While on stage, Healy stopped his performance to answer questions shouted at him from the audience, one being \u201cWhy did you deactivate?\u201d To which he replied cheekily, \u201cThe era of me being a fucking asshole is going to come to an end,\u201d followed by a roar of applause. <\/p>\n

Healy went on to say that while he is grateful to be able to do a job he is passionate about, he feels like he is constantly performing. \u201cI can\u2019t perform off stage anymore. I\u2019ve had enough. Haven\u2019t you guys had enough?\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Healy is not known to be the most palatable celebrity, accumulating great controversy on this tour over everything from kissing fans and eating raw meat on stage to condemning other entertainer\u2019s paid meet-and-greets as \u201cdisgraceful.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Most recently, the singer was under fire<\/a> in February for his appearance on The Adam Friedland Show. In the episode, Healy joins hosts Adam Friedland and Nick Mullen in joking about up-and-coming rapper Ice Spice\u2019s race. The trio guesses that she could be Hawaiian, Inuit or Chinese, followed by racist impressions by the hosts. <\/p>\n

The episode was removed from Spotify and Apple Podcasts, leading to speculation that the backlash surrounding the incident may have been the final straw to push Healy into considering what he says before he says it.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Long-time listeners of the band aren\u2019t buying it just yet, hypothesizing that this is just Healy\u2019s dramatized way of promoting another project. Other members of The 1975, Adam Hann, George Daniel and Ross MacDonald have deleted social media accounts alongside their frontman in the past, always to mark a \u201cnew era\u201d of music.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThe man just needs a social media break. It\u2019s totally fine. He\u2019s done it before,\u201d said one user in the band\u2019s subreddit<\/a>. \u201cHe will be back when he is ready. Let\u2019s just be happy that he is doing whatever he is gotta do to stay happy and healthy\u201d<\/p>\n
