DJ Pyro Tiger: Bottle Girl Application Highlights Sexism in Music Industry

New York DJ Pyro Tiger Recounts Sexism in the Industry: 'Handed a Bottle Girl Application Instead of a Gig' In a recent interview on New York’s Z100 radio station, DJ Pyro Tiger revealed the pervasive sexism she has encountered in her career. Tiger, whose background includes modeling, described a particularly disheartening incident where, upon seeking a DJ position at a club, she was instead presented with a bottle girl application. "They constantly try to mold me," she shared, expressing frustration at the expectation that her appearance, rather than her skills, should be the focus. The incident underscores the challenges women face in male-dominated industries, where their talent is often overshadowed by gendered expectations. Tiger’s account highlights the need for greater inclusivity and equal opportunities in the music industry. Her perseverance, despite facing such obstacles, serves as an inspiration to other women striving for success in similar fields. The full interview can be viewed on Z100’s YouTube channel.
