South East-Asian country ,Malaysia on Tuesday banned a planned concert by American singer Erykah badu after a photograph appeared showing the Grammy-winning singer with the Arabic word for Allah written on her body.
The popular singer was scheduled to perform Wednesday in Kuala Lumpur, but some Muslim groups said Badu was an unsuitable role model for young Malaysians after seeing a publicity photo of her with what appeared to be temporary tattoos of the word Allah on her bare shoulders.
A government committee that monitors concerts decided to forbid Badu's show because she has "offended the religious sensitivities" of Muslims by posing with such tattoos, an Information Ministry official .
The 41-year-old, Dallas-born singer had already arrived in Malaysia. "She can remain here as a tourist but will not be allowed to perform", the official said.
Information Minister Dr.Rais Yatim confirmed the decision on his Twitter account.
Denise Williams of Rhythm & Melody (R&M),the group which won the first edition of the Vodafone Icons Divas Edition, has denied being booted from the group. Rumours were rife early last week that she had been dumped from R&M which is yet to make any significant impact in the Ghanaian music industry.
The reports claimed Denise’s outspokenness could have accounted for her dismissal. The other two group members Stephanie Lindsey Baaba and Natasha Dedey Mann were reported to have started secret location recordings with Denise’s replacement. Denise however told The Globe that the reports were just rumours. She said “as far as I’m concerned,
I’m still a part of the group. I have not heard anything from Vodafone so I guess it’s not true. ” She said she had no altercations with organisers of the Vodafone Icons show to merit her sacking. The group’s manager, Ruddy Kwakye is also reported to have been given the sack. Video director Nana Kofi Asihene is said to have replaced Ruddy.
