On July 26, Rebecca, the lead singer of the French band Lulu Van Trapp, made headlines after performing topless at the Le Cri de la Goutte festival in France as a protest against being sexually assaulted during her performance.
The incident occurred when Rebecca stepped off the stage to interact with the audience. While she was in the crowd, one man pinned her arms, and another man groped her. Despite this disturbing assault, Rebecca swiftly returned to the stage. She boldly shouted for the man responsible to “get the he** out of the show,” refusing to allow the situation to stop the performance.
Rather than halting the concert, Rebecca continued to sing topless. She made a powerful statement, saying, “Until it becomes normal. Until your brains stop sexualising it.” This moment was her way of challenging the normalization of such behavior and standing up for herself in the face of harassment.
The incident quickly sparked outrage, but the organizers of the Le Cri de la Goutte festival stood by Rebecca, condemning the attack. They called the assault “unacceptable” and supported her right to continue performing as she chose. The festival’s response highlighted the need for more respect and safety for performers and attendees at live events.
This act of defiance has drawn attention to the ongoing issue of sexual harassment, especially in the music and entertainment industries. Rebecca’s protest serves as a reminder that sexual assault is never acceptable, and standing up against it is necessary to create a safer, more respectful environment for everyone.
Rebecca’s powerful protest at the Le Cri de la Goutte festival not only highlighted the assault she faced but also raised awareness about the broader issue of sexual harassment in live performances. The response from festival organizers reinforces the message that such behavior will not be tolerated, and those affected will be supported in their fight for justice.
