Having cancelled their Reading & Leeds performance to be a part of MTV’s “Video Music Awards” (VMA’s), not everything quite went to plan for Måneskin who were censored by MTV when performing their song “Supermodel” during the ceremony, with bassist Victoria De Angelis appearing topless.

Viewers reacted angrily at the censorship:

We are sad to announce that unfortunately due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts, we are no longer able to perform at Reading & Leeds festival this year. We love and miss the UK and all of our beloved UK fans and we’re absolutely gutted to no longer be able to play these shows.

Reading & Leeds responded with:

We are saddened to hear that Jack Harlow and Måneskin have decided to perform at an award show the same weekend they were confirmed to play Reading & Leeds.
