Actually, several performers from England (MIA, Amy Wino) and other countries have been denied visas to perform in the US in the past few years. I'm sure it's not permanent or personal.

So he's now permanently banned from the country? As in forever? Wouldn't that be a bit harsh?

visa should be lowerscae. Visa [uppercase] nomally denotes a brand of credit card. Was Girl George denied a MasterCard? American Express cancelled his black card?

This is really just retaliation for the denial of Martha's visa.

Anybody who has cleaned our streets dutifully upon orders should be allowed in the country! He's shown himself to be cooperative and worthy, no? Not that I'd go to his concert.
