Controversial Pop Star Banned From City After Making Soccer Icon’s Kid Cry

A U.S. pop star has broken her silence after a Brazilian soccer icon claimed that she made his stepchild cry—an incident which prompted her to be banned from performing in the nation’s most famous city.

Jorge Luiz Frello Filho Cavaliere, known as Jorginho and who plays soccer for the Brazilian club Flamengo, posted an Instagram Story on Saturday alleging that 28-year-old Chappell Roan’s security guard had chastised his wife, Catherine Harding, a The Voice U.K. alum, and her 11-year-old daughter, Ada. Harding shares Ada with her ex-partner, actor Jude Law.

Jorginho, 34, said his family had been staying at the same hotel in São Paulo as Roan, who was performing at Lollapalooza Brazil. He said his stepdaughter had smiled at the singer, who had been eating breakfast.
