Gabrielle Union has added her name to the growing list of artists voicing support for Recording Academy CEO Deborah Dugan, who was placed on administrative leave less than two weeks before the Gram…
On Saturday, Union posted a statement on Twitter criticizing the Recording Academy for its treatment of Dugan.. “Clearly what they really meant was stand down, turn a blind eye to problems, or be fired. #DeborahDugan truly stepped up & tried to make necessary changes & was shown the door. Been there, done that, got fired too.”
The “step up” comment was in reference to longtime Recording Academy boss Neil Portnow, who exited last year, after facing criticism for a comment he made right after the 2018 Grammys, saying female musicians needed to “step up” if they expect to win more awards.“What has been reported is not nearly the story that needs to be told.
