Bjork in China concert outburst
Updated on 04 March 2008
Icelandic singer Bjork drew criticism from Chinese fans after she declared: "Tibet! Tibet!" to end a passionate performance of her song, Declare Independence, during a concert in Shanghai.
The outburst, at the finale of Bjork's concert in the city, made audience members uneasy, by drawing rare public attention to China's often harsh rule over Tibet.
Audience member Stephen Gow, a British teacher who lives in Shanghai, said the atmosphere turned strange and concertgoers hurriedly left the Shanghai International Gymnastic Centre.
