Twitter has "cancelled" Australian music icon Guy Sebastian for appearing alongside the Prime Minister as he discussed his government's $250 million rescue package for the struggling Arts sector. Mr Sebastian thanked the Prime Minister personally "for listening" to industry leaders and supporting the sector. "You really did hear us out and you heard all the challenges we are facing and you've responded so quickly," he said.
66 per Arts worker to publicly support the Prime Minister, extremely disappointing to say the least. He's lost me," one detractor said. Another user said they would delete every Guy Sebastian from her playlist in protest, a move sure to upset the pop star. "Today was going fine, but now I have to break it to my 9-year-old that Guy Sebastian is a scab, as we delete all his songs from her Apple music," she said.

I wasn't aware that 'twitter mobs' could cancel a person. Sounds like some criminal activity. Reminds me of The Godfather. Seriously... please try to be accurate when providing news.
AStrongerOZ You give them money, and in return they abuse you. Call you racist blah blah! What’s the point? A collective of crying babies
Why did he think this was going to be a good idea
I'm A fan of sky.. But this tweet stinks of bullshit. If it's true.. It cements twitter as the evil organisation we think it to be.
Shannon Knoll wins what was always his in the first place, finally!
Icon wtf, no one knows any songs z
Funny how twitter hasn't 'cancelled' this racist bitch : but they cancel Sebastian for standing next to someone... typical lefty hate-mob behaviour, hypocritical as they come.
THE AMOUNT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 2 BILLION INSTEAD OF THIS LOW AMOUNT OF 250 Million A SLAP IN THE FACE FOR EVERY ARTISTS AND YOU MR MORRISON FORGOT ALL THE SUPPORT WORKERS (ROADIES) WITH OUT THEM NO SHOW OR CONCERT GOES ON IN THIS COUNTRY. JUST SHOW HOW MUCH THIS GOVERNMENT CARES
davidbewart As is our right. Much the same as your network and presenters cancel people who aren't racist Right Wing climate change denying goat sniffers.
What do you expect? You think guy Sebastian was a Hillsong pass around that wasn't controlled? That fake bullshit I'm a virgin bullshit. You think the music industry would have that? TV? AUS tv and media is choc full of Weinsteins. Tick tock
Which industry is GuySebastian head of....or has missed a nappy change again.
Fuck Twitter I went 40 years without it.....if this is your life you dont have one.
Don't worry Sky News, i have cancelled you.
Australian music icon ?
Time to buy Guys music then. Twitter are a bunch of hacks.
Ridiculous !
To be fair. Guy getting cancelled isn’t going to kill us.
Never liked him; but I might listen to him now. 🤣🤣
twitter also told us labor would win the last election in a landslide
That's what extreme left can do for you!! A knife in your back!
GuySebastian is a Hillsong style comrade .. of course he would support Morrison’s MO.
You bloody twerp money for that crap AOG AND HILLSONG HAND IN HAND 🖐 DOING THE BUSINESS
The ‘tolerant’ left.
Nasty lefties!
How long will it be before sky news with its miniscule ratings get cancelled?
Why is this here....isn’t Sky News cancelled?
yes we don't like people who do propaganda for enablers of those who hid child sexual abuse funnily enough, Scott also voted No agsinst marriage equality which Guy has stated he left his church because of. Plus the package is crap, do the maths. hypocrisy propaganda
It just reveals the dumbness of the leftist predatory virtue signalling!
I'm unfollowing GuySebastian he can eat a bag of hillsong dicks🖕
I think he was cancelled years ago
Twitter is full of left scum
Twitter doesn’t represent the real world so it’s irrelevant
Bless
DamagedGoods200 That's why everyone is moving to Parlar app
Ah the twitter bullies! ‘I don’t like the company you keep, even though you have lobbied for this support & contributed to the sucess, I’m going to punish you but really, It's about the delicious pleasure of righteous indignation and feeling superior to you. ‘
Who really cares!
The government shouldn't be giving that money to the arts sector. Let the artists worth billions fund it
Psst twitter isnt real life..it's a lefty sewer
Good on Guy for standing up for the performing arts. There are thousands of jobs in the movie industry, stage, and small productions. And take note, they are being loaned the money, not given a handout like so many others we have to pay back.
