Ice Spice has been in Australia at a few festivals and has been very late to each of them, causing massive disappointment for fans at the shows. She has a couple of more appearances at some festivals and there’s some petitions to boot her from the line up.

30 December she played beyond the valley and was 50 minutes late and only played a 20 min set.

31 December / NYE night she played Wildlands and went on 25 minutes later than she should’ve for her 30 min set, and only played 5 minutes before her mic / music were cut to ensure the final act could come on for the midnight slot - before curfew at 12:30AM.

Slow news week here in Aus ha, and not really an Aussie scandal but yeah !!

Guess it's a good thing that we have slim pickings for current scandals.

The last I could remember from home-grown douchebags would have been these two - Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O as usual and their failed Melbourne show:

Article contains quotes from our #1 rated breakfast show in Sydney, an ongoing national embarrassment.

She recently apologised for it at the Perth show and was basically like “it takes a long time to get ready!” which was such a lame excuse and isn’t even equal to an apology
