The Chainsmokers’ member Alex Pall made inappropriate joke about China, during Ultra Music Festival’s debut edition in Shanghai Expo Park this September 9-10, 2017.
The American EDM duo comprised of Alex Pall and Drew Taggart shared a promo video of their visit at Ultra’s inaugural fesitval in China, which included an interview with a reporter of Asian descent where Alex Pall made inappropriate joke about being unwilling to bring his dog to this country.
They have since deleted the controversial video off their official media accounts, but people are still furious about Alex’s insensitive comments.
