French Pop Singer Rebecca Bibi Confronts Harassment Onstage with Powerful Protest
Rebecca Bibi, the lead singer of the French pop band “Lulu van Trapp,” has become a focal point of discussion after a courageous act of protest against sexual harassment during a live performance. While on stage at the “Le Crey de la Got” festival in France, Bibi reported being subjected to unwanted touching by members of the audience.
In a defiant response to the assault, Bibi chose not to halt the performance. Rather, she addressed the audience directly about the incident and then removed her shirt, completing the remainder of her set topless. Her intention, as stated in a now-deleted Instagram post, was to challenge societal norms and perceptions surrounding female bodies and sexuality. “I have two options,” she reportedly wrote, “Either you stop the ceremony and loose everyone, especially I, or to continue. I will remain bare chest until it becomes normal. Until your minds get used to that it is not a sexual thing.”
The “Le Crey de la Got” festival organizers issued a statement expressing their solidarity with Bibi and the “Lulu van Trapp” band. They condemned the behavior as unacceptable and contrary to the festival’s core values, emphasizing their commitment to providing a safe space for expression and interaction. “This behavior is not acceptable at all,” the statement read. “It is completely inconsistent with the values of the Cree de la Got festival, we condemn it strongly. We recall that our festival seeks to be a safe space, a place for participation and freedom, where everyone must be able to express themselves, creativity, interaction, and live without fear. Music brings us together, and it should never be a reason for violence.”
The band has thanked the festival organizers, and Bibi has indicated she will share further details about the incident soon. Bibi’s actions have ignited a significant online conversation,drawing widespread praise for her bravery and strength,alongside criticism of the behavior she experienced.
