Ella Eyre insists racism exists in the music industry

Ella Eyre has insisted racism “exists” in the music industry.

The 26-year-old star insisted people need to continue campaigning for change and equality across all industries and called for those in the public eye to put out “the right message”.

She told Closer magazine she thinks it's really important to that everyone in the industry takes a look at what they're doing.

Ella attended the Black Lives Matter protests in the UK this summer and found them to be very “inspiring” and “positive” and hopes the issues they raised can be taken further.
