I know that wasn't her fault at all but the loooooooong silence after that and her standing up between performances when people usually cheered (and would chant Ana's name) was.....it was...a lot

i think her greed actively contributed to Ana's death to be honest.

she also never mentioned Ana in her usual essay-long post about the concerts and her PR team made sure to drop all these stupid articles about her shrek looking bf so the news of Ana's death wouldn't be the first thing to pop up in searches. this bitch is transparent as fuck and i have no doubt a lily white american fan would've gotten a vastly different treatment.

that's a very good point and I'd honestly memory-holed that because it was so atrocious. She really gets away with everything.

Speaking of lily white american fans, in her show there's a part where she gifts a young fan a hat.
And apparently in some/a lot of the international shows the recipient has been (a white kid) from the US and local fans have been upset. But american stans are raging that it's fine and who cares and trying to shift the conversation to "omg how could you hate on a child?" (zero people are hating on the kids ffs).

Lots of megastars have featured kids in their shows for a song or something and this is the first time I've heard of an artist not inviting a local kid, when that's always been the whole point...

Her fans demand her to be a better person than she is and when she does the bare minimum, they eat it up.
