Via Daily Mail:
This is the moment Pharrell Williams and his backing dancers made a ‘hands up’ gesture in the middle of their Grammy performance.
The artist took to the stage to perform his track Happy during music’s biggest awards ceremony.
While viewers concentrated on his bizarre bellhop costume the music paused for a moment during the song- allowing the performers to raise their hands in unison.
It took place during a successful evening for Williams – who took home Best Solo Performance and Best Video for the track.
Why hypocritical? Because this is the same guy who said – correctly – that Mike Brown was a ‘bully’ and asked why weren’t people talking about his behavior? For which Pharrell likely caught flak. So now he has chosen to forget it and jump on what he thinks is the #BlackLivesMatter train after it has run out of steam. Sad, Pharrell, sad.
