i then tried to access ladygaga.com, searched on baidu etc and the chinese firewall didnt block anything gaga related

Oh that's good to know. I never got an update on that.

Still I find their alleged reason of banning Katy Perry extremely absurd.  It's literally a dress with flowers. It's not political. They made it political.

What exactly was the reason? What was wrong with the dress?

The look had caused controversy because the sunflower was the key symbol of a 2014 movement that protested a Chinese trade agreement that was seen as unfair to Taiwan. At one point of the concert, Perry also draped a Taiwanese flag over her shoulders. Though it might not have been her intention, the outfit and the flag-waving was seen as a politically charged gesture and caused uproar in China, which has had long-running tensions with Taiwan regarding its independence.
