Kacey Musgraves, Kelsea Ballerini call out Country Radio Stations for apparent sexist airplay rules

Country music stars Kacey Musgraves and Kelsea Ballerini took to Twitter Thursday after a Michigan-based country music station tweeted it could not play two female singers back-to-back.

It all started when Chris Willman, an editor for Variety, sent out a sarcastic tweet after hearing two female singers played back-to-back on Los Angeles-based station Go Country 105 FM.

“And then you have this station come into my Twitter feed and say, ‘No, actually, that’s a real rule,’” Willman said.
