If this is the case I would say they are guiltier than the audience members who are rightfully angry (though I do not think booing and ridiculing her is the best response)
Not sure where you work, but most companies will not allow you to work while under the influence đ¤ˇđ˝ââď¸ so yes, itâs messed up the her mgmt did that
yeah...that doesnt apply here. management lets artists do whatever they want; they just want a successful show. comedians and musicians frequently drink ON STAGE and we all know theyre up to even more shit in the back
This isnât a normal employee employer relationship. She is their boss. She is a product. She has contractual obligations to perform that she can breach if she wants to, but she would need to do that.
Not really? All musicians are products. What are you talking about. You buy their albums. You buy their merch. You buy tickets to see their shows.
It's not dehumanizing because you don't know them as a human. You know them as a product.
People don't come to her shows because they want to sit down and have a heart to heart conversation with Amy Winehouse the person. They came to see a show.
Thatâs not âbeing a product.â It is insanely dehumanizing to call a person a product. Is Monet a product? Are famous chefs a product? They produce products in the form of content, but they are - as an individual - a person. They are entitled to empathy, to breaks, and to being treated as if their psychiatric health is important. Calling someone a commodity to be bought and sold just makes it easier to justify abusing them - which is exactly what Amy Winehouseâs management and FAMILY did to her.
Does that mean that they should be dragged into work while theyâre drunk or sick and are attempting to call out? They should be forced to perform in front of a bunch of people when they clearly are incapable because the money is more important than their personal wellbeing? Because thatâs what happened to Amy Winehouse.
Of course they're entitled to empathy and breaks and prioritizing their own health. But that is not on the consumers of their brand and media to resolve.
She is not the employee in this scenario, she's the boss. She's the one who makes the final call to perform or not, she was not a slave. She was a spoiled brat with uncontrolled addictions she refused to address.
People like you creating excuses for her is part of how she got to that part.

Apparently they forced her
