Katy Perry Wears Controversial Taiwan Flag During Taipei Concert

[bayonse 6,525]

Whether intentionally or not, Katy Perry wore an outfit many took as a political statement during her recent concert in Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan.

Perry donned the flag of Taiwan as a cape while wearing a sunflower dress on Tuesday night, an outfit with two-fold pro-Taiwan imagery. Sunflowers were the key image of the Sunflower Student Movement of spring 2014, which found groups protesting a Chinese trade agreement that many saw as unfair to Taiwan. As for the flag, it's arguably a political statement in itself -- as Quartz points out, it wasn't included in the 2012 Olympic Games.

[ARTPOPchamp 292]

No new musical releases so one's gotta stay relevant somehow, guess controversy will be her answer as it is with so many others. scandal to stay relevant. 

[HEARTHUNTER 7,611]

Thirsty for controversy and clicks, I see. What a hypocrite 

At least she wore Taiwan's flag and not China's.

I hope she asked her gay friends for advice before touring in Taipei

​So she added this dress to the tour couple a weeks ago just to cause controvery lol? 

I'm sure she doesn't even have clue about this meanings, she just came to perform a concert lol not to study culture and politics.

im sure she didnt mean it as a political statement  or something  

[Morphine Prince 96,160]

LISTEN UP! This outfit was worn at other dates. People are just looking to make it a political statement. I doubt Katy even has knowledge of whatever these people are claiming. It's a Katy Perry concert. You won't get anything intellectual or controversial there.... it's just fun.
