News about Roisin Murphy

JULIE BURCHILL: Russell Brand's broad brush against him is all too familiar: the wealthy and popular man uses and assaults young people. However, it's the nuance that gives it its levancy and repulsiveness. Two of the most striking features in my opinion are cars, the most common of everyday household items. First, there is the taxi driver who drove 'Alice', a 16-year-old boy, to Brand's home. A man named 'Alice' reminisces about her wellbeing.

Natalie Bird's campaign to ban him began with an article of clothing. She was standing in the sandwich queue when a woman marched over asking 'Why are you wearing that T-shirt?' The 'Woman: Adult Human Female' emblazoned on the T-shirt in question. An incontrovertible truth to some. To some, a red rag to a bull. Either way, it was a controversial pick for a Liberal Democrat gathering. I told the woman I was wearing it because I wanted to debate,' says Natalie, 45. "Well, we'll see about it," she asked me if I was an approved party candidate, which I replied yes.' Natalie received a letter in December 2018 telling her she was barred from serving as an MP or holding office for ten years. The reason? Because she had 'intentionally and purposely aimed to produce a negative reaction... by wearing a piece of clothing that would be offensive to certain members of the party.'

The Irish singer (pictured right) 50, who had taken to Twitter to promote her sixth solo studio album (inset) after it emerged that BBC's under-fire radio station 6 Music ceased playing her songs after she openly condemned puberty blockers. When sitting in her bathtub (pictured left), she told her 78,000 followers, "you should go and stream it and buy it." Ms Murphy also posted a link to Hit Parade, which was announced last week on September 8, and she urged followers to 'buy the physical as well as you can'.

The BBC has defended airing of a song that urged listeners to 'kick' women with gender-critical views. Listeners screamed after 6 Music performed They/Them by Dream Nails, which includes the words 'Kick terfs all day, don't break a sweat.' Terf is a transgender feminist feminist, but is a pejorative used against those who advocate for women but condemn transgender people from using female-only spaces.

On September 1, three days after she made the remarks, BBC 6 Music last featured Roisin Murphy on their airwaves. Her songs had been played regularly before that, including six times in the week leading up to her social media outburst. Despite her album Hit Parade currently ranked second in the charts, Ms Murphy's hits were also played on August 26, 21, 19, 19, twice on the 18 and once on the 16, with the latter at number two.

On the BBC's 6 Music channel next week, singer Roisin Murphy (left) was supposed to be honored in ten hours of shows, but bosses decided against it on Monday, making the station's staff ill. Ms Murphy's songs, interviews, and highlights of her concerts, which were compiled for a program called the 6 Music Artist Collection, was supposed to air between midnight and 5 a.m. on Monday and again on Tuesday. However, they were abruptly terminated earlier this week with no explanation given to production workers. Rather, new shows have been produced to feature woke rapper Little Simz.

Roisin Murphy, an Irish singer-songwriter, is expected to debut on the UK charts for her sixth studio album Hit Parade, which was released on Friday. The album follows her critically acclaimed fifth album Roisin Machine in October 2020, which debuted at No. 14 on the UK charts and became her then-highest-charted solo album. Ms Murphy's highest-charted album Moloko's Things to Make and Do in 2000, which ranked third in the United Kingdom, before the success of Hit Parade.

John Boyne (left) of Ireland (right) seems to have buried the hatchet with anti-gender activist Graham Linehan (right) and applauded the former's efforts to assist women and children, gay people, and lesbians. On X, formerly known as Twitter, the Boy in the Striped Pyjamas author wrote a long letter of apology in which he reminisces about their past indiscretions. It comes after the trans lobby blasted former Moloko singer Róisn Murphy for speaking out against puberty blockers on her private Facebook page this week. Boyne, 52, a prolific writer who is also gay, found himself on the same team as Linehan in attacking Ms Murphy, although several of her gigs have been cancelled after she posted a grovelling apology online. Boyne expressed regret for a 2019 article in The Irish Times, in which he was dismissive of Graham Linehan's role in the trans debate.
