Here’s why you’ll see a lot of white roses at the Grammys on Sunday night

#TimesUp

Many stars have announced they will be wearing white roses to the Grammys on Sunday.

Similar to the Golden Globes when everyone wore black dresses, many artists at the Grammys will reportedly be wearing white roses to show their support for #TimesUp.

TimesUp focuses on taking down systemic workplace sexual harassment and artists from Dua Lipa to Rita Ora and Halsey – who took a stand and gave an emotional speech at the recent Women’s March (which you can watch below) have announced they too will be wearing white roses this Sunday.

So why the white rose? Well the idea behind the rose is because they symbolise resistance, as worn by none other than Hilary Clinton at last year’s presidential inauguration.

Sunday’s demonstration was organised by 15 women and will be led by Meg Harkins – the rumoured ones to watch out for at the Grammys.

We look forward to it!
