Here’s Why Priyanka Chopra Has Landed Herself In Hot Water For Getting Her Hair Done

Fans are NOT happy

It looks like Priyanka Chopra has landed herself in some preeetty hot water this week, as she is being accused of breaking lockdown restrictions in the UK after attending a salon to get her hair done.

In pap photos shared by MailOnline, Priyanka can be seen arriving to the Josh Wood Colour salon in Notting Hill along with her mother. Soon after two police officers can also be seen arriving, ensuring that all rules were being adhered to inside the premises.

After the pictures were shared, many fans understandably became upset at the idea of yet another celebrity/influencer flouting the rules. One person wrote online:

Why are the rules different for you, who do you think you are?

Getting so fed up with ‘celebrities’ thinking they don’t have to do this lockdown like the rest of us. Why should Priyanka Chopra be able to get her hair done. Why does some swanky london salon think it’s above the rules.

Priyanka is currently living in London with her husband Nick Jonas.

She is shooting for a new movie, and after the backlash, it wasn’t long before a spokesperson released a statement on her behalf explaining why she attended the salon. It read:

“Following government guidance, Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ hair was coloured by Josh Wood for the purpose of the film she is currently shooting”

“The salon was opened privately for the production and everyone involved had been tested and followed both the DCMS working guidelines and the film production regulations”

“As per Film London and current government advice, by continuing to follow the approved COVID-19 guidance, Film and TV production can continue in the Capital and locations can continue to accommodate shoots and recces that are carried out in-line with the guidance.”

Following the statement, some of the backlash has settled down. While Priyanka is yet to address the situation on her personal social media accounts.
