Why is Salt Bae Getting Banned From Various Events?
Earlier, Salt Bae has been banned from the US Open Cup following which he is now also banned from the famous music festival Rolling Loud LA 2023.
Nusret Gökçe, popularly known as Salt Bae, is a 39-year-old international chef from Turkey, who is a globally recognised celebrity chef. Salt Bae runs a popular chain of restaurants called Nusr-Et. He owns 22 restaurants across the UK, US, Dubai and Greece. Although in the last few weeks you might have heard his name quite a lot of times, majorly because of his antics during the Fifa World cup in Qatar.
Earlier, as the Argentina players were celebrating after their victory at the FIFA World Cup 2022 final in Doha against France, Salt Bae somehow managed to enter the ground and approached Lionel Messi, for a quick picture.He tapped Messi on the shoulder to get a photo clicked with him. Though Messi shrugged him off as soon as he realised who tapped him. The Turkish chef even posed with many Argentina team members. Apart from this, he even touched the 18-carat gold Fifa World Cup trophy, which is estimated to be worth a jaw-dropping $21.3 Million around 17.6 crore in the Indian currency. If you don’t already know, as per FIFA rules, only a few of the selected people can touch the FIFA trophy, including former winners and heads of different countries.
After violating the protocols, this celebrity chef has successfully managed to get banned from the oldest and most prestigious soccer tournament in America. Salt Bae has been banned from the US Open Cup and the same has been confirmed by the official twitter handle of the U.S Open Cup. Moreover, after getting banned from the US Open Cup soccer tournament, the chef has now been banned from the famous music festival Rolling Loud LA 2023. Well, the tweet went viral on social media and the internet users started giving mixed reactions to the organisers’ decision to ban the celebrity chef from one of the most prestigious music festivals in the world.
