Sexuality concert issue again? Beyonce's the next?

Ticket for Beyonce's debut concert "I Am... World Tour" in Malaysia on 25th Oct is now open to book. This concert is gonna be hilarious. But this hooks another COMMON issue again, "Beyonce is way too sexy to have a concert in Malaysia" like two years ago, WTF!

Taken from AFP:

KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysia's conservative Islamic party called Sunday for a concert by US singer Beyonce to be banned, two years after her debut here was shelved over fears of protests by Muslim groups.

The R&B star is due to perform on October 25 at the Bukit Jalil national stadium just outside the capital, organiser Marctensia said on its website.

The Pan-Malaysian Islamic party (PAS) has campaigned against several foreign performers and in 2007, along with other Muslim groups, threatened protests that forced Beyonce to scrap her planned debut concert in Malaysia.

"We oppose the holding of such concerts and we will take action to prevent such a concert from taking place in Malaysia," PAS youth chief Nasrudin Tantawi told AFP, without specifying what action would be taken.

"This performance is not suitable for Muslims as her skimpy attire and behaviour onstage are immoral and lead to unclean behaviour," he said.

The scheduled concert is part of Beyonce's "I am..." world tour, which has seen her perform in North America and Europe, the website said. The promoters could not be reached for comment.

Performances by foreign artists frequently come under fire in Malaysia, particularly from PAS.


Look at that, "This performance is not suitable for Muslims as her skimpy attire and behavior onstage are immoral and lead to unclean behavior...". Fuck off! The concert should be labeled under "Non-Halal" then, no Muslims are allowed. Stop broadcasting all those so-called "over-exposed" TV shows or movies, as these would lead crimes. What an uncivilized thought! If a concert leads badness, think again!