I'd deem it an honor.
I've always thought he was a cultist, nepotistic flog.
Boring fuckwits, thinking that their opinion carries weight🙄 they are so mind numbingly predictable in their baseless hate.......
Twitter, the cesspool of hate!
Is this like Scott Cam’s gig? What did Guy Sebastian get paid? Or was it a donation to the church type thing?
LyndaFrench19 Music icon? Boy is that a low bar.
No, some of us 'cancelled' him when we heard his views on SSM and other issues...he and Israel and all the other God-botherers who insist we live by their Bible.
‘icon’ 🤣
What sort of morons do we allow to have Twitter accounts? The last sentence in that article blew my mind. BTW, if you attack my comment, it proves my initial statement.
Article doesn’t mention who wrote it? Why is that?
Oh oh I was just walking past him!!
Very unfair criticism
Says Sky News on Twitter!
I never gave any subscriptions to Rupert, but if I did, I'd cancel them. Suckholes-for-rent always get what they deserve.
WE SURE HAVE!!
Guy Sebastian does not represent the industry he’s a C grade TV commercial entertainer
Sky Bews - you “cancel” anyone you disagree with too. Remember Andrew Bolt and, we’ll anyone who’s not white middle aged miserable and male.
Australian Music Icon!!!! Really?
I just love Right wing outrage. It’s so petty and precious. And rolling out a ‘name’ seems to be straight out of the Scottyfrommarketing PR playbook. Vacuous, shallow and a bit naff. auspol
'Cancelled' ... I know sky news is the bottom of the barrel but I thought they at least had people who understood the English language...
When will fools accept that they lost the last election and we won , so there.
More sky lies
Poor judgment. Morrison is fast becoming poison. In 3 months when all the payments stop and rent evictions start they will hate this government.
suelannin The TV outlet beloved by FreedomWarriors is complaining about some people being critical of a public figure supporting a government policy...
Why the hell is that twitt getting in in the action?
Thank heavens it was not Delta.
Twitter is not real life you knobs....
Icon...WTAF?
So he’s there to support the funding to the arts but gets treated like shit for it! Says it all really!
Seriously, who writes this garbage?
How much was he paid to stand beside scomo?
What a pack of sad, sad little people. Why on Earth would these nutjobs care if a muso is in a pic with a politician, when it's to announce a much needed funding grant? These woke nutters are getting worse by the day🙄 Are they outraged a nurse is in a pic for health grants?
Twitter is full of communists.
What a tosser
Pathetic as usual
Well, it's no worse than what various right-wing outlets do when someone stands alongside progressive figures. BoycottMurdoch
People really are idiots aren't they
Oh dear, the left are always such drama queens.. Well done Guy, you’re a top bloke and I for one will always support you.
Seriously this is ridiculous. How discriminating! Guy is a well regarded person in Australian society and to pick on some one like that is disgraceful. What is this world coming to?
If you read the tweets you would find that they are negative because of his relationship to Hillsong and all the paedophilia stigma that is associated with that church’s leadership. The divisive labelling of those opinions as ‘left’ is infantile.
You know what, I'm ok with that.
Good to see you clowns covering the big issues as usual......
WTF 😳
Leftist horrible trolls. Guy is a self made talent and if the trolls don't have anything nice to say then shut up
He's siding with a crooked government, what do expect decent folk that have standards to do?
Good he’s a homophobic God botherer Now If only we could cancel SkyNews - propaganda machine for the extreme RW
Such a misleading heading. Twitter didn’t cancel anything! Sebastian was criticised by Twitter users. Seriously 😒 thisisnotjournalism
he's not white so what's the problem
Yes sky news isn't that great.Australians waking up to Scumo and his grifters and happy twitter are pointing out the blatant corruption of the LNP. Thanks for sharing.
“Twitter mobs”
Lol, icon
Uhhhhhhh wtf Guy is literally helping the industry?!
I’m sure his fans will keep listening to him even though a few of us realise what a prat he is
Sky's tweet is misleading, moronic and this matter is not newsworthy. Guy's account is up and running and a number of Twitter users being critical of him is hardly anything to get too up right about. Not everyone in life is going to like you. That's not earth shattering.
