London, Oct 03 (ANI): British comedian Russell Brand, who has a past record of being barred from several countries because of his criminal record, was denied entry to Canada last weekend, forcing him to cancel a show.
Brand, 36, took to Twitter to reveal that he was held up at immigration control and subsequently stopped from entering the country ahead of a show in Orilla, Ontario, on Saturday.
"Help! I'm gonna be late for Casino Rama show unless someone can force Canadian customs officials to let us land in Orillia!... How do you manipulate customs officials? Wasn't Hitler's father a customs officer? I'm pretty sure he was... Let me in! I must perform at Casino Rama, Orillia tonight at 9 for 5000 Canadians!," the Daily Express quoted him as posting on his Twitter page.
He later confirmed he had been forced to axe the show after he was denied entry.
"Tonight's Casino Rama show postponed. I'm sorry. I can't enter Canada. We must abolish the borders between our nations and our minds," he added.
He was deported from Japan back in May this year because of his previous drug convictions. (ANI)
