Kacey Musgraves draws backlash after urging Chicago fans to donate to immigrant children charity
According to the New York Post, Kacey Musgraves faced backlash after urging fans at her United Center concert in Chicago on 21 August to donate to the Young Center for Immigrant Children’s Rights, with the appeal drawing both applause and calls for a boycott on social media. Page Six reported that during the opening night of her Middle of Nowhere tour she highlighted the center’s legal aid for children whose parents had been deported, while The Daily Beast noted that the move sparked criticism from right-leaning commentators. HuffPost added that Musgraves made the appeal on her 38th birthday, further emphasizing the organization’s work for immigrant children.
