  • Stormzy has responded to the recent backlash he has faced after he teamed up with McDonald's to create 'The Stormzy Meal.' The Vossi Bop singer, 30, (real name Michael Ebenezer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr.)announced his menu collaboration with McDonald's last week.

Stormzy has addressed the backlash he received following his collaboration with McDonald's, which led to the deletion of a pro-Palestine post from his social media. The controversy arose after McDonald's Israel provided free meals to the Israeli military, prompting criticism from those supporting the Palestinian cause. Stormzy, known for his activism, faced accusations of hypocrisy for partnering with a brand that some view as supporting actions against Palestine. In response, he explained that the collaboration was part of a broader initiative to support black British culture, and he emphasized his commitment to social justice issues, stating that his actions are often misinterpreted or taken out of context. He also expressed regret over the deletion of the post, clarifying that it was not intended to silence his stance but was a result of the complexities involved in managing his public image and partnerships.
