Prime Minister Scott Morrison has warned global music superstar Kanye West that he will have to be fully vaccinated if he wants to go ahead with his Australian concert tour.
West, who has legally changed his name to “Ye”, has a series of concerts planned for March but his vaccination status is unclear. In November, he said he had received one dose but in another interview he likened vaccines to the devil’s work. Earlier, Trade and Tourism Minister Dan Tehan said the decision on whether to grant West a visa rested with Immigration Minister Alex Hawke and that he would look at that “application like he does for other visa applications”.
Victorian Health Minister Martin Foley said Mr West was welcome to come to Australia “under an appropriate visa, subject to the terms of those visas”, like any other global figure.
