Music stars have come out in support of a singer who asked for all clips of her Glastonbury performance to be removed after she saw a wave of online "personal abuse". Singer-songwrtier Billy Nomates had performed at the festival on Friday afternoon.
But after clips were shown on BBC Radio 6's social media channels, she was sent a number of abusive comments from online trolls. As a result the 33-year-old, who real name is Tor Maries, asked BBC to remove all footage, deleted all her social media accounts and said she wouldn't be performing again this year.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, before later deleting her entire profile, she said: "The level of personal abuse on @bbc6music socials for goin to work today is insane. I've asked for all footage to be removed.
