Rolf Buchholz, the man who holds the Guinness world record for having the most piercings, was refused entry to the Gulf city of Dubai, apparently because of airport security concerns.

Cirque Le Soir said in an emailed statement Sunday that the club did its best to get Buchholz into the United Arab Emirates on Friday but their efforts were unsuccessful.
Buchholz had been scheduled to appear at the nightclub in the Fairmont Hotel. The club opened in Dubai in 2011, and like a sister venue in London promises an over-the-top circus atmosphere to wow late-night partygoers.
Police and immigration officials at the airport did not immediately respond to requests for comment, reported The Associated Press.
