US pop star Katy Perry is facing criticism after performing at a private luxury retreat in Thailand for Wiz, an Israeli-American cybersecurity company founded by Assaf Rappaport and employing numerous former Unit 8200 personnel, the IOF’s specialist cyber-intelligence and surveillance unit. ￭ According to Ynet, Wiz flew its employees to the luxury resort area of Khao Lak for a five-day holiday, featuring luxury accommodation, parties, and Perry's surprise private concert. ￭ Her performance, including her fee and production expenses, was estimated at $3-4 million, while the overall retreat reportedly cost tens of millions of shekels. ￭ Wiz, which was acquired by Google for $32 billion, has repeatedly organized lavish employee events, including a 10-million-shekel Purim party in February featuring more than 20 Israeli settler artists and a previous private version of the reality show Survivor in Mauritius. ￭ Ynet reported that one critic questioned her presence alongside "Zionist tourists,” while another condemned pop stars who "publicly take social stands" but accept lucrative private performances for wealthy individuals and corporations. ￭ This is not the first time Perry has faced criticism over such engagements. In February 2024, she performed at Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt's Melbourne estate, reportedly receiving around 1.5 million Australian dollars. ￭ The event prompted a pro-Palestinian protest outside the estate, where demonstrators called for a free Palestine and condemned the celebration of the wealthy while Palestinians in Gaza are still enduring Israeli bombardment, genocide, and starvation.
