campaign, Guy Sebastian has apologised to his 493,000 Instagram followers, saying he would “never, ever tell people what to do when it comes to their personal health choices”.was among numerous arts sector luminaries and entertainment industry leaders encouraging people to help open up live entertainment by striving for an 80 per cent vaccination rate across the country.
“I’ve always done everything that I can to support my industry, but the campaign was posted to my page without my direct involvement, and whilst, like everybody else in my industry, I want things to get going again, it is not my role to communicate in that way that that post was communicating. “I just wanted to clarify that so that I could speak my truth and people knew how I actually feel, so lots of love.”Tim Minchin, Jimmy Barnes, Marcia Hines, Archie Roach, Paul Kelly, G-Flip, Gordi, Kate Miller-Heidke and Vance Joy are among hundreds of musicians lending their support to #VaxTheNation, along with performers from the theatre, comedy, opera and dance companies.
theMoop_mb It’s just too late ⏰ think of the front liners doing it hard. I doubt many would have had time to have a holiday, drown themselves in cocktails, make gourmet meals for dinner or binge watch Netflix dramas. Oh in case you are checking this pandemic has taken about 18 months.
theMoop_mb Unbelievable preciousness - upset about encouraging vaccinations - so you dont want peops to get vacced - say that. Really ! Imagine if it was for enforcing drink driving or fire ban laws. Look at the news 80 mill refugees in the world in crisis - Get upset about important stuff.
theMoop_mb Does GuySebastian actually stand for anything?
theMoop_mb Sitting on the fence is bullshit. Hospitality and the entertainment industries have been screwed. There are a lot of performers not earning a dime. Unlike you they do not get a royalty cheque month.
theMoop_mb Some serious splinters on his arse from that fence sitting.
theMoop_mb Poor Guy Sebastian, what is he to do He wanted everyone to love him So he split himself in two. He took a stand to vaccs the land and disregard the loons. Now his crazy fans at QAnon don’t want to buy his tunes
theMoop_mb Admirable sentiment but not so much in keeping with the public health advice to get vaccinated.
theMoop_mb I’m sorry GuySebastian you cannot be a saint when you’re in bed with the devil, the media are doing handshake deals with the government whether you agree or not. No free speech on government campaigns. Maybe do what chrishemsworth did…take your gigs elsewhere!
theMoop_mb The question everyone is asking is who's he apologising to? Obviously his anti vaxx and anti science Christian fans. Who else? To everyone else, the apology seems bizarre and unnecessary.
theMoop_mb We should not be taking vaxx advice from singers or politicians FACT
theMoop_mb Irresponsible backing away. Quite pathetic. Vaccination is just as much about family and friends, work mates and being in the community.
theMoop_mb Aww…did daddy Hill Song tell him not to push the vaccine agenda?
theMoop_mb I demand he apologise for the apology to this apology that he will be forced to give.
theMoop_mb Gutless
theMoop_mb Hasn’t he got a manager?
theMoop_mb Why would he do this? Be a champion of the vaccination programme and do not apologise for it.
theMoop_mb Why should he apologise? Everyone SHOULD get vaccinated. If they don't they are the ones who will suffer. Eventually when international travel is available, unvaccinated people will not be able to travel. the airlines are already saying this. also no pubs, cinemas, churches, etc.
theMoop_mb Maybe he needs some publicity to get some financial boost
theMoop_mb Some of the pro-vax messaging is as abbrasive as the anti-vax view is bat shit crazy. Guy Sebastian’s mistake was taking this stance after the fact (and possibly fan fallout)… otherwise he has a point.
theMoop_mb Don’t be sorry GuySebastian you are entitled to your own views.
theMoop_mb Profile in courage
theMoop_mb He's literally just saying he doesn't agree with and wasn't given a say in the tone of the specific message. He's not saying he's opposed to people getting vaccinated. People are making it in to something it's not..
theMoop_mb
theMoop_mb Well,he isn't a doctor so...
theMoop_mb A lot of fans have just backed away from Guy!
theMoop_mb Gene sitting & having a bet each way. If you believe in something have the guts to put yourself out there & up front. The alternative is to say I don’t support this. G 🦋☯️
theMoop_mb Guy Sebastian has moved in with Pete Evans to share the rent and explore mutual ideas on life. Best of luck - they deserve each other !!
theMoop_mb Hard when the anti vaxxers are downing vitamin D and zinc supplements by the truckload. A vaccine is not good news for the vitamin industry. Wait and see the misinformation campaigns when the cure for cancer is discovered.
theMoop_mb The MSM is a disgrace. NO ONE CARES WHAT GS THINKS ABOUT COVID. HE'S A MUSCIAN.
theMoop_mb Too late...you sh!t in your nest...you sit in it...
theMoop_mb His JesusBlood cult got to him.
theMoop_mb Disappointing
theMoop_mb Natures Way Vitamins 🤦🏻♂️
theMoop_mb dilettante obtuse moron
