Beyonce Knowles

Beyonce Knowles will be performing in Malaysia sometime very soon. Beyonce is determined to appear for a show to be hosted in Malaysia in October. Two years back one of her shows was called off after there were much protests threatening to disrupt the concert because of her sexy image and clothing.

Malaysia is a conservative country where a large part of the population are Muslim.  According to the rules and regulation followed by the country, every female performer will have to cover up from the shoulders to knees with no cleavage showing. There are much speculation already fueling the fire as how the  R&B superstar will present herself on the stage.

The musical show will take place at a stadium in the biggest city of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, on 25th October. Beyonce wrote on her website, “Beyonce for the first time ever has decided to make Malaysia part of her I am World Tour”.

Beyonce was scheduled for a concert in Malaysia two years ago, which she has to cancel following protest threats by Malaysia’s opposition Islamic party. The R&B superstar has to head for Indonesia instead. Her publicist has said that Indonesia is less strict when it comes to attire and behavior of a performer.

The youth vice head of the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, Sabki Yusof,have been quoted as saying that it was the government’s “responsibility to protect the people of Malaysia” from what he described as immoral Western influences. He would soon be forwarding a  protest note to the government, he mentioned.

Sabki also added, “We are not against entertainment as long as it is within the framework of our culture and our religion. We are against Western sexy performances. We don’t think our people need that”.

Earlier celebrated singers like Avril Lavigne and Gwen Stefani have performed in Malaysia under similar protest threats by conservative Muslims.
