Malaysia Bans Ke$ha Concert! Too Hot?

Malaysia has decided that Ke$ha concerts are just bad for their country and have banned her concerts.

The Malaysian authorities have banned a planned concert by the pop singer Kesha after deciding that it would hurt their cultural and religious sensitivities.

This decision came at the very last moment on the eve of the concert the concert organizer Livescape said that it received a latter about the decision. The concert was to be held Saturday at a Kuala Lumpur stadium.

The Ministry of Communications and Multimedia said separately that it was rejecting the application for Ke$ha to perform for reasons of religion and culture.

The ministry’s statement did not elaborate. Ke$ha, whose hits include “Tik Tok” and “Die Young,” has songs that make explicit references to sex and liquor.

Last month, Malaysian officials also barred a performance by American metal band Lamb of God, accusing the Grammy-nominated group’s work of being blasphemous.

Ke$ha and her team had previously agreed to modify their planned show in Malaysia, including making changes to her song lyrics and wardrobe, to comply with the government’s general guidelines for performers, Livescape said in its statement.

Livescape said it was losing more than 1.1 million ringgit ($350,000) because of the ban. It urged the Malaysian government to “engage in a productive dialogue” with concert promoters to prevent similar incidents.
