According to its Islamic opposition party, the Malasyan government should cancel Avril Lavigne‘s concert  scheduled on August 29 in Kuala Lumpur, where she should start her month-long tour in Asia.

Kamarulzaman Mohamed, an official of the Pan-Malaysian Islamic party, told the media: “it is considered too sexy for us. … It’s not good for viewers in Malaysia. We don’t want our people, our teenagers, influenced by their performance. We want clean artists, artists that are good role models.”

Beyoncé had to change the location for her show scheduled to take place in Malaysia and performed instead in Indonesia, while Christina Aguilera simply chose not to perform there, due to their strict rules that apply to artists and performers. For example, they can’t jump or shout, nor can they kiss and hug on stage.

They also have to be covered from their chest to their knees, which is pretty difficult for our pop singers nowadays. Gwen Stefani had to give up many costumes so she could perform in Malaysia, as The Pussycat Dolls had to pay a US $2 900 fine for not respecting these rules to the authorities’ satisfaction.
