last sunday, during the Oscars gala 2019, a Chinese television network censored Lady Gaga.

After winning at the BAFTAs, the Golden Globes and the Grammys, On Sunday he was up for two Oscars alone and six for the film. Although she missed the award for Best Actress, that ended up in the hands of Olivia Colman, managed to win the award for Best Song for 'Shallow'. However, There are those who could not see the singer during the gala.

And a Chinese television network, TV Wizard, decided to censor her by pixelating her face in each of her appearances, even when he was giving his acceptance speech to the entire world. But not, It is not because Lady Gaga showed too much or made any obscene gesture during her moments on camera..

Apparently, It is a permanent veto to the one that gives life to 'Ally’ for his meeting with the Dalai Lama in the summer of 2016. That's what Lady Gaga's Chinese fans have speculated that, very angry, They have criticized the chain's decision on networks.

They also altered the words of Rami Malek's speech by changing "gay man"” by “special group”. For now, Mango TV has not made any statement in this regard..
