By Marcus Vance
To understand how this stage choice developed, one must look at how the gesture shifted from spontaneous festival experiments to deliberate thematic statements across different album cycles.
| Era & Year | Core Performance Milestone | Cultural & Stage Impact |
|---|---|---|
| 2014, 2015 | Breakout Club Shows ("Talking Body") | Spontaneous flashes in intimate venues; fans circulate early cellphone clips online. |
| 2016, 2017 | Major Festivals (Outside Lands, Lollapalooza) | Mainstream media scrutiny peaks; clear confirmation that the act is an intentional feminist statement. |
| 2017, 2018 | "Disco Tits" Single Release & *Blue Lips* | Reclaims the narrative commercially; addresses industry double standards in major music interviews. |
| 2022, 2023 | *Dirt Femme* Tour (Mission Ballroom Show) | Evolves into elaborate stage costuming, vulnerability, and intentional body positivity for modern tours. |
