Several artists have refused to participate in Qatar 2022

 

The 2022 World Cup in Qatar has been fraught with controversy and criticism as the country is widely known for human rights violations.

Many celebrities, celebrities and internationally renowned artists have rejected FIFA’s choice. They have blamed the organization for giving more importance to the money received than to the values ​​transmitted by this country.

Some footballers have already declared on several occasions that they will wear the rainbow flag armband in support of the LGTBIQ+ community during their performance in the World Cup, regardless of Qatar’s rules and laws.

Kahlid Salman, ambassador of the World Cup, has had to negotiate with the players and the artists that Qatar wanted to participate in its ceremony.

For the Qatari organization it has not been easy to find singers who want to participate in the opening and closing ceremonies of the event.

The organizers were very interested in getting one of the hottest artists of the moment Dua Lipa. But the Kosova singer said that she long ago decided to reject any offer from the organizers of the World Cup. “I will be supporting England from my home, and I will be delighted to visit Qatar when all the human rights they promised to uphold when they were awarded the venue for this competition are established,” said Lipa.

Rod Stewart also turned down an offer to participate in the events. They offered me a huge amount of money, more than a million dollars, for the performance, but I turned it down because I didn’t think it was right to go to a country with those ideas and values. I also think the Iranians should also stop supplying them with weapons,” Stewart said.

Although it has been difficult to find musical acts for the events, it has been revealed that some of the artists who have accepted the Qatari proposals are J. Balvin, Robbie Williams, Jason Derulo, Clean Bandit, Sean Paul, Nora Fatehi, Black Eyed Peas, Jungkook from BTS, and Nicki Minaj.
