The Beverly Hills Hotel is now being boycotted by the LGBT community for the anti-gay policy of Brunei. Through the Brunei Investment Agency and Dorchester Group, the Sultan of Brunei owns the hotel, and he is also the leader of the country that has legalized stoning gay people to death. This medieval political move, and the apparent disconnect to the clientele of the Dorchester Collection of hotels was flagged by designer Brian Atwood, who used Instagram to call for the ban during fashion week in London. We discuss it on the Lip News with Lissette Padilla and Elliot Hill.
