Phoebe Bridgers calls out fans who 'bullied' her at airport after her dad’s death
Phoebe Bridgers is getting candid about the price of fame.
The Kyoto singer recently recalled an upsetting airport encounter with a group of supposed fans days following her dad's death in January, noting it occurred as she was traveling to his wake.
"I'm coming from a place of literally -- I'm feeling it in my body as I'm saying it, but -- people with my picture as their Twitter picture, who claim to like my music, f--king bullied me at the airport," Phoebe told Them in an interview published March 29, "on the way to my father's funeral this year."
The 28-year-old added, "If you're a kid and the internet somehow taught you that that's an okay thing to do, then of course I hate capitalism and everything that led you to believe that it's okay to do that."
While Phoebe hasn't spoken a lot about her father's passing, she explained that she was "at one of the lowest points of my life," when she "saw people who claim to love me f--king dehumanize me and shame me and f--king bully me on the way to my dad's wake."
