JK Rowling Pledges to Buy Macy Gray’s ‘Entire Back Catalog’ Amid Singer’s Backlash Over Transphobic Remarks

Despite fame for being the creator of ‘Harry Potter,’ the best-selling book series in history (with over 500 million copies sold as of time reported), JK Rowling is considered a posterchild of ‘trans-exclusionary feminism’ – a title earned for years of doubling down on her beliefs against transwomen.

Easily the biggest stain on her otherwise pristine career, the author appears ready to add one more ‘F-U’ to her detractors by announcing a show of support for embattled Soul singer Macy Gray, who recently came under fire for the controversial comment “just because you go change your parts, doesn’t make you a woman.”

As Gray braved the backlash – which included some longtime fans promising to boycott streaming her music and attending her concerts – Rowling took to Twitter to suggest she’s willing to pick up any slack the negative press causes.

Tuesday morning (July 5), JK didn’t appear to be “jk” when she responded to a Gray critic who suggested the singer’s career was over due to the transphobic comments.

“Today feels like a good day to ensure I’ve bought [Macy Gray’s] entire back catalogue,” said Rowling.

Though she didn’t expound with details, the message of support was loud and clear to many who already despised the best-selling writer for her previous anti-trans sentiments.

Gray’s catalog consists of multiple compilation albums, a live album, and ten studio albums, which have collectively sold over 25 million copies worldwide.

She’s best known for her debut studio effort, ‘On How Life Is’ (1999), which sold over 7 million copies worldwide and features her first and only Hot 100 top 10 hit, ‘I Try.’
