In response, Recording Academy president Neil Portnow told Variety: “It has to begin with … women who have the creativity in their hearts and souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, producers, and want to be part of the industry on the executive level.”

He went on to offer some absolutely moronic advice, saying: “[They need] to step up because I think they would be welcome.

“I don’t have personal experience of those kinds of brick walls that [women] face but I think it’s upon us – us as an industry – to make the welcome mat very obvious, breeding opportunities for all people who want to be creative and paying it forward and creating that next generation of artists.”

Naturally, womankind wasnn’t happy with Portnow’s comments – at all. And now Pink – as in, yes, she of Just Like A Pill fame – has penned him a furious handwritten note, which she has shared on Twitter.
