Thai pop star Pichayapa ‘Namsai’ Natha has issued an apology after causing outrage by wearing a Nazi swastika t-shirt while performing on TV.

 

The 19-year-old singer, who is a member of the girl group BNK48, took to the stage alongside her bandmates for a televised rehearsal earlier this week.

 

Images from the appearance soon went viral, with many criticising Natha’s highly inappropriate and offensive choice of outfit.

 

Among criticism levelled at the star, Israel’s deputy ambassador to Thailand Smadar Shapira expressed her “shock and dismay” over the item of clothing.

This incident reminds me of Guns n Roses frontman Axel Rose wearing a Charles Manson T-shirt some years ago. As with anyone else, celebrities can make errors of judgement.
