The Black Eyed Peas showed their solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community during their appearance on Poland’s Tvp New Year’s Eve gig, the same show Mel C dropped out of last week.
When the four-member group appeared on stage they were all seen wearing a rainbow armbands. Apl.de.ap, J. Rey Soul, Taboo and will.i.am showed their support to the community during the broadcast on the Polish public broadcaster.
The act from the “Where Is The Love?” singers caused quite a commotion from Polish anti-gay activists like Marcin Warchol, a member of Poland’s Law and Justice Party (PiS). The political party has taken steps to further marginalize the LGBTQ+ community by proposing laws against the group.
“LGBT promotion in TVP2. Disgrace! It’s not a New Year’s Eve of Dreams but a New Year’s Eve of Deviance,” Warchol tweeted.
Promocja LGBT w #TVP2 . Wstyd!
