  • 2010 Charity scandal

  • 2001 Grammy boycott

Answer

In 2003, The Chicks, a country music group, faced backlash and blacklisting by numerous country radio stations following lead singer Natalie Maines' critical remarks about President George W. Bush's decision to invade Iraq. Maines expressed her disapproval of the U.S. invasion during a concert in London, which sparked controversy and ultimately led to the group's music being pulled from many radio stations and their exclusion from industry events.
