Sharon Osbourne has called on US authorities to revoke the work visa of the Irish rap group Kneecap following their pro-Palestinian performance at Coachella. She accused the group of hate speech and supporting terrorist organizations, and urged her followers to advocate for their deportation. Despite backlash, Kneecap defended its stance, highlighting its supportive fanbase and condemning violent threats from detractors. The band addressed issues like the British persecution of Irish people during their set, which featured chants supporting Palestine and criticism of Israel's actions. Osbourne criticized Coachella for allowing such political statements.
During their set last weekend at Coachella, Mo Chara said Britain had persecuted Irish people but not bombed them from the skies. The Palestinians have nowhere to go.
Sharon Osbourne accused the band of hate speech and supporting terrorist organisations, emphasizing that music should not promote such agendas.
Kneecap scorned the Fox News comments and posted supportive messages from fans, indicating they received thousands of endorsements alongside numerous violent threats.
Osbourne claimed that the festival compromised its moral integrity by allowing the band to spread aggressive political statements, urging a reconsideration of their presence in the US.
