The reason? Thousands of Internet users and personalities from all over the world highlight the restrictive policies of the Emirates and the little respect for and compliance with human rights, among them Rod Stewart: “They offered me more than a million dollars 15 months ago to play. I turned it down. It didn’t seem right to go”, the British said in The Sunday Times. Dua Lipa followed in his footsteps: “I will not support the violation of the rights of the LGTBIQ+ collective by the Qatari regime.”

Shakira received harsh criticism after leaking as the headliner in Qatar and this Tuesday, her team announced that Piqué’s ex will not be in charge of opening the gala: “Shakira will not perform at the opening ceremony”. Of course, they have not yet decided if she will act at another time in the competition or participate in some other way. “Her name was as a guest artist, now she will have to send a statement to explain everything, it is not worth what the environment says”they have said in Ana Rosa’s program.
