"For the Grammys to give Chris Brown two performances on the music industry's biggest night of the year is like saying, 'have one performance for each year you weren't on the Grammy stage because you beat your girlfriend,' " she said.

"It's not only part and parcel of the dismissive way that the industry treats its female artists, but also indicative of its willingness to prioritize violent male performers over other performers that are equally commercially viable."

It's unfortunate but not surprising, she said, especially given the executive producer's comments that the Grammys suffered from a loss of performers because of the beating. Rightly or wrongly so, the media is the message and the messenger, she said.
