Where Is Pop's Response to Ferguson?By Jason Lipshutz, New York | August 28, 2014 5:00 PM EDTAs chaos raged in Missouri, most of pop's brightest stars said nothing about the situation. Why didn't anyone want to speak?
Adam mention:Aside from a few exceptions -- Lady Gaga dropped one "Praying for #Ferguson" tweet, Adam Lambert posted one tweet asking for the violence to end, Madonna posted an Instagram vaguely decrying "corrupt regimes," John Legend wore a "Don't Shoot" t-shirt, and smaller pop artists like Sky Ferreira and Cat Power did their parts -- pop music allowed the news of tear-gassing and unlawful arrests in a U.S. city get lumped in with the international political conflicts (the bedlam of Israel and Palestine, U.S. troops re-entering Iraq, airstrikes in Syria) that few major pop celebrities care to comment on (Rihanna and Selena Gomez among the exceptions). It's not that pop singers are callous: artists like Gaga, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift have raised millions of dollars for various philanthropic projects, and should be commended for those efforts more often. However, speaking out against world injustices requires a different kind of fortitude, a personal risk that carries no guaranteed happy outcome, compared to raising money for charity. In a way, the dichotomy of the two social-awareness breaks in the VMAs telecast -- Common's speech getting passed over, Miley's act getting universally heralded -- mirrors the split between Ferguson and ALS fund-raising over the past month. Pop stars found time to dump ice water on their heads (for, again, a worthy cause), but couldn't find a moment to comment on the death of Michael Brown and its frightening aftermath.
