Aly & AJ Controversy: Everything To Know
Well, the concert of Aly & AJ took place at Alameda County Fair. As mentioned about the lesbian couple, they were reportedly just having fun, dancing together. The love birds made a post on Twitter, claiming that those abusive security guards called them “disgusting” and “there were children here.”
The couple also shared that they were “barely touching each other” while dancing. One must know that there were not just security guards but also police officers, 4-6 in number. Even though Aly & AJ had nothing to do with this, people are highly disappointed as the incident happened in their concert. One from the lesbian couple shared that the guards also called them “idiots” many times.
Things turned ugly after they told the couple that Aly & AJ wanted them to leave their concert. Well, we doubt if the sisters would behave like this with their fans. The couple cited that the only reason why they were escorted off the fair was because of their “being public gay.” Do you think it’s fair enough?
Following this incident, the couple shared that they felt very uncomfortable and unsafe. They were scared too. Not everyone knows that Aly & AJ are huge supporters of the LGBTQ+ youth charity The Trevor Project. In case you are unaware, it focused on suicide prevention among the LGBTQ community.
Knowing this, do you think that they had asked the security guards to kick the lesbian couple out of the fair? No. They didn’t. The singers also collected funds from fans at the concert for charity. Aly & AJ also made a Twitter post, stating that they successfully managed to collect $38,000.
After noticing the entire incident, Aly shared that the guards shouldn’t have done that. She further added that it was a Pride event, and people had the right to be whoever they were. Also, people were allowed to do whatever they could. The lesbian couple praised Aly for noticing and speaking for them. The sisters defended them, and that’s the best part. Despite this, they failed to make it to the show again.
Briefly, the harsh behavior of those security guards created controversy surrounding Aly & AJ. But the sisters shouldn’t be blamed. It’s been several years, but the incident is indeed a shame, especially for the LGBTQ+ community.
Best wishes to Aly & AJ for their upcoming musical project. Make sure to follow Aly & AJ on their Instagram account for more updates.
