Saudi Arabia Uses Celebrities to Whitewash Abuses

Billions of dollars are spent hosting extravagant entertainment, cultural, and sporting affairs to provide a glitzy distraction from the Saudi government’s atrocious human rights record. On Human Rights Day, December 10, Human Rights Watch is launching the #SaudiRegrets campaign, which seeks to counter Saudi Arabia’s “image laundering” by educating actors, musicians, and athletes courted to play or perform in Saudi Arabia about the country’s rights record.
