Trisha Yearwood, Willie Nelson, and Others pull out of Seaworld Appearance due to Animal Abuse!

Standard

This is getting worse and worse for Seaworld, Orlando. Trisha Yearwood has now pulled out of an appearance due to the treatment of their Killer Whales. She follows acts such as Willie Nelson, Heart, and Barenaked Ladies. All of this started months ago with the Documentary release of “Blackfish” which dives into detail of the death of a Seaworld trainer by Orca Whale. Here’s the trailer:

Trisha Yearwood is the latest musical act to bail on a big music event at SeaWorld in Orlando — and we’re told it’s all over the alleged shocking mistreatment of the park’s killer whales.

Trisha follows the exits of Willie Nelson, Barenaked Ladies and Heart, all of whom pulled out because of revelations about whale abuse exposed in the CNN documentary, “Blackfish.”

As for why Trisha bailed from February’s event — Bands, Brew and BBQ — it’s a little confusing.  Our Trisha sources say the singer hasn’t seen “Blackfish,” but she’s heard all the fuss and that’s enough for her.

And that’s enough for us too.
