Björk fans unleashed its Chinese on Tibet

Björk has triggered the wrath of his Chinese fans after chanted "Tibet! Tibet!" At the end of a passionate interpretation of his song "Declare Independence" (Declare Independence) during a concert in Shanghai.

The daring position of the Icelandic singer at the end of his concert Sunday has had the merit of drawing public attention to the taboo subject that is the status of Tibet.

The declaration of tonitruante Björk has not been relayed by the state-owned media but the websites are full of scathing comments on the pop-star. "If she really did this, then this woman want to vomit," says a Chinese unambiguously on the popular Sina.com website.

Some spectators present at the concert felt a malaise. "The atmosphere was strange, awkward in comparison to the rest of the concert," said Stephen Gow, a British teacher who lives in Shanghai. "People do not heckled. But they left in haste gymnique international center of Shanghai," noted Gow.

Björk has used "Declare Independence"-including the words "Brandissez your flag!" - Several times as a sign of support for various causes. Last month at a concert in Japan, she dedicated the song in Kosovo.

The video clip of the song, shows the singer wearing combat bearing the flags of Greenland and the Faroe Islands, territories controls by Denmark