When Sky News says 'cancelled', it is describing a handful of accounts saying they don't like Sebastian any more. Sky News does this because they're liars.
I support guysebastian
Have you heard his music?...it wasn't us champ.
Icon that is taking it a bit far is it not, it was a bad decision of Guy the Morrison brand is pure poison.
I guess ScottyFromMarketing can add GuySebastian to his tinaarena playlist. What song will ScottyFromMarketing bust out at the next election from Guy? Battle Scars, Let Me Drink or Mama Ain't Proud.
So a “man of colour” is being victimised? Where are the BLM miscreants?
I’ve just followed GuySebastian
I like him more than redskins but not as much as Josh and not quite enough to care.
Good job reporting on what's trending on Twitter. That's real news 😂 Anyway, having read your report, I thought this 'detractor' made an excellent point. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention.
daveyk317 Was that a photo bomb smirk 😏 in the background? Ewwwwe 😳
This is one cancellation I can agree with
The lights are off for this prime minister and nobody is home in his head. The economy had been switched off well before COVID-19. Liberals failure !
I love Guy!
Officially... I hate Twatter!
Grotequesly overstating his credibility
Wow what great news for the arts ! I wasn’t a GuySebastian fan but I am now. Ignore the perpetually outraged “Twittiots”Guy.
He should jump on parler_app
is it cos he is black?
Ten year olds are still writing for you?
Twitter hasn't cancelled him, a handful of Twitter *accounts* have.
Criticising people on social media isn't the same as 'cancelling' them.
People are known by the company they keep I guess.
The left are totally insane. From now on I will automatically support anyone who the left wants to cancel.
I always thought he was mediocre, just did not have it.
Bullshit. Alive and well. GuySebastian
This shows a lot of the arts community are left wing commos
What a lot of BS
The 'outrage mob' are so inclusive and tolerant of people with differing views and opinions. The true bigots.
Like Sky News, Scummos propaganda shitbox
Diversity = everyone must think the same.
Excuse me!
Idiots
FatherBob JESUS people. Calm your farm. I'm no fan of Morrison, but if GuySebastian has managed to get something for the Arts sector when no-one else has been able to, shouldn't we be thanking him
What happened to the phrase: 'I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it'. The Friends of Voltaire, (Hall)
Shows how many alt left fuckwits there are on twitter. Suggest Parler
No one is safe from the mob
FatherBob Guy will learn a life lesson as did Dr Karl and Scott Cam before him. “If you lie with dogs, you get fleas.”
That would be the Sky that hounded a Muslim woman out of the country over an inoffensive tweet she later deleted and apologised for. Bloody hypocrites.
marijuanacomau Ooh, look. There's my tweet. Not sure that my own comment equates with 'cancellation', seems a little histrionic. I wish Guy the very best of luck with his new playmates, and no doubt, this association will propel his career to stratospheric heights.
IamCatyI Guy Sebastian is a Pentecostal why would it surprise he’s a Liberal voter?
Yeah well done Guy 👍
How many of these people on Twitter actually pay for the music they listen to?
DeepSmoke2 The left are the most toxic people on twitter. As most of them have done little that is positive in their lives, through jealousy they feel compelled to bring down a positive person like Guy Sebastian.They also don't accept democracy, and that's why they often resort to violence.
FatherBob What a beat up. Not even a mention of any action by Twitter. Just a bunch of people pissed that GuySebastian was at a presser from ScottMorrisonMP. And then ads for scams at the end of the “news” article.
How stupid is Twitter!!!!
A wonderful Australian
The fact he’s representing ‘struggling artists’ when he’s on a high six-figure deal for The Voice is what bothers me. He has not been affected by the pandemic at all- why couldn’t they pick someone who had actually gone through hardship through COVID?
ridiculous along with tearing down statues and changing names of things.. Get over it !! 😑
Funny how if a celebrity expresses a left wing or progressive opinion they are chastised by the media for doing so in a condescending 'What would they know' kind've way yet it is okay for them to be wheeled out to peddle Government propaganda. auspol
Never good enough for the outraged mob!
Gee what a surprise. This country will never need it to rain again while there’s a never ending supply of lefty tears to flood the joint.
