Canadian pop star Justin Bieber has been banned from performing in China, according to the Beijing's Culture Bureau.
In a statement, the ministry said it was not appropriate to allow in entertainers who have engaged in "bad behaviour."
The statement adds Justin Bieber is a gifted singer, but he is also a controversial young foreign singer.
The statement was issued in response to a question recently submitted by a user of the bureau's website.
Justin Bieber will be performing in Asia as part of his Purpose World Tour from September, and will be playing in Japan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Singapore and Indonesia.
