Famous artists who are banned from several countries.

Why are some of our favorite artists banned from these countries?
We all have dream countries that we can't get out of our heads but some famous artists have faced a difficulty in having entries to some of these countries.
Some countries are known for having strict moral constructs linked to religious, political, or nationalist ideologies, which result in certain prohibitions applied in social coexistence, which have been ignored on several occasions by some artists or have been deliberately transgressed by celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and Katy Perry, among others.
UNITED KINGDOM
When Chris Brown's case of domestic violence against Rihanna became public, he was barred from entering the United Kingdom, which he had visited in 2011 for a Michael Jackson tribute concert. Similarly, Snoop Dog was involved in a riot at London's Heathrow airport in 2006. In fact, he was denied entry to Australia in the same year.
MALAYSIA
Authorities canceled some Beyoncé concerts because her outfits were deemed "too provocative." She, like Gwen Stefani, has been dubbed "obscene." The Islamic Party censored Avril Lavigne's punk pop in order to protect their youth, and the Black Eyed Peas were barred from performing after a beer brand sponsored their show because Islamic law prohibits the consumption of alcohol.
ABU DHABI
Rihanna made a serious blunder when she "inappropriately" photographed herself in front of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, earning her the title of "persona non grata" in Abu Dhabi.
RUSSIA
China and Russia both issued entry bans after Selena Gomez posted a photo of herself with the Dalai Lama on social media. She would also be barred from entering the latter country if she expressed unconditional support for the LGBT+ community.
JAPAN
When Paris Hilton flew to Tokyo for a fashion show in 2010, she was detained at Narita Airport. The singer and DJ was found to have a drug possession charge from years ago, and her visit to the city was prohibited.
INDONESIA
In Indonesia, a veto was imposed on Lady Gaga because she is "a vulgar singer who sings in panties." Even the leader of the Islamic Defense Front, Salim Alatas, warned that if she entered the country, her life could be in danger.
CHINA
China has been portrayed as one of the most difficult countries for artists to work in. Katy Perry is no longer welcome after waving a Taiwanese flag during a presentation, which enraged the leaders because the communist government of that country does not recognize it.
Lady Gaga and Selena Gomez sabotaged China's goodwill by taking photos with the Dalai Lama. Miley Cyrus, on the other hand, has been labeled a racist after making up her eyes to resemble the population in question, and Justin Bieber and Jay-Z have been labeled as bad influences on young people.
