Sia’s Music is hitting a very sour note with thousands online.

The Aussie singer’s feature directorial debut has already been widely panned by critics and otherwise concerned viewers, but that hasn’t stopped the masses from rushing to sign a petition to have the film officially condemned by the industry – by way of removing its two 2021 Golden Globe award nominations. source

The Change.org campaign has already amassed 100,000 signatures since the petition was launched last week. 

The online petition  states, 
'Sia's debut movie “Music” is severely ableist and contributes to harmful stereotypes of autistic people. The Golden Globes must rescind its two nominations for “Best Musical/Comedy Picture” and “Best Musical/Comedy Actress: Kate Hudson”, and the entertainment industry must promise to actively work towards inclusion and better disability representation.'

This is just becoming more and more messy. Honestly feel bad for Sia and her hard work. Has anyone watched it? How was it? Was it as harmful as they say?

This is the Gaga curse at work.

What a pointless drama. It’s like she murdered a baby.

As someone who has someone who’s autistic in my family I can say that there is NOTHING bad in that movie. People are overreacting as usual.

Just her general 1000 Forms of Fear persona, which was VERY reminiscent of Gaga's TFM persona. The similar wigs, the concept of fear like the fear of men monster on TFM and the former songwriter turned popstar angle with performance artist aesthetic to boot.

You're telling me Sia wasn't walking around with an oversized Fame Monster wig in that era?

This thread may help for you to understand why it is an issue

Wow.  

[zakariah 11,016]

as a first-time director/producer/writer, why the actual F*CK would Sia try to tackle such heavy and deep topics in her debut film

i'm sorry but if you ask me, she acted irresponsibly, and it just comes off as snobby, thinking she's some sort of artistic messiah
