KATSEYE recently attended Spotify’s Best New Artist Party, part of the celebrations leading up to the GRAMMY Awards. While the group’s bold fashion choices were widely discussed, Megan unfortunately found herself the subject of harsh and unwarranted comments online.
Netizens criticized her outfit, some said so the group’s stylists often failed to match his clothes to his personal style. Others went further, targeting Megan’s natural complexion and “unfiltered” images.– a move that fans found particularly painful.
In response, Megan took to the group’s fan community platform Weverse to speak out. In a message to fans, he urged more kindness on the internet, saying: “Let’s be a little kinder on the Internet,” and pointed out how inappropriate it is to judge the appearance of someone her age.
Her heartfelt message resonated deeply with fans, who quickly rallied behind her, condemning the unnecessary negativity and praising Megan’s grace and strength. Many have noted that criticism over such superficial issues only highlights the pressure female idols are under to meet unrealistic standards.
Megan’s response sparked important conversations about beauty expectations, online behavior and the need for more compassion, especially towards young artists navigating the spotlight.
