The 1975 could face a lawsuit over Matty Healy’s onstage rant at Good Vibes festival

Malaysian musicians and festival vendors at Good Vibes festival are preparing a lawsuit against Matty Healy following the 1975 frontman’s onstage rant. The lawsuit is targeting Healy and his three bandmates with those affected demanding compensation over the festival cancellation.

During the English pop-rock band’s headline performance on Friday, Healy kissed his bandmate Ross Macdonald and briefly paused the set to slam the country’s anti-LGBTQ+ laws. Homosexual activity is illegal in Malaysia and anyone contravening the law can be jailed for up to 20 years in prison.
