Russian Printer REFUSES to Print BTS ‘Propaganda’, The Kid LAROI on his ‘first’ Bieber Performance!

The owner of a Russian printing company has been called out for refusing to reproduce images of BTS because he believes the group’s members have “a non-traditional orientation.”
 
A K-pop coffee shop called PinkyPop in Yekaterinburg, Russia said in a series of Instagram Stories this week that it placed an order to print stickers, postcards and other items with images of BTS on them.
‘We discussed all the work and details, and placed our first order,” the café explained, according to RT. “After seeing the photos of the bands BTS and Stray Kids, which they were supposed to print, they began to ignore us.”
PinkyPop shared what it said was a text exchange with the printer shop’s owner, Konstantin Papulov. In one message, he said: “I have seen them – they aren’t hiding their orientation. We won’t be printing this.”
Papulov reportedly said BTS would lead “children to become perverts” and claimed it was “stupid to support something that may leave you with no grandchildren.”
He added: “We have enough normal clients to be able to choose who to work with and who not to.” 
According to Russian entertainment website Super, Papulov told reporters the images are "LGBT propaganda."

Britney Spears has been granted the right to hire her own lawyer as she seeks to end the conservatorship she's been under for 13 years.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny signed off on the resignation of Samuel Ingham III, the court-appointed lawyer who has represented Britney since she was placed under conservatorship in 2008, and approved a request by Mathew S. Rosengart to represent Spears going forward.
Rosengart is expected to file a motion to end the conservatorship – something Ingham never did while representing Britney.
Judge Penny also allowed Bessemer Trust, the co-conservator of Spears' finances and estate, to step down.
