The 1975 are being asked to pay £2m in damages for allegedly breaking contract terms during a controversial show in Malaysia.

Last month, the British band’s performance at Good Vibes Festival in Kuala Lumpur was cut short when frontman Matt Healy kissed bassist Ross MacDonald while criticising the country’s anti-LGBT+ laws, under which homosexual acts are illegal.

......

Future Sounds Asia (FSA), organisers of the festival, alleged that the band had given “a pre-show written assurance” they would adhere to “all local guidelines and regulations” and should “acknowledge their liability and compensate FSA for damages incurred”.

FSA claimed that Healy was to blame for the event cancellation due to his “abusive language, equipment damage and indecent stage behaviour”, and the organisation’s lawyers confirmed to PA that they are asking for £2,099,154.54 to be paid in compensation.

......

Following the incident ...... The 1975 then cancelled two tour dates, at the We the Fest in Jakarta, Indonesia, and at the Taipei Music Centre in Taiwan.

They already left the country. Of course they won't pay. It's the agent that brought them in who will bear the cost.
