Defending the July performance, Healy said The Band " did not waltz into Malaysia" and had been invited by organisers Who Knew The Band 's political views and the nature of their shows.
Healy said The Kiss was " not a stunt simply meant to provoke the government" but an " ongoing part of The 1975 Stage Show which had been performed many times prior".
He described online anger over The Performance as " liberal outrage" and said criticism of The Band for " remaining consistent" by performing its " pro-LGBT Stage Show " was puzzling.

The frontman said the suggestion that The Kiss had just been a " performative gesture of allyship" was redundant, as " performing is a performer's job".
Healy said event organisers could not invite acts to perform and expect them to self-censor, telling the Dallas crowd: " It should be expected that, if you invite dozens of Western performers into Your Country , they'll bring their Western values with them. "
The Singer concluded by referencing strict laws in some parts of the US, telling The American crowd that critics of The Band 's actions in Kuala Lumpur " would find it abhorrent if The 1975 were to acquiesce to. . Mississippi 's perspective on abortion or trans laws".
This is not the First Time that Healy has addressed online criticism during a 1975 concert.
Last week, The Singer apologised for " actions that have hurt some people" while onstage in Los Angeles .
Earlier this year, Healy mocked American rapper Ice Spice on a podcast, mimicking Asian and Hawaiian accents and asking The Show 's hosts to do impressions of Japanese People labouring in concentration camps.
During his performance at the Hollywood Bowl , Healy said he had " performed exaggerated versions" of himself " on other stages be it in print or on podcasts… in an often misguided attempt at fulfilling the kind of character role of the 21st-century rock star".
