Here’s Why Beyoncé, Katy Perry, and 42 Other Celebrities Were Banned From These Countries

Mike Tyson – New Zealand

New Zealand officials revoked the renowned heavyweight champion boxer Mike Tyson’s visa due to his 1992 assault charge. The document was issued to him sooner than anticipated because he was scheduled to speak at Auckland’s 2012 Day of Champions event.

However, women’s anti-violence organizations banded together after learning about his 1992 sentence to protest Tyson’s admittance into the lovely nation.

The associate immigration minister also made Tyson’s visa cancellation public.
