Meanwhile, Ferguson said she is not participating because the committee in charge refused to accommodate her request to be allowed to sing Billie Holiday‘s ‘Strange Fruit’. The song is a condemnation of the lynchings of African-Americans in the late 1930s.

In a statement on her website, she said:

“I wasn’t comfortable with the song choice made on my behalf, and although I’m very blessed to have a gift that gives me amazing opportunities, as a mother and an artist, I had to defend my stance. That is why I made the decision to sing ‘Strange Fruit’ when I was invited. I requested to sing ‘Strange Fruit,’ as I felt it was the only song that would not compromise my artistic integrity and also as somebody who has a lot of love for all people, but has a special empathy as well for African American people and the #blacklivesmatter movement, I wanted to create a moment of pause for people to reflect.

“There are many gray areas about the offer for me to perform that I’m unable to share right now, but I will not be singing.”
