Prominent LGBT rights activist, Benjamin Xue, attended the concert of the gay Australian singer at The Star Vista venue with five friends. He told Gay Star News that a security guard told them to put away their Pride flag. Xue said security also told a group of girls behind them to stop waving the Pride flag. ‘We were told not wave the flag and keep it low. People with other pride flags were also told not to wave it,’ Xue said. ‘We brought it as we wanted to enjoy the concert’ and ‘we waved the flag as we wanted to support Troye’.
