Hmm, Mariah encourages moral degradation

KUALA LUMPUR (AFP) - Malaysia\'s opposition Islamic Party (PAS) protested the government\'s move to allow sexy American pop diva Mariah Carey (news) to hold a concert here next month, saying it would encourage moral degradation.
 

In a letter to Tourism Minister Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir, PAS youth wing said Carey\'s planned concert at a stadium in Kuala Lumpur on February 22 was also disrespectful to Muslims because it coincided with an Islamic religious holiday.


"To allow a western artist, especially Mariah Carey who is well-known for her sexy clothing, to perform on Awal Muharram is disrespecting the sensitivities of Muslims and can be seen as challenging the status of Islam as Malaysia\'s official religion," it said.


"We cannot accept such an immoral concert to be held on Awam Muharram or on any other days... it is not only an insult to Muslims but will encourage moral degradation especially among youths."


PAS youth wing noted that this was not the first time the tourism ministry had approved such concerts, noting that it also allowed major US rock group Linkin Park to perform here in October.


It called for Carey\'s concert, which is part of her "Charmbracelet" world tour, to be cancelled immediately and urged the government to apologise to Muslims, who make-up some 60 percent of Malaysia\'s 25 million population.


The government should organise more programs to benefit the Muslim community, rather than tarnish good eastern values by bringing in such "obscene and immoral culture," it added.

I hope she pulls out or they might kill her in a terrorist attack. Bastards.

I hope she inspires Muslim women there to rip off their head scarves and kick some Al Qaueda buttocks.

Could be a whole new sexual revolution.

I don\'t know why they should be concerned about an old hoochie like Mariah.  She\'s like that wild girl in school who everyone\'s seen a little too much of.

The only revolution she will be bringing to us after a couple more years of desperation for attention is "Porn Musicals"

Obscene and immoral culture. Well F*** him. If they dont like how we do things then dont let their kids go. Not our fault. While im not a huge fan of Mariah, (eventhough id hit it), i think she should be able to perform wherever. If nobody shows up then nobody cares. "Tarnish good EASTERN values" my ass. They are as anal about american culture as those damn women against videogames over here.

Sheesh.

Bomb\'em. j/p (wheres the Megadeath guy smilie when you need him)

I hope she doesn\'t pull out or they might not kill her in a terrorist attack. Now that would be scary.

While I don\'t care for their reasons why she shouldn\'t come, I agree that she shouldn\'t be allowed anywhere and everywhere. She\'s not doing charity for Christ\'s sake, she\'s just a singer for ... da da da ... profit. They can say no if they don\'t want her plastic to perform.

I really wish every country would keep her from performing.

Dudes, you cant deny it, there is no way anyone wouldn\'t hit it if they got the chance.



She gets criticized so much over many different things but I think she is really unique. She has the balls to make the music she wants to regardless of whats hot and has the balls to stand up and dress however she wants to. To me she doesn\'t seem to be swayed by what people think of her and i think thats great. No one can deny that her voice is amazing and that she has real talent. I think she has gotten to the point of so much fame that people look at her like another MJ when really she\'s just a normal person.

I\'d hit it, but that doesn\'t mean she can automatically do what she wants and perform whereever she wants...

But she can perform some oral on me.

Hmm I don\'t think the problem is her doing whatever she wants, I think the bigger issue here is having a country that controls its people the way they do.

People should have a right to do and see what they like regardless of what other people think.

True that. As long that it\'s not M.C.
