Holly Valance Dominates Charts with ‘Anti-Woke’ Song Following GB News Turmoil

Holly Valance, known for her transition from pop star to political activist, is once again making headlines. She recently released an ‘anti-woke’ song that has sparked significant controversy and topped the music charts in Australia.

Controversy Surrounding GB News Appearance

Valance’s rise back to fame coincided with a tumultuous appearance on GB News. During her interview on “Free Speech Nation,” she made a contentious remark regarding people with learning disabilities in the context of the pandemic. This statement prompted the host, Josh Howie, to interject, apologizing for her choice of words.

Chart-Topping Hit: “Kiss Kiss (XX) My A*”

Days after the interview, Valance’s song “Kiss Kiss (XX) My A*,” a reimagining of her 2002 hit, quickly climbed to the top of the charts. The track is featured in Pauline Hanson’s film “A Super Progressive Movie” and reflects her provocative stance against what she perceives as excessive political correctness.

Lyrics That Spark Debate

The lyrics of her new single are laced with controversial statements. For example, it contains lines that challenge gender identity and critique societal norms surrounding diversity and inclusion:

• “You will respect my pronouns! Not all ladies have ovaries, some… have a p.”
• “My baby has no gender. I hope it offends ya. Don’t choke on ya woke. Joke!”
• “White guilt is embedded in my genes. Got flags in my bio, take the knee.”

Such comments have sparked accusations of transphobia and have been criticized for their perceived insensitivity.

Career Resurgence Amid Political Activism

Valance has shifted to a more conservative political stance in recent years, openly supporting Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party and frequently appearing on GB News. This political pivot marks a stark contrast to her early career when she dominated the music charts, with hits like “Kiss Kiss” and “Down Boy.”

History of Chart Success

Before her recent musical return, Valance had not released a single in the UK since 2003’s “State of Mind,” which peaked at number eight. Her original “Kiss Kiss” had previously topped the UK charts, solidifying her status as a pop icon of the early 2000s.

Conclusion

Holly Valance’s bold statements and her return to the charts with “Kiss Kiss (XX) My A*” underscore her complex journey through entertainment and politics. As debates around her lyrics continue, she remains a polarizing figure in both the music industry and the political arena.
