Alec Baldwin – Philippines
Alec Baldwin, an American actor and comedian, was denied entry to the Philippines in 2009 due to a joke about human trafficking. It involved him finding a mail-order wife from Russia or the Philippines when he was between marriages. Naturally, Sen. Ramon Revilla of the Philippines didn’t see it as amusing and thought the actor was being arrogant and insensitive, which had unintended repercussions.
Alec officially apologized after the event, but the authorities would not budge, and his supporters were not happy with the government’s tough stance on the ban. However, the local populace made no formal complaints against the Philippine government’s move.
