This is old news but I couldn't resist.
Former Police rocker Sting has been branded a 'hypocrite' for performing a show for dictator Islam Karimov's daughter.
The 58-year-old human rights campaigner performed at Gulnara Karimova's culture and arts festival. People who have disagreed with her father have been shot, and reports claim others have been boiled alive.
Craig Murray, a former UK ambassador, said that Sting is a 'hypocrite' for playing the gig.
He said: "His activism seems to have flown out the window."
However, Sting has said he is still passionate on human rights and played the gig, despite the dictator's 'appalling' past.
