French singer Camélia Jordana boycotts Coca-Cola for Gaza
ALBAWABA - French singer Camélia Jordana recently made local headlines after expressing her pro-Palestine stance during a performance at the Reims Polar festival on April 4.
The singer said on stage that she hasn't drunk Coca-Cola and eaten McDonald's since Oct. 7, 2023, in solidarity with Palestine, due to the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza, which resulted in the killing of more than 51,100 Palestinians and the injuring of at least 116,000, as reported by the health ministry in the Strip.
According to French news outlet Oumma, Jordana said, "I know, I'm really radical. I haven't eaten a McDonald's since October 7, I haven't drunk a Coke since October 7."

Both Coca-Cola and McDonald's, alongside other corporations, are listed on the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement's official website for pro-Palestine activists and individuals to boycott due to having a hand in aiding Israel's aggression on Gaza.
While standing up for the Palestinian cause, Camélia Jordana also brought up boycotting the American sportswear brand, Nike, which she claimed had a hand in supporting the Uyghurs' violations of rights in China.
