TIL Desk Bollywood/ A T-shirt flaunted by Priyanka Chopra for a magazine cover flaunted the message of being a traveller over a refugee, immigrant or outsider — and generated a mixed response on social media. A spokesperson of the magazine has explained that the idea was to tell the world to stop labelling people.
The magazine issued an official statement on Tuesday saying that the message was interpreted in a wrong way, and they wanted to suggest that “the beauty of a world” is in its diversity. The statement read: “At Conde Nast Traveller, we believe that the opening up of borders and the breaking down of walls can help us discover the world, and open up our minds and hearts.
“So, when we had actress Priyanka Chopra wear a T-shirt we created on the cover of our sixth anniversary issue, we had a point to make. And it’s not about privilege. or fashion.” The actress, who features in American TV series Quantico wore a white tank top that read “Refugee, Immigrant, Outsider, Traveller” with all but the last word crossed out for the cover.
