Brad Paisley Reacts To Removal of Breastfeeding Mom At Concert
. The Chula Vista Police Department, however, issued a statement that the woman (Megan Christopherson) and her baby were removed not because of breastfeeding but because the baby was in potential danger from the noise and crowds. "The Chula Vista Police Department's involvement in the incident was due to the welfare and safety of the infant and not due to a mother's legal right to breastfeed in public," the statement read. Christopherson "was near the stage wall area and mere feet away from the speakers." In an interview that aired Friday (July 18) on CBS Radio's KFRG in Riverside, Calif., Paisley spoke for the first time about the incident-and he's siding with the police on this one. "It sure seemed that she did the absolute wrong thing," Paisley said. "She's probably picked the wrong fight." Paisley made it clear that he "nothing to do with" the incident, and in fact he "never saw it happen," referring to the point when the woman was confronted and then removed from the show. "I was somewhere else on the stage at that point." But, he said, "from what I was told by the authorities, according to the police it had nothing to do with breastfeeding at all. Nothing." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
