‘F*ck Off’: Macy Gray Lashes Out As Criticism & ‘Threats’ Over Her Anti-Trans Comments Continue

Published: Wednesday 6th Jul 2022 by Rashad

‘Sweet Baby’ singer Macy Gray struck a sour chord with the LGBTQ+ community and their allies over the holiday weekend (to say the least) when she took to an interview with Piers Morgan to assert her belief that “just because you go change your parts, doesn’t make you a woman.”

Inciting a fast and furious fallout as a result, Gray has yet to apologize for the comment but did take to press just a day later to say her statement was taken out of context and ‘grossly misunderstood.’

And while the mild backtrack did earn sympathy in some corners including a notable nod from ‘Harry Potter’ author JK Rowling who suggested she was willing to help the GRAMMY winner through the backlash, the overall sentiment remains one of disdain for Macy.

Fed up with the hoopla, the songstress took to Twitter Wednesday (July 6) to impart a stern clap back to detractors.

Amid ongoing backlash for her comments perceived by many to be ‘transphobic,’ Gray hopped online Wednesday afternoon (July 6) to share her thoughts on those who are keeping her name trending.

“All of you coming on my page, threatening me and calling me names – just because I said something you don’t agree with – be whatever you wanna be, and fk off,” she said.

The post is one of many the 54-year-old has made in her own defense as she fields criticism for the untimely statement, which came just days after the end of Pride Month 2022.
