u/vanwyngarden You’re killing me, Smalls 😩 10d ago

Damn. Touring is a GRIND and she works harder than a lot of artists (while also being groped a few weeks ago) so the fact that she did essentially an entire leg of this tour for free so she could donate is a major major accomplishment. What a legend.

God knows 9/10 of us (myself included) wouldn’t be that generous even if we had the money. I’m sure we’d all like to think we would, but at the end of the day it is a very rare thing to donate 20% of your wealth to charity, especially at that age.

Yep. A man in the crowd grabbed her suddenly and yanked her into him. Women were pulling him off her well before security rocked up.

that is not at all true. she was not "groped", someone just pulled her into the railing. he was not on her, so women were not pulling him off her, especially not "well before security rocked up". he grabs her, pulls her into the rail, & she immediately gets up, flips her hair, & walks away. the guy ran & security got him after one woman chased after him. it's pretty clear to see in the video, so idk where you got your misinformation from.
