Halsey, Katy Perry, Charli XCX & More Slam GRAMMYs President's Ignorant 'Step Up' Comments

Many women in the music industry are calling out Recording Academy president Neil Portnow for his incredibly tone-deaf comments about the GRAMMYs, where he stated female artists need to "step up" in order to be recognized. Of course, that didn't sit well with many people and now Portnow is rightfully being slammed.

"Women in music don't need to 'step up.' Women have been stepping up since the beginning of time," Pink fired back in a Twitter note. "Stepping up, and also stepping aside...When we celebrate and honor the talent and accomplishments of women, and how much women step up every year, against all odds, we show the next generation of women and girls and boys and men what it means to be equal."

Charli XCX was not having it either, tweeting: "Ugh bout 2 step up on 2 ur face.. women are making AMAZING music right now wtf is this dude talking about ?????"
