Chvrches reacts to death threats from Chris Brown fans

Lauren Mayberry

Lauren Mayberry, the lead vocalist of the synth-pop band Chvrches, revealed that the group has sought for increased security while on tour, after receiving death threats from fans of Chris Brown.

“I will not be staying in my own home when we finish tour, because the threats we have received have reached such a scale,” the Scottish singer told The Guardian. “We have to have the police at our shows now.”

The threats started to flood the band, after Lauren and her bandmates issued a statement, criticizing their former collaborator, DJ Marshmello, for working with Chris Brown, who has a history of domestic abuse and rape allegations.

The R&B singer then retaliated online, calling Chvrches a bunch of “losers” and wished that they get hit by a “bus full of mental patients.”

Although shaken, Lauren is standing by her statement.
