The concert of Uzbekistan's star Yulduz Usmanova, scheduled for May 9 in the United States, has been officially cancelled. This news sparked various discussions among the singer's fans. Zamin.uz presents the details of this decision, which has taken on a political character, and its reasons.
Concert Cancellation and Political Controversy
The concert organisers, Ocean Theatre, announced the cancellation of the event through their social media pages. The message stated that tickets could be refunded at the point of purchase, and fans were apologised to for the inconvenience caused.
Political Pressure and the Singer's Position
It emerged that the cancellation of the concert was caused by demands from a number of American politicians. Usmanova, remaining firm in her position, stated that she had no intention of apologising: "If you, Zionists, think I will ask for forgiveness, you are very wrong," said Usmanova. According to the singer, such protests and controversies are directly linked to local political processes and elections and may even have a positive impact on her popularity.
