃德·希兰没有听从那些让他解雇麦克lemore的人的建议,”格里芬说。“咱们别听那个该死的罗伯特·克拉夫特的。当罗伯特·克拉夫特说我已经给所有其他体育场老板打过电话了,他们也不会让你和麦克lemore一起演出时,埃德·希兰本该说‘去你的,我可以去巴西为25万人演出’。他有更多选择。”
MACKLEMORE'S LONG HISTORY OF CONTROVERSY FROM GRAMMY WINS TO 'FREE PALESTINE' CONCERT REMARKS "I wish that Ed Sheeran had not taken the advice of the ones who told him to fire Macklemore," Griffin said. "Let’s not be listening to f------ Robert Kraft. When Robert Kraft says I’ve called all the other stadium owners and they’re not gonna let you do the show with Macklemore either, Ed Sheeran should’ve said go f--- yourself, I can go to Brazil and perform for 250,000 people. He had more options."
格里芬补充说,麦克lemore的言论受第一修正案保护,并表达了自己对“自由巴勒斯坦”的支持。“我认为‘自由巴勒斯坦’并不是什么有争议的话,因为依我之见,那里正在发生真正的种族灭绝。我不希望以色列被消灭。我爱以色列人民,就像我希望世界其他地方的人喜欢美国人民但讨厌[唐纳德·特朗普]总统及其内阁和我们现在的最高法院一样。所以我受不了[以色列总理]比比·内塔尼亚胡。我认为他毁了以色列议会,也就是他们的国会。但我肯定不跟犹太人或巴勒斯坦人有仇。他们都在努力生存。我个人认为巴勒斯坦应该成为一个独立的国家,”格里芬说。
Griffin added that Macklemore's comments were protected under the First Amendment and professed her own support for a "Free Palestine." "I don't think 'Free Palestine' is such a controversial thing to say because that's a genuine genocide that is happening there, in my opinion. I don't want Israel to be eradicated. I love the Israeli people as I hope the rest of the world likes the American people but hates [President Donald] Trump and his cabinet and our current SCOTUS. So I can't stand [Israeli Prime Minister] Bibi Netanyahu. I think he's ruined the Knesset which is their Congress. But I certainly don't have a beef with the Jewish people or the Palestinian people. They're both trying to survive. I personally think that Palestine should be its own country," Griffin said.

针对被移出希兰巡演一事,麦克lemore于周四宣布将发起自己的“自由巴勒斯坦巡演”。截至目前,他已安排三场演出:10月26日在都柏林、10月29日在巴黎、10月30日在伦敦。
In response to being removed from Sheeran's tour, Macklemore announced on Thursday that he would be launching his own "Free Palestine Tour." As of now, he has three shows scheduled: in Dublin on Oct. 26, in Paris on Oct. 29 and in London on Oct. 30.
尽管麦克lemore因政治行动获得进步人士支持,但这位歌手也面临亲以色列组织的批评,他们指责他支持反犹太主义。
Though Macklemore has received support from progressive figures for his political actions, the singer has also faced criticism from pro-Israel organizations who accused him of supporting antisemitism.
以色列裔美国人委员会(IAC)向福克斯新闻数字版发布声明,支持克拉夫特反制麦克勒莫的行动。
MACKLEMORE BAN BY ROBERT KRAFT DRAWS FIRE FROM AOC AND CAIR WHO ADVOCATE FOR FREE SPEECH ONLY WHEN CONVENIENT The Israeli-American Council (IAC) released a statement to Fox News Digital supporting Kraft's actions pushing back against Macklemore.
声明称:“以色列裔美国人委员会(IAC)为罗伯特·克拉夫特及其同僚体育场业主因道德领导力而将说唱歌手麦克勒莫从演唱会舞台驱逐、而非允许他宣扬反犹太主义表示赞赏。”
"The Israeli-American Council (IAC) applauds Robert Kraft and his fellow stadium owners for their moral leadership in expelling rapper Macklemore from the concert stage rather than allow him to promote antisemitism," the statement read.
声明补充道:“罗伯特·克拉夫特的道德领导力确立了一个本应显而易见的原则:散布反犹太主义的表演者不应获得舞台。因此,麦克勒莫将不再被允许让观众忍受其充满仇恨的咆哮。IAC 向克拉夫特先生致敬并感谢他为所有人树立了榜样。”
It added, "Robert Kraft's moral leadership establishes what should be an obvious principle: a performer who traffics in antisemitism should not be given a stage. As a result, Macklemore will no longer be allowed to subject audiences to his hateful rants. The IAC salutes and thanks Mr. Kraft for setting an example for all to follow."
