Regional entertainment figures are facing various legal and professional controversies. Singer Jelena Karleuša addressed the cancellation of a concert in Vodice, Croatia, claiming the decision resulted from political backlash due to her support for Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić. She stated that media coverage treated her as a “political threat rather than a musician.”

In Belgrade, Croatian starlet Ava Karabatić was detained by police for violating foreign resident regulations. This occurred following an incident where she reportedly sought assistance at an embassy after alleging domestic violence by a partner who is currently being sought by authorities.

Music industry disputes also involve Tea Tairović, who has faced criticism from colleagues Saška Karan and Nataša Đorđević regarding the release of a version of the song ‘Golube’, with accusations that she failed to properly credit the song as a cover. Additionally, the divorce of singer Dragana Mirković and businessman Toni Bijelić remains a subject of public interest following claims involving their children.
