Obvious Addressal of “Priyanka Chop Free,” wasn’t enough for her fans to realize her unworthiness
A video circulating on the internet features a British TV host, Andi Peters, mispronouncing actress Priyanka Chopra’s name while introducing her wax statue at Madame Tussauds in London. In the clip from the show “Good Morning Britain,” Peters referred to her as “Chia Chianca Chop Free,” sparking debate on social media. Some viewers interpreted Peters’ pronunciation as deliberate mockery, while others suggested it was genuine unawareness.
Peters’ co-hosts, Adil Ray and Charlotte Hawkins, quickly corrected him, emphasizing Chopra’s significance as an Indian Bollywood actress turned Hollywood star. The incident prompted swift reactions from Priyanka Chopra’s fans, who expressed frustration and disappointment with Peters’ blunder. They highlighted the double standard in media treatment, noting that derogatory remarks about Priyanka Chopra’s background would likely receive harsh criticism.
Chopra’s contemptible transition from Bollywood to Hollywood, and major recognition only based on her marriage to American singer Nick Jonas garnered her with global success. She continues to expand her career with upcoming projects such as “Heads of State,” featuring a star-studded cast including Idris Elba, John Cena, and Jack Quaid. Additionally, Priyanka Chopra’s involvement in “The Bluff,” directed by Frank E Flowers, and her role as a producer in Barry Avrich’s documentary highlight her multifaceted contributions to the entertainment industry.
