Rockstar Energy & PayPal Withdrawing Sponsorship Of Wireless Festival Over Kanye West Headlining

Kanye West’s Stateside comeback may be pulling in crowds, but across the pond it’s a different story and the backlash is coming PayPal & Rockstar Energy is the latest to distance itself, with London's Wireless Festival organizers confirming the brand won’t appear on any event branding while Ye is headlining or going forward, according to ITV News. PayPal still plays a key role as the payments partner for Live Nation UK Festivals, offering early ticket access so yeah, this one stings. Drinks giant Diageo already pulled out, right after Pepsi backed away with even British Prime Minister Keir Starmer weighing in, calling Ye’s involvement "deeply concerning" given his past antisemitic remarks.