😂😂 that’s hilarious
Sky news never ceases to amaze , more propaganda and Chinese whispers , its a shame I don't watch their rubbish as it would be comedy gold watching Bronny , Peta and jones getting their knickers in a knot over this crap
Go Guy !
FatherBob He’s not really an artist though is he...is more like a cover musician. Cheapening icon by calling him that too
come on Sky News... australian music icon? he doesn’t even look aussie 🥴
Clearly nothing to do with the EdenMonaro election, where majority of people work in art and entertainment. Wonder how much they paid Guy for this interview? But good thing.
FatherBob Good. RealHughJackman next.
The fragile left. I hope Guy doesn’t take the bait and apologise for doing nothing wrong.
Well, yes, when the PM gets industry advice from not one but TWO reality tv contestants and relies on them to implement multi-million dollar aid you know we’ve hit rock bottom. GuySebastian HillsongCult TaxHillsong If Hillsong and Murdoch just paid tax we wouldn’t have $$ woes
Just another Slomo announcement where the fine print will mean no money is given towards anything ? 😏....oh maybe Hillsong will get lucky ? 🤣.......Hillsong “The art of a scam “
Sheer idiocy. The left are totally nuts.
Sky muck media at it again
you don't understand 'cancelled'.
Good luck if you expect equality from a social media format owned by the left.
Can we please cancel CancelCulture
Left at it again :D How original...
Outrage that $250 million isn’t enough (a slap in the face to industries/individuals who lost jobs or got absolute zip from the govt). Then outrage bc Guy said a few words and now should be ‘cancelled’. We’re in the midst of a pandemic and this is where people focus their energy
Correction, some of twitter has cancelled Guy, It is only the perma-offended. In saying that the minority of perma-offended did pick a strange one to be offended by. Good on you Guy for supporting your industry. 👍👍
😂😂😂😂😂at the nutters 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯👌👍
Twitter want might to remember what happened to Napster
I love it when the left get their knickers in bunch over nothng. It makes me laugh.
I was never a fan of Guy Sebastian but this is just ridiculous. The left is just hopeless.
Twitter hasn't 'cancelled' him, people have.
If it was as easy as you describe to “cancel” someone on Twitter, Bolt, Devine, Jones, Kenny et al would have been out of the industry decades ago. Nice beat up.
So much for having free thought, ideas and choice. I guess having the rite to be wrong or having a different view is no longer tolerated in the make believe online world. Only total compliance is accepted.
Trust the scumtifa leftists nazis butt lickers to come out in force.
Didn't realise this was The Onion
markbjardine Perhaps the PM should cancel the package while giving credit to the cancel movement? 'We made $250m available but they told us to keep it, so we did'. Can't say the PM didn't listen.
WoW
Struggling arts? Please!!! These people are the most wealthy. What about your average Jo or Jill who has a family to support and lost their job without having savings to survive? This is total bullshit. Celebs are no more important than anyone else.🤬
Here's a suggestion: Why not cancel theirABC? Instead of all Aussies having to fund it whether they like it or not, why not change to subscription model? Then we can give big chunk of money saved to the arty wankers. (Just once though!) Auspol
'Twitter mobs'. So, if people post tweets that coincide with others' tweets, they are now considered 'MOBS'. Fck off Just fck off.
Look at the religiosity of the left justify their bigotry. Absolute hypocrisy. auspol
if the nazi press says it, it must be true
Three tweets is not twitter. Just like a news channel is not 'news'
How dare he advocate funding for arts that actually might turn a profit instead of binary interpretive dance recitals
Valid question though, how much did they pay him? Why don't you go do some journalism or something?
I did not cancel Guy Sebastian, I merely continued to not listen to him.
😂😂😂😂 lefties operating in a make believe universe.
The LooneyLeft at it again Move to Parler GuySebastian for free speech.
Celebrities and high profile sports people and entertainers would be well advised to keep their heads out of politics.
More likely he's being 'cancelled' for his religious beliefs by the totalitarian Left.
2020 news is just comedy
Yay! Guy is returning to his Christian roots 😀
The same rag that suggests Twitter is irrelevant. If the shoe fits or whatever.
