AceShowbiz - Gracie Abrams has fiercely defended Dora Jar after a petition was launched calling for her replacement as Abrams' opening act for an upcoming tour. On Friday, January 24, the petition emerged on Change.org, questioning Jar's suitability based on her slow-paced music and requesting an "energetic artist or band" instead.
Abrams responded to the petition on Saturday, slamming it as "uncool and bizarre." She praised Jar's talent and expressed her excitement to share the stage with her. Abrams showed her unwavering support and urged fans to stream Jar's music.
Jar herself addressed the petition with grace and humor, stating that it did not discourage her from performing for "open-hearted fans." She acknowledged the criticism but highlighted the positive support she had received from Abrams' fanbase.
Jar's debut album, "No Way to Relax When You Are on Fire," was released in September 2024, garnering critical acclaim. She previously supported Billie Eilish and The 1975 on tour and embarked on her own successful fall tour. Despite the petition, Jar will join Abrams on her Secret of Us Tour beginning February 8 in Madrid, Spain, and continuing through March 12 in Glasgow, Scotland.
