Disney is facing a big problem. They canceled a red carpet event for the documentary Lilith Fair: Building a Mystery – The Untold Story.
ABC News Studios told the press about this cancellation in an email. They said there would be no red carpet for the event. They apologized for any trouble this may cause.
This news came just one day after they confirmed that stars like Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, and Mýa would attend the event.
Many people are upset about this. They want to boycott Disney and cancel their subscriptions to Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN.
The documentary shows interviews and old footage of the Lilith Fair music festival, which featured only women artists. The festival started in the late 1990s.
Lilith Fair: Building a Mystery – The Untold Story is now streaming on Hulu.
