Every nation reserves the right to keep a foreign national from entering into its country. The visa issuing authorities usually refuse a visa application if they find something wrong with the applicant. Many countries deny visa to people who are criminals or have a shady past. Celebrities although popular and famous can also be refused a visa. Here are fifteen celebrities who were denied visa in a country they were trying to visit.
13.Duane "Dog" Chapman
The reality TV show star better known as Dog The Bounty Hunter was denied a visa to The United Kingdom, not for having an embarrassing hairdo, but for a murder conviction dating back to the late 1970s. HIs wife Beth called the denial "insulting."
14.Akon
Like Lady Gaga, R&B star Akron never broke the law . In his case all that was needed to be denied a visa was that he upset the Buddhist population of Sri Lanka with a music video of scantily clad women dancing around a statue of The Buddha.
15.Amy Winehouse
The British singer who had died in 2011 was denied an American visa many times. The American authorities banned Amy Winehouse from entering the United States.
