Female singer posts offensive posts from fans online

More Chvrches More Chvrches

Lauren Mayberry, frontwoman of Scottish indie-synth band Chvrches is once again the target of online abuse. 

Two years ago, the 27-year-old singer posted a message online regarding offensive and derogatory messages sent to the band's Facebook that were aimed at her. 

And taking to her Instagram account yesterday, the songwriter uploaded a screen shot of one particular nasty and graphic comment made towards her recently, along with a message to the offenders. 

"My band is lucky enough to have some of the most awesome, supportive and respectful fans in the world and we are so excited to be in the studio making an album to share with them" she began.

"Yet, on a daily basis, we still receive communications like this. These people never learn that violence against women is unacceptable. But they also never learn that women will not be shamed and silenced and made to disappear."

She concluded the post by writing: "I am not going anywhere. So bring it on, motherfuckers. Let's see who blinks first."
