Organisers of the Aotearoa Music Awards have labelled Chris Bishop's comments as 'inappropriate' - and say they have no place at their event.
The National Party Cabinet minister's come under fire, for saying "what a load of crap" during a Stan Walker performance.
Bishop says he was criticising what he described as 'overtly political' Toitū te Tiriti flags and banners, but should have kept this thoughts to himself.
Flicks.co.nz editor Steve Newall says the organisers went on to say they are committed to creating a safe, respectful and inclusive environment.
