Jessi Spills the Tea on Unbelievable Festival Difficulties

The event was described as a summer music festival where attendees used water guns to splash the audience. In a humorous tone, Jessi jokingly referred to it as "the worst," but her remarks were grounded in valid concerns.

"So WATERBOMB, for people who tune aren’t familiar, it’s festival during the summer- a music festival- there are water guns and everything, you’re splashing the audience."

She acknowledged the festival's beauty and the incredible experience it offers, but she also highlighted the difficulties it presents for performing artists.

"Oh god, it’s the worst... It’s beautiful, like, performing the event is amazing, but the artist - it’s so difficult because everyone in the front row has water guns. These water guns are so accurate."

According to Jessi, performing at the event is amazing, but it becomes challenging due to the water guns wielded by the enthusiastic front-row audience.

She emphasized the accuracy of these water guns, making it difficult for artists to avoid getting drenched during their performances.
