It seems China hasn't quite forgiven Katy Perry yet.

The singer has been reportedly denied a visa to China, ruining plans to perform at the Victoria's Secret fashion show at the end of the month. 

Perry was originally slated to perform in Shanghai, according to a report by Page Six.

The article also adds that some other models, including Gigi Hadid, have also been banned from the event.

China's grudge against Perry appears to date back to 2015, when Perry performed a concert in Taiwan in which she wore the Taiwanese flag.

Taiwan is not recognised as an independent country by China, who sees it as a breakaway state. Taiwan, which is not in the United Nations, is often barred from using its national anthem and national flag in international events too, due to pressure from the much more powerful country. Read more...

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
