In BBC Radio 6 Music's Annual John Peel Lecture in 2013, the singer Charlotte Church accused the museum of gender bias, stating, "Out of 295 acts and artists in the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, 259 are entirely male, meaning that Tina Weymouth ’s part in Talking Heads makes them one of the 36 female acts." In fact, the actual percentage of woman inductees is rather very low- 8.5%. Combing all the categories, there have been 719 inductees, out of these only 61 have been women. None of which have been inducted more than once or awarded the Lifetime Achievement. Not only do women have a much lower rate of being inducted, but they also have to wait longer to get in. “Nyro…was nominated 19 years after she first became eligible. The Beastie Boys, her co-inductees, were enshrined only four years after eligibility.”
